Not many ZR-1s (pictured) are going for under $10k these days... Oh, and LS1 in 92 "V4s"??
Other mistakes not withstanding, I agree the C4 is a super value - especially for a hobby car!.

"One issue is that the majority of the C4 class of `Vettes are now considered classic cars, so the price is quickly increasing. When you could once slide into these for a quick $3K, you are now looking at least $7K for mid-1980s models, but you can sneak into the 300-horsepower mid-1990s models for less than $10K."
When was that? I can't ever remember other than project or very worn C4s being less than 3K. The 7K number seems to be a more towards reality.
The C4 is a lot Corvette for a reasonable buy in.
