Drove the C4 the other day.

I drove it to a local cruise in the other weekend and a friend took some great pics of it. It's my 1988 Coupe that I still have in the garage.

Looks great. I like those wheels on it.

Very nice. Both your C4 and your C5.

They have very different "feel" to the generations that I like switching back and forth. Any impressions between the two?

There is very little feel the same between the two, The C4 is very tame(240hp) compared to my C5(650-700hp). The C4 does have a much tighter "cockpit" feel in the drivers seat. But the C4 does give a better tighter steering/handling feel. But it's not much just barely. Brakes on the C4 are very lacking compared to my C5, which can get me in trouble at times when I forget about it and barely stop before careening thru a stop sign.

Cabin space is limited more by two fold when compared to the hatch compartment in back of the C5.

I love the C4 and that's why it stays in my garage.
