1984 - 1996 Chevrolet Corvette

The fourth-generation Corvette was created with a clean sheet of paper, and it looked the part, with a completely new design inside and out. Cross-Fire injection was first offered, but 1985 and later cars were fitted with the superior L98 350 V8 with Tuned-Port Injection, and convertibles returned in 1986 after an 11-year absence.

The space-age LED instrument panel can be problematic and expensive to repair, and working on these modern, computer-controlled cars is hardly for shade tree mechanics, although most components are still available. Convertibles and the ZR-1 models are the most desirable; while the ‘88 Corvette Challenge models and the ‘96 Grand Sport are most collectible.
