Question about C4
I have a C5 and am thinking about picking a C4 as a DD. What year did the C4 go from round to square tail lights?

89 was the last year for the "tuck butt" 90 started the new rounded rear bumper.
NOTE: Did the 90 ZR-1 have an early front bumper and a later rear bumper?

I just checked the black book. First year for rectangular tail lamps was in 1991.

Yes, the 90's have the classic style front and the progressive rear.

i like both styles... it was a nice change from the early to the late generation c4.... they did it with the c3's also i believe in the mid 70's... but not sure what year the back end got rounded.
