Although I owned a 1985 from 1985-1990, I always liked the look of the "squirkle" tail lights like on that C4 better and I STILL like that clamshell hood feature. HEY--- THERE'S an IDEA for the custom car guys--- a clamshell hood C7

nobody better every say that the C7 dash was not inspired by the C4. There is not one ounce of originality to the dash....but I like it.

That's a lot of retina searing yellow!!!

That C7 really looks good in yellow. I have one as my computer desktop background.

Great pics. Thanks for sharing.

Actually, a couple of Corvette owners did. But most people were just taking in the whole car for the first time and probably had no idea.

Ah! Which car is the new one? I will always have a soft spot for the C4, first Corvette I really liked and first Corvette I owned.

Two nice vettes Your C4 is in great condition. Hate how so many C4 owners don't take care of their vettes.

My 1994 C4 has 22,000 original miles on it with the original LT1 bored to 383 and equipped with a vortex supercharger and a bunch of other goodies putting out right at 500 to the rear wheels. It's a beast!

That is because the C4 is at that "bottoming out" phase pricewise. After a while the prices for well-maintained C4s will go up enough to justify most of the others being reconditioned.

The dashes look remarkably similar. And even the engine cosmetics

Well...they both are Corvette's and all....

Crazy what happens if you look at a Porsche from 1975 and a Porsche from 1995 and a Porsche from now....very similar...no originality...[/sarcasm]

My point is they totally got away from the c4 with the c5/6 and now they've come back to that look(dash/engine cosmetics and heck even engine designation)
