My new (but older) car
I am selling the tl, I put a deposit on my new car, it is a 1996 corvette collectors edition with 45k miles and has the lt-4. It has 330hp and 340 lbs of tq, 6 spd, and only 1,540 were made with that engine 
. I am picking it up either tommorow or sunday.
Here is a pic:

Thanks for the compliments. Those wheels are the "collectors edition" wheels, and I believe '95 was the last year for the zr-1. The previous owner put on some flowmaster 40 series exhaust, which I think has too much drone (and I am a fan of loud exhaust). At 3k rpm it sounds like it is at 6k.

Hey $500 for a car that only has 62k miles (thats what it had when I bought it), and runs like a charm, no oil leaking or burning its an excellent deal for a beater. Ill post pics of both cars this weekend (when I pick up the vette).

^LMAO, it would take me all year to do that!! I was thinking about bringing it to dent wizzard as a joke and see what they say.
I took some quick pics, the side of the car is also dented
. I cant tell you guys how good it fells not worrying about a car, it is actually quite fun seeing where and which smallest parking spot you can fit in 
.
I also put remote start in my beater, its a nice car, that is except for the outside.

The c4 is from 84-96 but the body style I have is from 91-96, the lt-4 was an option from 93-96.
I will be trailering it home this coming saturday, cleaning it sunday and will take some more pics.
Thanks for the compliments.

Im not sure if all the vettes has it, I believe it started in either 93 or 94 and lasted until 96. Then it came back for the 06 (not sure about 05).
