Sometimes an unusual color really resonates with the styling of a car and I was quite taken with this C4 that I saw advertised on Craigslist for sale in the Colorado Springs area. The owner is asking $16,360.00 for what looks like a pretty pampered Corvette that is completely...

Although some Corvette traditionalists are initially put off by the styling of this car, after you look at it for a while, the design becomes more appealing. Which shouldn’t be surprising, as it’s hard to imagine that the guy credited with the timeless design of the C2 would be...

This red 1990 ZR-1 with 54,000 miles sold at auction for $16,250 in January of 2020. The original auction listing is located at https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1990-chevrolet-corvette-zr-1-4/.

“All ya gotta do is get rid of the sawblades,” he said. “WHAT?” I sputtered. “I love those wheels!” He was checking out my Polo Green ’93 (shown above), which is completely original, right down to the exhaust system. The “sawblades” that came on the car are in excellent...

What a difference a year and a half makes in the price of cars. In the case of collectible cars, it’s sometimes difficult to determine whether the asking/selling prices result from the general over-heated market or from a genuine upward trend in the perceived value of a particular model....

From the “How Low Can You Go” department, this sale completed about a year and a half ago, and I thought it might be interesting to contrast the previous selling environment to the current one. Everybody knows that fourth-generation Corvettes are some of the biggest sports car bargains and...
