Re: Best Handling C4? (388 SOLid RoLLeR)
19x9.5 front tires, 19x11 rears, and slammed until the top of the tire cant be seen beneath the fenders. done some twisties on the highway at over 160 mph :D
Getting back to the topic.
My GrandSport with FE1 suspension is probably an average handling C-4 off the showroom floor. My steel blue was equipped with FE1 and FX3 which handled a little better than the GS.
I am sure all of the C-4 handle some what good, but you won't know the difference until you try the coilover setup. A dialed in coilover setup will turn your regular C-4 into a true go-kart, and that's no overstatement.

Three things make the difference in handling in a car. DRIVER, DRIVER, DRIVER.
That said, my car has a lot of improvement to go... ;)

From everything I have read, the 84 hasn't been beat as far as skid pad #'s.
In the 84 sales brochure, it says that a stock z51 pulls .95G'sand a base suspension pulls .90G's. It also goes onto say that 1G was reached by putting 9.5 wheels all the way around on a Z51 carand dialing in an aggressive alignment.
