1991 (b2k)
I have a chance to get a Charcoal Metallic 1991 B2K. I had a 96 LT4 before my current C-5 so i'm not new to the C-4 but would like some input as what to look for & what questions to ask. 
I'm going to see and drive it on tuesday so I will take lots of pictures and post them 
P.S. B2K = Callaway TT

What are some of the other details about the B2K? 1991's are unique in some regards, compared to other years -
What have you found out so far about the car?
Vaccum lines and oil and coolant hoses MUST be inspected - they are now 14 years old and the heat from the turbos takes its toll - Check to ensure all clamps are tight and the intercoolers up top are sitting snug
The car should reach 54-55hg's on the boost guage and hold
Additional resources can be found at CallawayOwnersGroup.com
Hope this helps

here is my take on a Callaway... as long as it runs ok. And is original, unabused, looks good and DOCUMENTED. GET IT.
Even if you have issues, which you will, they won't kill you due to the value of these cars. They are about the only C4 going UP right now.

Few more details might be better for bring out the comments.
I myself would be all over a B2k car if I found a deal.

Thank you Sir, for the compliment
FWIW, I can't recall a time of ever getting tired talking cars - esp. Callaway Corvettes
Thanks - Chris

THx for your time and posts *89x2* I dont know too much about the car other than price and location.I DO know what you mean - While I doubt someone would ever blatently take a car out from under you - a lurker might take advantage of what you know
I am curious though - is it an Aerobody car??
Good luck - and again, feel free to take advantage of the knowledge @ the Callaway Forum - You will find lots of other owners there with insight

This is what's so great about this forum. I have a 91 Coupe, they're talking about a 91 Vette, a Callaway, and I don't know a thing about what it is they're talking about. The amount of information that I'm accumulating is priceless. Can't say enough about this forum.

I have the $$$ all set up at the bank and ready to go! I'm just moving slow because its allot of money for a 14 year old car, yes I know B2K's are not going down in value but i'm just very carefull about how I spend my hard earned money.
