    Default C4 Vette...

    I'm probably going to sell the neon and was thinking about picking up a C4. Any input? Some of them can be found for pretty cheap.

    A C4 is damn near invisible to radar! Even the radiator is slanted to reflect radar waves away from the source.

    There's a lot of good deals on C5's and C6's too. Check out the Corvette Forum, you can find some sweet deals there if you are patient.

    Just something I was sort-of thinking about...

    I guess I'm in the minority because I love the flip up HLs and the eighties digital dash

    I remember back when TPI was the shiznit

    I love the looks of my C5 more than my C6, but the performance and interior are so much better on the C6!!!

    Well, a c5/c6 would be out of my budget...

    Do you believe the stuff about the C4 being that stealthy against radar? If I get one it would be fun to test!

    Whoever you sell the neon too, don't forget to tell them about the jammers. Otherwise, they may JTG a GSP trooper by accident...

    The C4 corvette may be the stealthiest car ever built. It was made of fiberglass, was narrower and lower than the C5/C6 and if you can pull the fog lamps off of it, it has practically no reflectable surfaces. Obviously get black if you can, but dark blue or green is good too. Personally, I still love the looks of the C4. I think it was one of the prettiest vettes from the rear quarter. Be advised, they rattle like a shopping cart.

    It's ok, only "drug runners" drive SRT4s and they wouldn't stop until the tires are popped anyways
