Default Cheap C4

Saw this at one of the sketchy used car places near my house. Looks more like a Firebird than a C4.

I always felt that the body kits lessen the looked of the C4.

Keep looking - get yourself a non molested Vette and do the upgrades that you want to do...that way its truly yours. There are so many C4's out there for sale...you wont have a problem finding one if you walk away from this one.

Good luck with your search!

Jeez, 4K off of the original price?!?? That's a hell of a sale, eh? If you like the way it looks, go check it out. Seems reasonable if the interior is in good condition, wonder what mods they did under the hood if they spent that much time on the body?

I didn't check it out. Don't really like the body style. This dealer is known for having flashy cars that are junk or the posted price suddenly changes when the potential buyer arrives. I have a 91 C4 in my garage right now. Not enough room for two of them.

Sometimes you see nice examples right here on the forum that are realisically priced.

Too many bser s flipppers guy wanting you to pay for their first pony slapping experience in one even if it involved uncle bonzo you get the idea

Buy a sound car not a dream those are free.

Get em while they are cheap. They want your money you call the shots f em theres always more. Demand for a discount if they start the " very rare" mental illness bs just for dealing with them.

I love the steel blues of 90 and 91...it a shame what's happened to that one since they are so rare.
