I found that code referenced here, fwiw: C4 RPO codes and also here: http://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/c4-general-discussion/956104-c4-rpo-faq.html one other place: http://www.grandsportregistry.com/96_specs.htm Maybe on the '96, it's a carryover from the Grand Sport?

I've been following the comments over at the Yahoo! (tm) article about this, and the S-storm of hate for Corvette drivers is unbelievable! On top of that, some of the comments by Corvette drivers defending this are fueling the hatred. I always try to park far away, and yes, usually some deuche...

I must have been brain-dead by the end, because I missed the BMW guy saying he'd rather be in a Corvette! ;)

Well, that was 7 1/2 minutes of my life I'll never get back. To summarize: the BMW M4 has turbo chargers, the Vette is naturally aspirated. Even the BMW guy says the Vette sounds nice. The Corvette guy says the Vette has plenty of power, all the time. The BMW guy prefers the BMW, and the...

I personally do not like the wheels on the base model 2014 Stingray. The Z51 wheels, imo, are much better looking. So I am very pleased to see that there is a new base model wheel being offered for 2015. Does anyone else feel strongly one way or the other on the 2014 base model wheel? What...

I couldn't agree more. Competition breeds excellence. Viper has always been a worthy competitor for Corvette. :beer

For now, I'll have to make due with what I have. Mine would shoot me if I came home with a new one now! :r

I'm going to have to see this new gray in person, before I can decide if I like it or not. The color variation in these three photos tells me that it can't be judged, based on photos alone. OTOH, I will be sad to see Cyber Gray go. That's the color I wanted. Maybe Night Race Blue? I guess that's...

Very cool, indeed! C4's were well represented by your beautiful LT4! :thumb

AND the "Our View" editorial by Eric Gustafson, titled "Singing the C4's praises" is well written and heaps some much deserved (in my "unbiased" opinion) love on the C4 in general and its body style in particular. I also found the small article about the test drive of the C7 automatic to be...

Thanks Tuna, that's some good info. Ideally I could find wheels the same size as stock for my C4, but I'm certainly not counting on it. So if I do go for different size(s), this is the type of info I'll need! :thanks:

Thanks for the good info, Hib. I'm sure I would not want to go with 19/20 setup at all. I hate the profile of vehicles designed for smaller wheels that are riding on those big wheels with the thin tires. I actually usually laugh to myself when I see something like that. Ideally, I'd like to...

I would like to buy these c7 rims for my C4. I know we're waaayyy early in the process here, but does anyone know if Chevy or an aftermarket manufacturer will offer them in other Corvette wheel sizes?

Thanks for the info Hib. B&B is expensive, as is the Corsa. The least expensive seems to be Magnaflow, but in spite of Mario Andretti endorsing them, I've heard there are quality issues there. Believe it or not, I had already read your article about building the exhaust! So I figured you...

That is an OUTSTANDING story! Thanks for passing it along. Permagrin should be in the fold soon, hopefully! :Steer Like I try to tell people who don't understand what it means to drive a Corvette; if you consider driving to be pleasurable at all (meaning you view it as something more than just...

This seems like outstanding advice! A local Chevy dealer (Boardwalk Chevrolet in Redwood City, CA) is advertising Corvettes on the local sports talk radio station (KNBR 680), saying they'll give $10K off MSRP, because they want to sell as many C6's as possible, in order to get more C7's. Good...

I'm smiling, because I went through many of the same thoughts when I first got mine. I wanted to add the hopefully tasteful and subtle LT4 emblems, but can't find the one that goes on the rear, so I've settled for the one that presses into the DIC. I thought about buying the Z06-style LT4 Billet...

Hib, speaking of 3" exhaust, I was wondering if you had a general opinion of Billy Boat exhausts for the LT4, and the 3" version in particular. (Year: 1996 - LT-4, 3") I suppose I'm mostly asking about overall quality, warranty, etc. Sound is mostly a personal preference, but I'd be interested...

Nice photos! I love the fact that a C4 with the LT4 motor looks just like any other late C4. Until you open up the hood, like in the photo below, and then it looks like a GS. Which makes it a wolf in sheep's clothing, because when you put your foot into the accelerator, it takes off. Check...

It's relatively peaceful looking, imo. ;) Compare it to the new Lamborghini Veneno. Of course, the Lambo is just a tad out of most people's price range. PHOTOS: Lamborghini's New $3.9 Million Veneno Supercar | TIME.com
