The C5 generation Corvette was a huge leap forward compared to the C4 generation — and not just because the new LS-series V8 was more powerful, or that the interior was “nicer”, but most importantly, the chassis wasn’t as floppy as the C4 a lawn chair zip-tied to a skateboard. If you want to go […]

Chevrolet’s C5 generation Corvette was a fast car, and competent in the turns — but when they released the Z06 edition in 2001 they turned the knob up to 11. For the first time in history you could, for $56,395, buy a car that would hit 60mph in less than 4 seconds, cover a 1/4 […]

The C4 generation Corvette was born in 1986 at the end of the malaise era but survived well into the sports car renaissance with the final models shipping for the 1996 model year. They are cheap to pickup on the used market today, so you might as well get a nice Grand Sport model from […]

We first featured this crazy rattle can panel painted Vette back in 2013 when it was ostensibly hauled from the garage of a guy (we’ll call him Larry) who owned it from 1974-2013 — now it is featured sans faux side header-pipes, but with some egregious ill fitting drag style wheels (front and rear). Find […]

We’ve stumbled on a real beauty ‘ere folks — and I’ve got to be really quiet or I might spook it. Just look at the paint job on the back of this one — she’s a female judging by the well defined hips and vents down the side, but I’m going to sneak in for […]

The original Corvette is a venerated icon in the automotive world; when released in 1953 it captured the heart of America, sort of like a young Luke Skywalker. A few years later the Corvette got better. The C2 Vette was the ultimate in badassery culminating in the Darth Vader ’63 Coupe (yes, that one). The […]

The C4 generation Corvette started production in 1982 just at the end of the malaise era and continued all the way through 1996 as the sports car renaissance was well underway. The C4 saw a number of special editions, including the 1990-1995 LT5 powered ZR-1, 1993 40th Anniversary package, and the exclusive Grand Sport, but […]

I won’t try and list the number of things that are simultaneously wrong and hilariously awesome about the next craigslist advertisement, but it starts with a statement about the price being as firm as Selena Gomez and finishes with a quip about parachute pants. Just don’t click the link if you are easily offended because […]

Update 3-Sept-2015: It appears the price of custom Porsche 944s closely follows the Shanghai stock exchange, because this 1984 Porsche 944 Porvette was offered for $18k earlier this year, but now it’s for sale at a dealer’s lot for $6,599 CAD ($5,431 USD). Tip from JJ who writes: Hey there… I just noticed that this […]
