Why a C4 Corvette Is THE Classic Sports Car To Invest in TODAY

[@viii3three]

"it doesn't have an airbag, it has a bag of air"... lol... love it and love my C4.

I'm 16 and I want the C4 to be probably the car I buy after I've been driving for a while. I feel like it would be something some to just keep

[@paulmoss7940]

I lusted for a LT4 in 1996, but had a mortgage and a baby son. He graduated college in 2017 and I retired. Found a nice lo mile example in Florida .Flew down to Ft. Myers and bought it. Drove 850 miles home to NC. She 's in the garage now. 26mpg sticks like glue and fairly quick for the year. A lot of bang for the buck and I can work on it myself.

Thats awesome, mines from Florida too. I guess thats definitely something to note about the later C4s is how much better they are on mpg. I average about 17 lol

[@richardcoram1562]

@@reecelogan8266 Reece, my 86 with just 1k short of 200,000 miles consistently gets 25 to 27 on road trips. Around town and local runs it usually gets 17 to19 - and this is having fun with it. I've never been shy about " jumping on it" or running it all the way out in drive(3rd) from 0 to 135. That 4th gear will get you into the Buck-50 Club. Just remember, KNOW YOUR ROAD,, that includes traffic, time of day, or night, police patrols, and danger from large animals, such as deer elk antelope or farm animals. There's a time and a place for everything, and you will want to drive your car the way it was designed to be driven. Unfortunately we Don't have a European style Autobahns in the United States.

[@1984C4Corvette_DIY_Garage]

The C4 is an undervalued gem. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a great sports car. EDIT TO ADD: The CFI is a very reliable fuel delivery system. Knocks on the 84 are unwarranted, and unfounded, usually made by people who have little or no experience repairing or maintaining cars. Every generation, of every car is supposed to make improvements year by year, the C4 is no different.

@@siler7 Confusing a design flaw, with the progress engineers make in automotive manufacturing, with every car produced, in every generation shows you may lack a basic understanding in automobile manufacturing. The Pinto gas tank blowing up, that was a design flaw. Improving engine performance, fuel delivery, horse power etc, that is called engineered progress, and should be expected. The C4 is the best bargain sports car on the market. It's given untold thousands of vette fans a chance to get in to the market, and enjoy these great cars.

[@jimmybags1494]

Just bought an 80k mile 84 z51. CFI has been ported within an inch of its life, has about 10 degrees of timing. It's absolutely killer. Not fast....yet, but officially a good time. Really stoked on it. Can't wait to see how it handles with modern tires on 18 inch wheels and coilovers. It's good now but the zf1 springs are too stiff and the 16 inch wheels give it too much sidewall. Also gets 24+ mpg on the highway, shes a peach!

I had 2 of them. One black ( my baby I rebuilt myself with a friend ) and my white one ( got stolen ) I love them both, but OH MY BLACK ONE! Nothing like it! I couldn't SLEEP till I got my hands on one. I had a Camaro '72 before then, after driving C4, I couldn't deal with anything else. Then the DASH CLUSTER went down... and that was a situation apparently in the 90's NOBODY could fix, so after 3k in repairs... that was the end of my baby. The suspension on these things was a dream come true. Doing a buck 25 with one hand was no problem.... Sometimes I wonder if I should get another one. IF I knew where my car guy was to do another rebuild..... I'd do it again

[@Toymonkeyjr]

c4 is the best car to buy right now, sit on them 5-10 years you'll double your money if you keep up the maintenance. Not getting into investing in cars, because that's a pretty bad idea. But it's a great car to own while appreciating. Nothing feels better then having fun and driving a car that you're earning money on.

[@richardcoram1562]

Well, I just woke. Flipped on my iPad - hit the KZbin channel and saw a beautiful C4 just begging to be rode hard. Beautiful and largely unappreciatrd machines. I personally, really never had a desire to own a Corvette through most of my earlier years, but I always had a big motored hot rod. 2001 I got a chance to buy a 1986 with 77,354 miles. It "was" a two tone Silver Beige over metallic brown. Today I'm still driving it, and have a bottle of champagne in a box I'm carrying to celebrate 200,000 miles. This engines the original, never cracked open, same as the TH700 slush box. Just regular service and FULL fluids gaskets seals 0 rings flush and fills about every 4 years.My baby is better today than when I first got it 21 years ago. I'm subscribed. Looks like YOU'RE a newbie, so I'm along with you for the ride. BEST OF LUCK TO YOU.

