C4 Corvette Overview: 1983-1996 What to Look For

C4 Corvette Historical Overview - an Iconic American Sport Car The fourth iteration of Chevrolet's renowned Corvette sports car, the C4, was produced from 1983 to 1996. Among the improved features of this model was the return of the convertible option, as well as the inclusion of higher-performance engines, like the 375 hp LT5 found in the ZR-1. On March 1990, the ZR-1 established a new benchmark for the highest land speed achieved over a 24-hour and 5,000-mile duration by achieving a speed of 175 mph.

1995 Corvette Information, C4 Corvette Information, Corvette Features
Story by K. Scott Teeters The Corvette hobby is a sub-culture of the larger car-culture. Within the Corvette community, there are many sub-cultures where owners do different kinds of things with their Corvettes. Some race their Corvettes and within the racer crowd, there are different kinds of racing. Some start out personalizing their Vette that leads to all-out custom Corvettes. Others give their Corvette a pampered life with heated and air-conditioned garages; the cars never get wet and are cleaned after every drive. On the opposite side are the Vettes that are driven, repaired, and enjoyed for hundreds or thousands of miles. At the extreme opposite end of the daily drivers are the Vette Vues Tri-Power, NCRS Top Flight, Bloomington Gold, and Triple Diamond Award Corvettes. These Corvettes look like…
