in Forum: C4 General Discussion
1962 C1 HODURAS MAROON 327ci 340hp, 4-spd, Red INTERIOR, BLK CONV TOP --- BECAUSE I LOVED THAT 2 YEAR BODY STYLE AND WANTED TO STEP UP FROM MY 1961 WITH THE 283ci ENGINE
It is the '96 Collector Edition for me! Under rated in power and just looks sweet!! 😋

63 Split Window Coupe, upgrade to disk brakes and AC, in Black. I vividly remember, as a child, one of my Dad's racing buddies bringing his SWC to the raceshop. It was the most magnificent machine I had ever seen, in terms of automobiles. I still feel that way today. I just picked up a 1986, 28,000 original mile car. Beautiful in Medium Brown Metallic. I have owned C2s, C3s, C4s, and a C5. Looking forward to getting back in this C4.
Best,
Scott

The jury is still out on the C7s, styling-wise for me anyway.
And I understand why they didn't put a manual tranny in the C8s but that's a deal breaker for me.
I’m right there with you on the C2 and C3! I didn’t like the C7 at first, but now I have one, and it’s my favorite Corvette (I have 3).
Have you driven a C8? I think you’ll find it an enjoyable drive, even with no “real” standard.
The styling on the C7 is beginning to win me over. VERY edgy and "bad@$$" in the right color. IMHO the C8 styling is an extension of the C7. Both have a LOT of European influence. Have not had the opportunity to be in the cockpit of a C8 yet but understand they are quite the ride.

Ha, When the C5 came out, I said No Way! I now own a 2003. But the 7s & 8s. I don't know. It's getting tougher to accept the style. So far the 6s are as far as I'm willing to go. I would like to own the 13.
I own a 93 Annv. Coupe 58k love it. I can work on it plus I like the challenge when there’s a problem that I can usually fix. I also have a 12 C6 grand sport conv. Nice car but to many electrical parts that I cannot repair or service. So far so good but when equipment starts to fail it’s dealer only. Plus once they become to old dealer doesn’t want to work on them.
Hello, I'm with you on electronics. I'm a old wrench puller. The new "MECHANICS" do not Fix things, they Replace things. To much electronics today. Throw away parts are the norm. Wait for a ship from another country comes in and get a new one. Rebox it, and send it to the customer. Sad but true.
