Default 1989 A4 Coupe, Blue, 40k miles, $8800 Wisconsin

I have decided to sell my 1989 L98 A4 Corvette Coupe. I have had it 2 years, but I think I am moving on to a newer one. It has 40k miles on it. Only 2 things that are issues, the amps in the front speakers are bad and the ABS light is on. I am asking 8800 obo as that is the average market value. I am located in Southern Wisconsin and the car is currently in storage but I hope to get it out the weekend of 4-6-2019. My cell is 608 eight Nine Seven 6254. Text is best, as any numbers I don't know I usually just let go to voicemail.

Give it time....great color
Wish I was in the market would make a great cruiser.

Youll need a C4 enthusiast.....the typical CL buyer wont pay 8k but someone who knows these cars may. Most are hammered to death.

Thanks cuisinart, Might as well add a couple more pics. Window sweeps are not the greatest but all other seals are good.

You should be in the right price range, maybe a little high but you have some good options. Nice to see the G92 axle and the LTPWS, those and the Targa bar should help with the sale. Spring is here and buyers will be coming out of hibernation.

LTPWS = low tire pressure warning system. Nice to have but $250-400 each if they get damaged by an enthusiast tire changer. The bead needs to be broken only at 90 degrees from the valve stem otherwise the plastic housing is often damaged. They are also wheel placement specific so not an easy part to replace. It took me a month and $325 to replace one the tire store damaged on mine but they paid me for it.
If you have never seen one it is quite a contraption. But it does work well.

The targa truss bar is made by Tom Gaspar out of Tommy’s Speed Shop. He makes them for 89 to 96 cars I believe. He is on the forum but his number is 216-316-9812. He is a busy guy so leave a number and he will get back to you. They were $475 shipped and they make a world of difference in how the car handles.

R254 I am surprised you have not had any inquiries. Nice car with great options. If I didn’t already have 2 C-4 Corvettes this would be a good deal. Are you advertising in CL, Autotrader, and other places locally? C-4’s just take time to sell. UNDER-APPRECIATED cars!

I have only advertised it in this forum as of right now. Not a big deal, but I figure I would give everyone in here first chance. It's a great car, but I am looking for an LT4

Sounds great. I would have bought an LT4 this weekend, but unfortunately someone beat me too it.

Sorry, that is one of the few items that I have bought that was worth every penny and I don't plan on selling. It works great and if you can get one I highly recommend it.

Get a 3 min clip with it running, no talking or music on youtube.CL..maybe. The forum by itself is hit and miss.
Someone may step up most the time youll get cheapskates.
