Almost twin to my red 91 six speed. Really like Red/Red mine is Red/Gray. Also 91 red is just called "Bright Red" not Torch Red, but I'm not sure if it is the same color.
Good Luck!

Beautiful car, congrats. I'm sure you're going to have a fight on your hands down the road keeping it away from your boy

I've seen it with my granddaughter and my 86. One day after school she was dropped off at the house. When the wife went to take her home, little one got ready and was supposed to head out to the van with the wife right behind her. Got to the van, no granddaughter. After looking all over the house, backyard, etc. the wife finally heard something and found the little one sitting in my Vette 'driving it' and making motor noises. No bad for a 6 year old

Enjoy your time together, it's priceless.

Beautiful! Congratulations and thanks for posting the photos.

I love my Torch Red '96, but I think you found the sweet spot in the C4 lineup. Later body style, no roof mounted third brake light, and best of all NO OPTI-SPARK!

It looks well cared for and unmolested.

Got a manual here too. You will love the manual. Just stretched her legs out yesterday on a short curvy mountain road yesterday and it was therapeutic w/ the 6 speed.

Mine is original too. So original a couple of the Bose speakers don't work

I also call BS on your claim of no 25 year old car being original. I have seen several right down to the tires and windshield wipers.

Go "bristle" somewhere else and not try and **** all over someone else's joy.

The car looks amazing! Being from K-town myself I can think of some nice mountain roads that you and your son will love to drive it on. Pay no attention to the kill-joy above.
Agreed. I just sold my 1987 Porsche 944 with 43k miles on it. It was all original down to the tires. It was quite literally like a time capsule.

And don't forget Mountain Run 5 coming up in May. It usually finishes at the C4 gathering at NCM with track time and very few C4 souvenirs.
