Default 95 Convertible

Finally got my chance and wife agreed. Have had for a few months, I look forward to the warm summer months with top down... as the winter is still a blast. Just a stock 95 with 6-speed and just getting ready to turn 40k miles. See you on the road.

Looks really nice. I like the tan roof. and the 6 speed. Something about the 95s that people don't drive them much. I just bought a 95 black convertible with a black top and only 18k miles on it. They are a lot more fun with the top down.

Hope you enjoy it, bought a 95 last year and love it.
Only had to replace starter and 2 tires so far with 100k
and a 2 owner car. I think they are more up-dated than
older c4's and have less trouble. Good luck with yours.

That is very interesting on the low miles 95s, our win !! 18k is crazy low. this one still has it's bumps and bruises. I need to take a look at the u-joints, seems to be some issue just hope it is not tranny related. I really like the tan top on the black, defines the overall fastback look of the convertibles compared to the coupes, imho.

Let's see some pics !!

Had my 94 for almost 2 yrs now. Just turned 28000 miles. Mine looks similar, tan top and interior. Different world when driving with the top down because of all around visibility!

HEY, NICE RIDE !!
I am a huge fan of the tan top / black. I wasn't specifically looking for C4, but everything just right. Lower miles, 6-manual and convertible. You are absolutely correct, one of the bigger blind spots on any vehicle i have driven but the top down is an immediate fix. Have you done anything in the way of performance mods ? Great to see others out there, not many C4's in my area although plenty of new plastic.

No mods except for K&N air filter. Wheels were chrome plated by org owner in 94 which look good on dark paint. Thought it best to leave it stock with the low miles. One thing I notice is that I drive this car very carefully watching out for the other drivers as I realize this fiberglass probably cant be fixed! Wife and I live on the beach so we have plenty of (plastic), silcone actually on the the white sands!
