Default Best Valued C4?

Yeah Yeah I know i JUST sold my 84 but i am still sniffing around the used car lots, ebay, and the 4Sale sections here. So what is the best deal right now for a c4? My perfect situation would be a black/red/blue '91 6speed (convertable ooptional). My time frame is to be a corvette driver by christmas 2004 or Spring 2005. So lets say i will have about $10,000 saved by then. What kind of C4 am i looking at?

Check out http://www.corvettetrader.com triple black 92 coupe for $9,000. IMHO once the C6 comes out you should be able to find lots of LT1s around 10K :yesnod: Just don't ever let us hear that you bought a Mustang or a riced-out Honda! :smash:

Any pre-LT-1 Corvette will be worth about the same as long as it's in good condition.

I always liked the 35th anniversary 4+3, or maybe the Pace Car......

They hold their value well..... :thumbs:

Lowest mileage, cleanest C4 you can find. Seems to be lots avail so should even be able to find the color of your choice. Take your time and you'll find a screaming deal. :yesnod:

I would go LT1...

The LT1 is just so much more refined and the car is so much better put together.
