That's an impressive amount of bolstering.

Is it a 6-speed or the stupid 4+3?

I do believe it is a 6 speed since it's an 89. IIRC 89-96 have the 6 speed LT1, with the 96 GS getting the LT4.

Not bad, though I'd rather spend a few extra thousand for a C5. Personal preference, really.

It's power adjustable too. I sat in one at my chevy dealer a few weeks ago, it's very comfortable.

A few extra thousand is a lot of extra money when you're staring at $10k.

If I could find a C5 for $12k I might consider it, but that's already 20% more than a $10k C4, and I feel like you're better off in a $10k C4 than a $12-15k C5.

I think the C4 if a better looking Corvette anyways, but I'm not picky. I'd take either. I honestly have no idea how much money I'll be able to spend or when, have to buy a house first...

I definitely can agree with that. A few thousand is quite a bit more at those prices and a $12k C5 is likely much worse than a $10k C4. Though at $15k you start seeing pretty nice coupes.

And yeah I feel ya, I need a job before buying a house before buying a corvette :(

I've got the job, I just need the house. Then the money for a Corvette after I buy the house...

It's a percentage game. If we were talking the difference between $60,000 and $65000 no big deal, but $10,000 to $15,000 is a lot.

Who knows, I could have a $15k budget but I doubt it, I honestly expect to take a while to even have the $10k after paying for a downpayment on a house, and I really don't want to take out a loan for this one.

I've been trolling those forums too, and both of those are great for the price (seemingly). I just wish I had the budget for one at the moment, because I would be all over either (preferably the white with red interior).

Actually, non GSs got the LT4 in 96 also. But those are so freakin expensive now.

That TT is hideous, and I'd much rather have a Corvette than an MG

The white one is actually in town. I'd buy it in a heartbeat if I had a second garage slot.

No they're not. LT4 Corvettes sit between $9000 and $12000. Grand Sports are the expensive ones, but those start at $15000 for the black-guts coupe and go all the way up into the $50,000 range for a red-guts convertible.
