I love the C4 because it looks dated. It looks like 80's muscle. I love that!! I think 1990 was the penultimate in looks for the Corvette, at least as far as ones I would own. I appreciate the style of the 50's and 60's for sure, but can't see owning one. And the new C6 looks nice again.

I've thought that too about the newer cars. But if you look at a Bright Red from the 80's through 1992, they are a very red red, even slightly dark. It's much redder than the later C5's. In fact, the Callaway I went to look at was a Bright Red, and the guy replaced it with a 2003 red Z06. The difference in redness was very apparent. The Z06 was an orangish red and the B2K was darker and very red.