It is a good time to buy one of these, I'm actually looking into it right now and there are some really nice, low mileage examples out there. You can pick up a decent condition one that's been driven for a very fair price and it could make a nice car that you can restore a bit.

[@stevej4922]

When I looked at getting another Corvette 5 years ago, I zeroed in on the C4 because I like the body style. It didn't take long to discover the problems with the early C4 years: Low HP, quality issues, fuel injection problems, ignition system problems, and that awful 2+2 transmission/overdrive kluge. I got an '89. All original, dark red color, 68k miles. First year they got the ignition system and the fuel injection perfected. And that awesome 6-speed manual ZF transmission. Got it for $7500. I've had lots of fun with it and there is no other way you are going to get that much car for $7500. An 8-yr old used Honda econobox goes for more than that here. Add Hagerty insurance and for what it costs to maintain this vehicle, it is a bargain. Won't win any races but I don't care; it has plenty of power to be fun and sounds healthy plus 25 mpg in overdrive at 70 MPH on the highway. Take it out whenever I feel like driving a toy with little impact to the wallet. And this one will never go down in value, which fits my first rule of classic/collectible car buying or restoration: NEVER get in upside down. The later C4s, imo, are the best overall combination of looks, performance, styling, and value you can get in a sports/performance veh.

[@klonidier]

Good video mate! For anyone considering doing this, I would stay away from ‘84s unless you’re a pretty good mechanic. ‘86 was the first model with anti-lock brakes. ‘90 has allot of parts that are ‘90 only (can be a headache to find parts). Keep Corvetting and save the wave!

[@reecelogan8266]

Nice I remember seeing one on the road once, I heard there were only about 1000 of them made?

[@sijonda]

Out of my price range, but I've wanted one for over a decade.

[@Audfile]

Thanks for running up the prices. Appreciate it.

[@rafaelrivera4769]

Good video! I own an ‘85 and I absolutely love it!

[@reecelogan8266]

Thanks!

[@LAFerrariZack]

Got the 93 torch red in love.

[@searaydrivingguy]

1992 to 1996 is what you want, i had 7 of them i love them a bit outdated but well worth the money.

[@saintpoli6800]

C3 is still my absolute favorite for the gothic vibe when it’s in black, but, this shit is fresh

[@reecelogan8266]

I'm not the biggest fan of C3s but my favorite ones I'd say are the ones from 80-82 cause they have more of that boxy look like the c4.

[@craigogren6387]

I have had an 89 convertible for about 15 years. It is a very early 89, and they discontinued the gray color for mine and switched to a different gray. As near as I can determine, there are only 62 convertibles in my color, and I think about 200 coupes. So, someday, it might have some value. Hope so. Thanks for the great video

[@sb-di3of]

bro youre a walking stereotype. my corvette was one of 35 made on a taco tuesday by a man with no thumbs, in a red thats chemically superior to all other red paint formulas from different years. making my corvette more special than your corvette

[@craigogren6387]

@@sb-di3of Alrighty then.... thanks for your kind words

[@debbiebrantley61]

I had a red 1995 c4 and man was it awesome.

[@MarkVidal]

i love my 93 more and more each day

[@redtesta]

The anniversary 88 is going to go up over time for sure. Also, color combos that are rare as well.

[@reecelogan8266]

I go crazy for that white leather

[@redtesta]

@@reecelogan8266 Yes, that white really pops. In the past , those anniversaries not only held their price but were selling for close or more than sticker at one point. Been into C4's most my life and always have one or two in my collection. I kept the my original first vette (2nd owner) . Early vettes don't take a lot to run a solid low low 13. Problem is , the early C4's they aren't very kind to them, to a point when it comes to dropping in an LS or LT (L98 was limited with its long runners though they made after market ones) Just came across your channel. Going to go through your other videos. I agree with what you said about the C4s in the video.

