Driving your dream C4?
With all the C4s in all the combinations of color, equipment, coupe or vert, special editions, etc...are you driving your "dream C4"? Is it the "perfect" C4 for you?
Or, is your C4 just a place holder for now? Is there a particular one you wish you had instead?

My C4, Polo Green LT4 with a tan int. , bolt-ons, and a lot more mods in the works. Love it to DEATH, even tho it needs a bit of work (paint is getting rough, carpet, weatherstrip)
Dream Vette: 95 Dark Purple Metallic ZR1.

Nope, but i'm making it my dream C4 
Its the right color (needs paint though) and the interior needs work and IMO could use probably another 100 ponies and then it would be my dream C4.

Dream C4? Probably not. I've got 92 4l60 coupe. Definetly not my dream car, but it's mine, it's affordable and runs great. I fix things as they need them and am slowly adding the mods I want. I love the fact that it's 15yrs old. C4s are getting pretty scace around here. All i ever see are C5s and C6s.

I think I got my dream car (90 Red Coupe) the first try, newer style interior and classic C4 exterior. Got alot of things done to it so far, but still needs carpet and new paint, putting the 00' C5 wheels on it next week. I don't get to drive it but maybe once every two weeks, but everytime I am behind the wheel I love it that much more. Amazes me how many looks it still gets or its maybe because these cars are increasingly rare in this area. You hardly see anything older than a 93 or 94 around here.

I love the one I drive, I think it's 
I'd really love to have a 93 - 95 Z in addition to the 90...the more the merrier!

I love my 85 with Z51 and 4 plus 3. Fun car to drive. I bought it primarily to take to long distance car shows that I wouldn't drive my older Vettes to. Is it my dream C4? No, I think a Callaway Twin Turbo with Aerobody would be but then I wouldn't drive it as much. So I like what I have.

I bought the exact Vette I was looking for: dark red metallic '89 with beige interior and a 6spd.
Of course, as much as I love my '89, my dream C4 is a black on black 1990 ZR1.

Interesting repsonses, here. I'm probably like a lot of owners in that I really like my 87 coupe (my 88 vert is at my brother's place out of state right now and I have yet to physically take possession of it).
I will probably really like my 88 silver, (black guts black top vert), but I think my dream C4 vette (as of right now, subject to change) is a 1990 silver or blue steel vert six speed with black int and top. It must have the stock wheels, which, IMO, are the best C4 wheels that were made.
May sell one or both for the right vette.
