Introduced in 1984 after a one-year hiatus, the C4 Corvette modernized Chevrolet’s flagship model, moving it beyond the emission-choked era. The 1984 C4 retained the 350ci L83 V8 engine, but 1985 saw the debut of the 230bhp fuel-injected L98 V8. In 1986, a convertible model joined the C4 lineup, and the Corvette served as the Indianapolis 500 Pace Car for the second time.
Entering the digital age, the C4 featured new electronic elements, including a digital dashboard found only in the early years. This generation carried Chevrolet through the 1980s and early ’90s, with the 1 millionth Corvette being a C4. The introduction of the ZR-1 restored the Corvette to peak performance, a status it hadn’t enjoyed since the late 1960s.
By 1990, the C4 platform had undergone various enhancements, solidifying its reputation as the first modern Corvette and setting a standard for future models. Subtle styling updates were made in 1991, and the C4 production concluded in 1996.
This particular 1990 C4 Corvette features several modifications including a popular 1990s Greenwood body kit. The car is powered by a 5.7-liter V8 rated at 245 HP and 345 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission.