[@user-pn3im5sm7k]

Arctic white exterior and red interior convertible is my favorite C4

[@jetsteeltherealdeal7827]

I love my 87

[@davidsafely732]

Original owner of an '84 Z51 optioned Coupe with a Doug Nash 4+3 transmission. This is the rarest of the C4's, possibly outside of the ZR1's. Less than 7k were made in '84. The suspension set factory records not just in America, but in Europe as well. It manage .9g on street tires. No other car made, yes... including Porsche, Ferrari and Lamborghini could not match that number. The drawback many thought was the lower horsepower L83 Crossfire engine. Simple porting of the intake and some minor mods pushed the output to around 240 hp. It has more torque than the L98 and LT1. It is more reliable than the L98 and the LT1 as well. Any engine with the OptiSpark always developed issues. With the advent of programmable computers you can easily build engines that put out over 300 hp and similar torque. I would not own a later model C4. The quality is not near as good, the only exception is the ZR1. Thanks for the video I love my '84 and I'm restoring and modifying it, by "GM" design, which were not implemented due to EPA BS. The potential of the '84 and it's general perceived value is the best one to purchase and fix up. It's also easier to maintain.

[@jonathanmorrisey5771]

The c4 is actually the last of the driver's Corvette. The ONLY nannies/driver aids it got was ABS starting in '86 and the primitive traction control [ASR Acceleration Slip Regulation] starting in '92 with the LT-1. No stability control or other aids.

[@thatguy3468]

No mentioning of the ultra rarest, and not just C4’s but any modern day sports car. The Callaway Twin Turbos. Sanctioned by GM with the RPO code B2K. Produced from 87-91. These are basically modern day Yenkos. Imagine driving a car with over 500 ft. Lbs. torque in 1988? Last year of production was 91 with over 500 ft. Lbs of torque and over 400 Hp. My 91 sold for just over $121k in 91. Try applying todays inflation numbers to it. The super rarest were the six original Aerobody cars. A body design that helped the Callaway Sledgehammer break 254 mph, in 1989, when nothing else came remotely close. These are super gems if you can find one. I own two. One of them is the ultra super rare one of six 91 Aerobody convertible. That feeling of being sucked into the seat due to the monster torque, puts a smile on your face that’s hard to remove.

[@armindapereira4433]

I think is one of the most beautiful!

[@ScreamingEagleFTW]

great vid. thanks for posting.

[@reecelogan8266]

Thanks!!

[@klimtklavier]

I own and drive an 88 C-4 with Tuned Port Injection... I've owend it since 2006 and have about 68K on it. It's not an investment , it's my daily driver from Spring to as late in Fall as possible. My car has silver leather seats, which are gawdawful, but I have a Bose Delco cassette deck and excellent speakers. Forget anyone wanting to invest it... just get one and drive the shit out of it ! It's a fun drive, and it's very low so never buy one with a wobbly steering wheel, because some people use the steering wheel to get in and out of the car, which is ultra moronic. My car is repainted Graphite, and I switched out the plastic cogwheel for a brass one, which keeps my lights rotating. I am lucky I have a mechanic who owns a 94 Vette and a 68 C 10 pickup that has the same engine as me...

[@VroodenTheGreat]

I bought a '94 in 2007 for $11k, 62k miles. I have sat on it for 17 years, they went down to $3,000. They are going for 13 - 15 grand now. It has 82k miles.

[@davidwilson410]

Will probably end up buying one of these. I love Coke Bottle Vettes more.

[@marccusumano1138]

Man, C4s are so rad

[@krelllab6366]

I had a new 1987 Corvette that I enjoyed. I had very little trouble with it in the 17 years I owned it. I went to purchase a new Corvette but discovered they now have Forced Lighting. You do NOT control the lights in the car. The 20 year old programmer at GM does. I purchased a Mustang GT convertible instead, not as fast, but I can turn the lights off. One more thing, GET A HAIRCUT!

[@reecelogan8266]

Lmao cool but no! It was windy that day do my hair looked messy but its always gotta be long I play guitar duh

[@dustinmccain1215]

C4s are a great investment. The L98s and LT1s were great engines. Just stay away from the slug 84 cease fire injection models.

[@chavez2102]

Great video, thanks for sharing !

[@reecelogan8266]

Of course thank you!!
