For Sale: 1996 Chevrolet Corvette in Lavergne, Tennessee

Commemorating the 30th and final production year of the C4 era, the 1996 Chevrolet Corvette Collector's Edition was distinguished by a Sebring Silver exterior color, 17-inch ZR-1-style wheels, unique badges, and embroidered seats. Chevrolet built only 5,412 of them, in coupes and convertibles, including this beautiful 13,821-mile example.

Few fourth-generation Corvettes are more desirable than the 1996 Collectors Edition. These final special-edition Corvettes were built as a send-off to the fourth-generation model. The 1996 LT4 equipped Corvettes were the most powerful, most refined and the most sought-after model year of the C4 generation, partly because they were a well-conceived special edition model and partly because of the LT4 engine that came standard in models equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission.

This Corvette comes equipped with the high-performance LT4 engine and selective, real-time damping suspension. The LT4 is a heavily sought-after engine because it features a higher compression ratio of 10.8:1 and 330 horsepower (both of which were commonly believed to be understated by GM when the car was first introduced). Most of the Collectors Edition cars were well equipped with options and this exceptional example is no exception, featuring power windows, power seats, air conditioning, tilt steering column, power leather seats and a Delco/Bose Gold Series AM/FM/cassette/CD player. Additionally, this Corvette LT4 comes with two removable roof panels - the standard painted roof as well as the highly desirable tinted transparent roof panel. Still wearing its original Sebring Silver Metallic paint finish applied at the factory, this low-milage Corvette is a time capsule of originality. A well cared for, tight, solid original, this special edition Corvette is a pleasure to drive. Included with the car is the original window sticker and owner's manuals.
