New from KCMO
I'm new to the Corvette scene. A few days ago, I purchased a polo green 1992 C4. I bought it to replace my 1996 Mustang GT convertible, because I wanted more power. Let me just say... WOW!!! I knew it would be good, but not that good! I found it in St. Louis on craigslist for $8300. It has 100,500 miles. It had plenty of service records, brand new ZR1 wheels and tires, new slotted and cross drilled rotors, MSD ignition, magnaflow exhaust, new 6 speed trans, and a few other things. The only things wrong with is the cruise control doesn't work and neither does the power antenna. Other than that, it's in pristine condition. The body has a few rock chips on the hood, but no scratches anywhere. The interior has 100,000 miles worth of wear, but nothing is broken and the leather has no rips. The fiberglass is flawless.
Kansas City had little to offer unless I was looking for an automatic, which I refuse to have in a sports car. Then when I found this one in St. Louis, I knew for the price that if it drove as good as it looked on paper, it had to be mine. Well, it did that and more. I couldn't believe the gas mileage, either. It only burned a bit over a 1/4 tank on the 250 mile trip back to Kansas City.
I've owned several "sports" cars in my life. Two Miatas, Subaru Impreza WRX, an RX7, and the Mustang GT. This trumps all of them. I can't wait to take it to the local autocross race here in a month, although I'm not looking forward to being classed with the Honda S2000. B Stock is very competitive.
I'd post a picture but it won't let me add any attachments.
I can't wait to become an active member in the Corvette community.
