It's just the way he thinks
He might be right.-
He might be wrong.-
I don't like blue,he likes blue
I like chocolates,he does not...
12 Years of production can't be wrong....
Do you think the C6 design will last 12 years ?
Answer that

 

That is why there are menus at the restaurants. If you are happy with the C4 that is what counts.I like all Vettes. I still have not formed an opinion on the C6-I personally like the hidden headlights.

 

I bought my 95 because I love the style of the C4. I love it more now than when I bought it. I get a ton of really nice comments about it. Everybody has their own tastes. I think the C4 looks just as good or better than the C5 and C6. But I love them too and would love to have one of each (hope to one of these days!). Basically get what you like and enjoy the heck out of it. tdb

 

I like all Vettes also. I like my C4 the day I bought it, and I like it even more everyday I get to drive it. It may be 24 years old, but I like it. But it makes me... I would like to have a C5 Z06 though, but that will hopefully come later.

 

I don't take everyones opinions seriously.

Like the real reason any of those posters don't like the new ZR1 is ,'They can't afford to buy one'.

That's the long and short of it.

 

Doesn't bother me in the least

 

The link is referring to the 09 ZR1 (not the hyphenated C4 ZR-1.

But, I gotta tell ya...If you want to hear more C4 bashing than you'll hear just about anywhere else, come to this forum!

Maybe it's b/c I have gray hair, but I like um all. I view them from the perspective of what they were in their day, Each of them was a top drawer performer. In the Corvette you can see the progression of technology from one "C" to another, and even w/in a model series.

Something else...Reading posts (gripes) on the C4 on this forum, it seems to me that it is primarily from one perspective only - that being 1/4 mile performance. To hear (read) some people "talk", it is the only measure of performance an a car's worth!

Well, nothing against drag racing, but if that is your "thing" why are you running / comparing an independent suspension car against a straight axle car in the first place?? That aside, even in a drag race the performance of a stock L98 Vette against a stock car of it's era is no slouch! Now, if you want to open up the window to include road courses, the Vettes were excluded from the SCCA races in 1989 to "level the field". (the Challenge cars - w/ L98s, BTW - never lost a race)

IMO, I think the C4's problem is it is new enough (or looks new enough) to be included in the realm of today's cars and is unavoidably compared to today's technology. And, it isn't old enough to be considered and "old classic" the way the C1, C2, or C3 are today: All-out performance nuts look down on the C4's two-decade old technology - mostly from 1/4 performance alone - and scoff. The Vette is sooo much more than just a 1/4 mile sled.

Taken on the whole, a well maintained, clean and cared for C4 is a hand full of fun - even by today's standards. And, if performance is what rings your chimes, the C4s respond well to mods.

OR...you could buy the ZR-1...



and fear not!

P.

 

if it wasnt for the c4 he wouldnt have his c6. c4 is looked at like the c3 use to. 10 yrs ago no one wanted a c3 and they was dirt cheap. now they have doubled in price a couple yrs jus like the c5's are gettin cheap. c4 is the 1st corvette that used technology, computers aluminum, which was never heard of in cars.

 

None of those comments bother me.
What does bother me is my butt.
I had chinese take-out last night.

 

MIke, 2 bowls of Grapenuts late last night and strong coffee this morning.
Friggin Volcano butt like a ****. BOOM

Anyway-


Out of left field in a C6 Gen comes....

As Paul saud the only place Ive seen Vettes really bashed is at Corvette Forum.

Sounds like the OP is jealous of the new Z. Its a bad to the bone ride, the body could have used a little waking up IMO. I have to go back and read some more.
----------------------
Edit: Those guys gotta be kidding...That new Z is a badass ride. Guess the old hater comes out when you cant afford it.

There are drivers, then there are enthusiasts.

 

Just to clarify I wasnt hurt, just thought every one may get a rise.

Lol. Glad you let us know it was the Chinese and not some freakish rendezvous.


I could not agree more.

 

Pretty sad that a site devoted to Corvettes and some members bash other years of Corvettes.

 

Quite ing this crap up why do you care or any one here care for that matter what some one thinks of your vette YOUR CAR SUCKS *** there ya got one from me to

 

I think it will, it could very well be the last Corvette ever produced.
My nephew has a 02 C5 and I think its ugly. He loves it.
My brother has a 87 convrt and he loves it.

 

 

Opinions are like **** holes, everyone has one. I like mine, that's all that matters to me.

 

 

Hey those skinny blings look scary..........

 

If people love to look down at lesser year Corvettes, then we all might as well start at the begining.

1953. Gotta love that 6cyl....
