So I have a 1991 c4 (not that long) to get the corvette feel but now I’m realizing how loooow it is to constantly get in and out. The wife dislikes the (was she calls) the youth seat. We recently test drove a 06 and up and enjoy the entry better. C6, C7. I will definitely get another corvette but debating on should I sell my c4 or let it seat in my garage and look good, I’m just thinking out loud

I have had a C6 and now a c4. Yes C6 is easier to get in and out and more comfortable but I enjoy the c4 more. Feels like a go cart on rails.

Good luck with your decision.

The C4 to me feels like what a raw sports car should feel like. It is harder than other versions to get in and out of, the ride is rough, handles like it is on rails and in my opinion it still is one of the best sports cars on the road

I had a 2009 with the LS3/6M which I bought new. The C6 will do everything the C4 does, but better. Sometimes much better.

The C4 demands much more dedication and love if one is to enjoy it. Something your wife probably doesn't have for the car.
Sell the C4 and buy a C6 or 7. Don't let your car die a lonely death in your garage.
