[QUOTE=amlarson2001;1585262806] You will never be able to go back to C4.[QUOTE]

Well, not really true from reading some of the responses.

I bought a '90, then got an '02 Z06 to go along with it. Loved the C4 but just sold it two weeks ago to buy a 4WD truck. Soon I will get back into a C4.....looking for an LT4 or ZR1 as my next Vette. Of course, I will keep the Z.

I've had 2 85's, an 87, 90, 94, and 95 and although I did love them I love my 01 6-speed vert a lot more. The only things I can think of that I miss is the slightly better low end throttle response and the seats of the 94+.

Congrats on your purchase and nice looking ride as well. I too have made the jump from C4 to the C5. I really liked my 84 and would buy another C4 in a minute, If I had the room to store it. I really like my 98 though and puts a smile on my face every time I drive it especially going thru the gears....
