1995 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe

For consignment, a 1995 Chevrolet Corvette coupe showing 226,764 miles, but the true miles are unknown. This car was repainted around 10 years ago and has a new targa top and new seat covers.  

Exterior
Let's say you want a little red Corvette, but you don't want a fire engine colored rocket screaming down the road. Well, this Dark Red Metallic, more of a maroon, is for you! Not as flashy as Torch Red but just as fast! Out back, it's almost as if the tail lights were meant to color match the paint and wide mouth aftermarket exhaust tips emerge from under the smooth rear valance. The classic wedge shaped sports car is rounded in the back and the C4's lines have been smoothed in the front where the marker lights hug the corners flush to the bumper cover. 17-inch sawblade wheels are on board and wearing ZR rated tires. In profile, the car sweeps back with a dramatically raked windshield and fender vents that look like they were formed by the wind, while sport side mirrors copy the wedge shape and send a pointed front to the wind. Imperfections include minor scratches, tarnish on the wheels, a scuff on the nose, and a scratch in the front air dam.  

Interior
Black and gray plastic cover the handsome and efficient door panels with black switches, armrests, and door pulls blending with the central panel, showing a tinge of usage. Gray leather bucket seats provide cocoon like chairs for occupants and present in very nice shape. An airbag centered steering wheel fronts a race inspired instrument cluster that puts gauges fairly close together in arching curves that surround a orange back lit digital screen. The center stack houses an idiot light panel, the push button A/C controls, and an AM/FM/Cassette radio with CD. The center console is an uncrowded place with the shifter, seat switches storage bin, and ever important statistics plate reminding you of available horsepower. Low pile gray carpet graces the floor, some of it newer according to our consignor, and finds its way to the back storage area where it presents cleanly. Above us, a translucent targa top allows some filtered light to enter the cabin.

Drivetrain
Lifting the hood forward gives you full access to the 5.7 liter LT1 engine with 300 horsepower and tied to a ZF 6-speed manual transmission sending power to 3.45 gears in back with limited slip. 

Undercarriage
Some typical age corrosion, surface rust, and minimal residual fluids are found underneath. Power disc brakes are on all four wheels while dual exhaust meets at a resonator then continues in tandem to split wide at the back entering stock style mufflers before two rectangular exhaust tips.Suspension is a complex race inspired system of forged aluminum control arms, knuckles, control links along with transverse monoleaf springs and a tubular U-joint aluminum driveshaft.

Drive-Ability
If the miles are anywhere close to accurate, the car doesn't show it. And the engine starts up without hesitation, delivering good power and superb handling and this well maintained car belies its age. We note the steering column tilt mechanism is a bit sloppy and the reverse lights are not working, but all other functions operate as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.

We've said it before, C4's represent the gateway avenue into the performance and specialty car world. Objectively, they will look good in another 30 years from now and still carry the legendary marker of being America's sports car, the Corvette!
