LT5 in base C4?

What is this? It doesnt look like ZR1... Was there LT5s on base C4 or is there only LT5 badge on that car?

One of a kind? 
The HP plaque is where its AT! If you haven't "sealed the deal" by the time your date slips into the passenger's seat...when she reads the compression ratio...she's all yours, man!

Hmmmm! Excellent condition, but needs paint? That doesn't exactly say excellent to me. I think somebody bought the highest HP badge they could find and stuck it on to impress buyers that are not so much in the know. No high mount stop light on the roof and didn't see a vin number listed there either.
Me thinks someone is making Caca-de-Toro!

Not saying someone along the line didn't spend $30,000 putting an LT-5 in that car, but without photographic proof, I'd say all they spent was $15 for a stick-on badge.
I agree. If the car's owner(s) didn't care enough about it to keep the paint waxed and cared-for, they probably didn't care enough about it to keep the fluids and wear items fresh with premium components. That's been my experience with cars over the years, anyway.
