Default My First C4

Well I got my first C4 on friday and I love it. Nothing super, just an 86 coupe. 4+3, Z51, dark red metalic. Now I have to work on my new signature.

Cya all around with plenty of questions.

Thanks for all the comments!

I still have the 80 for now. To compare the two, the 80 will slam you back into the seat harder but I knew that when I bought the 86. I lik'em both. It makes the garage really look nice
