Review

I love this vehicle. I was a little bit hesitant at first to purchase this vehicle because of all the stories, "I wouldn't want to pay the repair bill!" ect... It has not givin me a problem yet. I've put 96,000 miles on it and all I've ever done was change oil and basic tune-ups. You will love this car!!

Favorite Features

This vehicle is just plain and simple fun to drive. I love the power that it produces and the head-turns. It's a nice feeling knowing that you can beat the majority of the competition.

Suggested Improvements

I really don't have any. Corvettes over the years have evolved on their own.

Review

I fell in love with this vehicle the first time I seen it- It came rolling in at a tent sale in Florida- It was a real eye-catcher. I paid the lady well below book value and now it's mine- LT1---- 300hp---torch red--- vroooooooom!!

Favorite Features

Body Style, I like the mean look- especially with the gills that were added in 95 and bigger brakes

Suggested Improvements

There has to be an easier way to take the targa top off then breaking out the wrench and start turning. It can be a pain; sometimes I want to remove the top but I just dont have the patience.

95 Vette dark red 115,000 mi

Review

Cons:Clear coat on wheels, peeled in 2004 and had to be recoated. Excessive moisture in the air, Vette will not start. Water pump went out. Replaced water pump, and all the wiring. I had to replace 4 distributors over a 12 month period. It still sometimes will not start. Pros: I had all new plugs and wiring done; high quality. The performance was noticable. MPG went from 20 - 22, to 25 - 27 mpg. It has always been fun to drive, and what a pleasure it is on long drives. Sound quality is still good with the Bose Gold. May update later. I am deciding on what tires to replace it with, I will drive it all year long. Other than starting problems, the car is awesome.

Favorite Features

Power, performance and gas mileage.

Suggested Improvements

Water pump and distributor. They are right next to each other, and I think this is the cause of the stalling, from when the water pump went out.

It took 20years, but I finally got mine

Review

I bought this car used from the original owner with 28,000 miles on it. The car runs great (that LT1 is turbine smooth) and is very comfortable for long trips (even with the base suspension). I've put 17,000 miles on it in the 3 years I've owned it. I haven't had any problems. I do get the odd WRX on my tail, but hey, I paid half of what that thing costs. Plus, it's a Vette! For those who complain about getting in/out of the Vette, remember, it's a sports car, not a Miata. With a little investment, this baby could run with Enzo's, F40's and Lambos at a fraction of the cost.

Favorite Features

The ultimate sports car, within the reach of everyday people.

Suggested Improvements

Kind of late now, but I would've had a larger mouth opening up front for better cooling for the radiator.

Chevy for show - Ford for go

Review

Great performance and looks. Poor quality and reliability. Had to replace alternator, timing belt, and battery just days after the warranty expired. While under warranty, had to have oil leak repaired, weather stripping replaced, drivers window scratches when open and closed. Five years later it again needed the same things fixed. Replaced all tires after only 26000 miles (about $370.00 each)! I had to buy a new battery eight years after buying my 1991 Ford... thats the only thing that has failed on it!

Favorite Features

I love the looks and performace.

Suggested Improvements

For such a high dollar car you would expect better quality.

Great daily driver for mid teens

Review

Got the '95 for a daily driver that would be fun to drive. It was a garage queen, of which I think there are many, and only had 18k miles after 8 years. Only issues were the engine well and one small frayed spot on the passenger carpet. Paint, weather stripping, tinted blue roof and rest of carpet and seats were in spotless condition, reflecting mileage and sitting in garage. Got it for mid sixteens and put new fluids in along with a good cleaning of the engine. Runs strong and just plain fun.

Favorite Features

Power with ok mileage of 18 mostly city commute to train.

Suggested Improvements

Ride of the C4 is not up to the C5 level of comfort but for local driving is it fine.

Greatest Sports Car in USA

1995 Chevrolet Corvette 2 Dr STD Coupe

Review

One of the greatest sport cars ever driven. Love the handling and speed. Would not settled for anything else. This is a part-time car for me. I regularly drive it on the weekend to the local gym/metro in Greenbelt, Md. I will only purchase a Porsche 911 Turbo wide body and a '95 Vette for my sports car, nothing else. Although, I used to own an '89 911 Turbo and loved it, but not as much as the Vette b/c of the handling. Hate to sell this car -- will be placing an ad this week-end due to relocation to Thailand.

Favorite Features

Handling, suspension package, love it all!

Suggested Improvements

No need for improvement. Love the current body style.

I've been in my vette now for a couple of months and I'm very happy with it. The car has power to burn, handles like a dream and allows you to not worry about those short passes into oncoming traffic. Love the styling of the C4!
