What mod
What mod have you done to your C4, that makes people think maybe youve lost your mind ? Big wing ? wild paint ? wheels ? Big block ? Maybe carb conversion ?
I converted mine to run on E85.

The color change paint job. All the hours in the garage
sanding and sanding. I went with bright red because i was
apprehensive to spray a metallic color as my first paint job.
They really don't think it is so insane anymore, it looks
pretty good. It looked awful before, peeling clear etc.

The thing with me is, my dad is a car dealer, so I have the amazing privilege of running a dealer plate and the added benefit of insurance on whichever of my cars the dealer plate is on. I know I'm spoiled, but that's one of the few privileges I have. However, all this gets taken away from me as soon as I get a ticket, so I have some good incentive to watch my driving!

I will vouch that a lot of us young people have appreciation for Corvettes.
Several of my friends wish they could own one after experiencing mine.
And with the older C4's, they're not too far out of reach price wise.
Its just the dang insurance that's a killer!

This is good to hear. It kills me every time I see one being parted out.

Yeah we're some pretty lucky kids.
Glad to hear you young guys have some appreciation for your Vettes. I have been worried that, once we "geezers" die off, they would all become planters, or something.
You wouldn't believe how well I take care of mine...
