Hi everyone. I was going to build another streetrod but I've done that before so I decided it was time to get a Corvette. I've always wanted one and now that I'm retired it only seems fitting that I make the jump. I've checked Ebay and Craigslist and it appears the C4 is the model that will be in my price range so I'm going to start saving and try to have one bought by this time next year. In the meantime I'll be lurking here and learning all I can. One question. I've seen a couple advertised with the 4+3 transmission. I had never heard of it so I'm guessing it was an experiment gone bad. Is this an option I should avoid?

Welcome to the Forum!!!!!! 
Best of luck finding the right car for you. Enjoy the Forums. 
There are a couple C4 owners who are here in Intros regularly so they will probably answer your question. In case they don't, you can ask any C4 questions in the C4 General Forum. There are a lot of knowledgeable owner members there who are ready to help. Good luck.

Thanks for the welcome. Now I'll sit back, read, and learn. When I figure I know enough to ask intelligent questions I will join in.
