C3 guy needs help with a C4
Hey C4 guys, I've got a nice C3 that I love, but want to have a C4 as well. I have found this 93 and could use your opinion on value. It has 93K miles, new tires, paint and interior are immaculate, everything works except the factory radio has been replaced so I'll need to deal with that. Looks like I can get the car for $6,500, what do you all think? Been looking a long time, mostly finding over priced project cars, first nice one I've seen.
Thanks for the help!

That seems to be a good deal. I got my 94 a couple of years ago, with 97,000 on it and I couldn't be happier.

Big difference "fer sher"
We're a 2-vette family; my wife owns a 69 vert, and mine first C4 was a 95 coupe/M6. You'll find the C4 to be comparatively refined, and the handling to be a big leap forward! But, the C3 has it's own charm. I tell my wife that her car is "rude, crude, and socially unacceptable...and I LOVE IT!" I guess I'm trying to say that you will be thrilled with the C4/LT1.
Now, going to a whole new level of C4, there is the ZR-1... I test drove one and never looked back!

I went through the same last year when I bought my C4.
The 1st change I made was getting rid of the factory radio and boise speakers. Why would you want to reverse? A factory replacement radio will cost more than a much better aftermarket.
