Default Back into another C4
After being away for a few years, I just purchased this 1996. Arctic White with Red Sport interior. Has most options including the Z51 package. Only has 59,000 miles from the second owner who had it since 2000. Time to detail and handle all maintenance that is needed.

Congrats! Sounds like you found yourself a gem. Is 96 the year that to get z51 it had to be a stick? Making this also an Lt4?

White on red is so classic for corvette.

I believe to get the six speed manual transmission one had to order the LT4 motor. The Z51 option could be ordered on either an automatic or manual transmission. The automatic choice required the axle performance option too.
