Back in the 80's you could drive a Z flat out all the way from Georgia to Texas with no problems. My car loved it. In a Corvette, Camaro, and sometimes a Mustang, they would be running like dog chit when they got their. Motors would be done. That is why I love Z's so much. Back in the 70's, 80's, and 90's American made didn't mean chit. The C7 Corvette is the first Corvette that was worth a crap.

C5 and c6 vettes had solid powertrains, craptastic interiors, but good performance for their time.

I had a C3 & C4 (78 & 85). My 78 was slower than dog crap, had a crappy respray & the interior was a bit ragged.

My 85 had that gawd awful pad on the passenger's side. I took that out and replaced it with a glove box mod. I put a 160* thermostat in, a Hypertech Stage II chip, 25% underdrive on the pulleys and an epoxy plenum & runners. It was so much fun to see the look on 5.0 driver's faces when my 85 would beat them.

The big challenge with the C4 & C5s was the VATS, too many people kept half a hundred keys on a key ring and then couldn't figure out why the car wouldn't start. I lost count of how many VATS bypass cables I installed.

You know, I really dig the c4 vettes. Might actually be my favorite exterior style wise, kinda boxy and timeless like a z32 imo.
