For a price like that, I think I might be "allowed" to have two. Wow.

I dont think you have to cut the springs, their is a couple plastic or rubber wedges or something that need to come out.

Coil overs is always an option but its expensive as hell.

Great deal car looks super. I don't think the ride will be affected buy the lowering of the car.

Can't figure for the life of me why he would lower this thing considering they ride like a go cart anyway. Weird.... Hopefully it won't be too much of a nightmare to change back to stock.
Because lowered vettes look awesome. Non lowered C4's look like 4x4's.
And my 91 A4 rides no different now than it did before I lowered it.

By the way, beautiful car!

Negative camber = perfect for racing My current vette has it and my second one will, too.

And lowering a vette = looks and also handles even better. Harder to get in and out of though.

Nice Riide, looks great
I think redoing the front ride height is probably a huge pain (read many threads about it) but I can appreciatte making it fact. original.

Wow! That's a very sweet price for a very sweet car! Congrats on the new addition to the family. I've had an '84 and an '88 vert before, and now have both a '92 vert and a '94 coupe in the garage.

When it comes to bang for the buck, nothing beats a C4.
