When the C4 debuted for the 1984 model year, it was a quantum leap for Chevy's iconic Corvette. With just 28,005 actual miles on its odometer, this Bright Red 1989 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible looks just as striking today as it did more than 35 years ago. With its manual white canvas top up or down, the unmistakable lines of the fourth generation look fantastic from any angle.
Inside, we find a sporty and original-looking leather interior. A high center storage center console separates a pair of plush and supportive power seats. The two-spoke power-assisted steering wheel sits ahead of the fantastically fun C4 digital dashboard, featuring video-game-style gauges. Although the Kenwood AM/FM/CD/AUX head unit is a modern upgrade over the unit it replaces, its digital readout looks right at home inside the futuristic-feeling C4's interior. Power locks, windows, and mirrors, along with air conditioning and cruise control, as well as dual cupholders, offer all the modern amenities one could hope for in a late-1980s sports car.
Under that signature front-hinged hood, we find a 5.7-liter overhead valve V-8 engine. With its cast-iron block, lightweight aluminum heads, tuned-port injection system, and factory exhaust setup, this small block was capable of producing a legitimate 245 horsepower at 4,300 rpm and 340 pound-feet of torque at 3,200 rpm when I rolled off the assembly line. That power is funneled through a 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission before being sent out to the 2.59-geared rear end, which transfers those ponies to the pavement via a set of big five-spoke 19-inch alloy wheels shod in 285/35ZR-19 Hankook rubber. At the same time, a staggered set of 18-inch wheels wrapped in narrower 245/40ZR-18 tires handles steering duties up front.
