Subject: Re: Buying a C4 by Matatk on 2018/1/11 14:56:56 Hi Gary, Welcome to the site! Unfortunately this is a really open ended question with no simple answer. There are too many factors involved to say just pick one or the other. First off, let me say there are a ton of C4s out there. Don't settle and don't think you have to buy the first one you drive! It's a buyer's market. In general, I would say buy the newest and lowest mileage car in the best condition. But since that doesn't really apply here you'll have to compare them. Do you prefer one body style over the other (ie round vs square tail lights)? Do you prefer the old style dash (atari) or the new style? You might not notice much difference in the low end/torque feel of the motors, but the later LT1 engine in the 93 has a higher rpm and power band with more HP. All C4s require work and maintenance. Are you able/capable of doing it yourself? Do the cars have documentation and maintenance records? Which is in better condition. As a new buyer, it's worth having the car checked out by a professional if you are serious about it. I know Andy always recommends a place out there called Mcjacks Corvettes. Not sure if that's local or not. If you look here it has some decent information on model year differences: http://www.corvetteonline.com/feature ... -onlines-c4-buyers-guide/ Good luck and keep us posted. Matthew |
