Paint Only A Mother Could Love: 1994 Chevrolet Corvette


I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again; the C4 Corvette has to be worth something more than scrap value in the near future. It’s a classic and the good ones will demand crazy money, but even the purple wrecks will be worth something because someone will convert them back to stock and fix ’em. And before you say “it’ll never be worth anything” — just remember that there was a time when you could get 69 Corvettes for next to nothing (probably when this 94 was new) and they are expensive today. So I’m putting this car into the “ready for appreciation even though it is purple” group. Find this 1994 Chevrolet Corvette offered for $6,500 buy-it-now in Sandown, NH via eBay.

If this were a Porsche it would be aubergine 🍆 and worth extra.
This color would look nice on that Europa.
Of course if it were an Angelyne Corvette shade of violet then you would have something.
“Well, I couldn’t find an LT1 Corvette in mint condition, but I was able to find one in purple basil… is that close enough?” I don’t mind the body color, but the wheels need that flaking black paint removed ASAP, and it looks like the leather and weatherstrip also need replacement too.
…and this seems like a state record for newest car not to need a title.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but the traction control isn’t going to be tripping the SRS light. I’m having a hard time seeing how those would be connected. The SRS light is going to be on because of an airbag fault or a bad clockspring or something like that.
This car would be right for track use without worrying about wear and tear. Also, what’s wrong with purple?! I’m so tired of black/white/silver cars that seeing something purple is refreshing. Just me?
I’m guessing the SRS light may be connected to the not-quite-the-same-purple front bumper.
