When it comes to revolutionary designs in the automotive world, few cars, if any, can rival the transition from the end of the C3 generation to the revolutionary fourth-generation Corvette. With a shockingly low 41,992 actual miles on its odometer, this 1984 Chevrolet Corvette Z51 sports black paint stretched out over its sleek targa top design, further accentuating that this first-year C4 represents the biggest shift in design and technological advancement from one generation to the next for GM's halo car.
Inside, we find the (now) retro digital dashboard that is beyond cool and looks as though it would be right at home in an episode of Knight Rider (if K.I.T.T. were a Corvette) or a Back to the Future reboot, where Marty McFly chooses a quicker car this time around. Pop off the removable Targa top, sink into the plush black leather bucket seats, and enjoy the plethora of amenities like an original style AM/FM/cassette AC Delco stereo, power locks, windows, mirrors, driver's seat, air conditioning, and cruise control that make any road trip a comfortable one.
Under the signature front-hinged Corvette hood, we find a 350 cubic-inch L83 V-8 engine. Although 205 horsepower and 290 pound-feet of torque may not seem as exciting today as it did forty years ago, the C4's Crossfire-injected small block helped the 1984 Corvette run from 0-60 mph in less than seven seconds, making it one of the five or six fastest cars in the entire world at the time. Power is routed through a 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission before being sent to a 3.07-geared rear end on its way to a set of sixteen-inch factory alloy wheels shod in 255/50R-16 Falken tires.
