Corvette History: The C4 Corvette was known for its evolved, sleek
and modern look. In a departure from the fiberglass panels of its
forebearers, the C4's rear bumpers and panels were made from
molding plastics, a sheet molding compound. The C4 fastback coupe
was the first general production Corvette to have a glass hatchback
(the limited edition 1982 Collector Edition being the first
Corvette equipped with this feature) for better storage access. The
Corvette C4 came standard with an electronic dashboard with a
digital liquid crystal display dash, with graphics for speed and
RPM and digital displays for other important engine functions. The
C4 represented a clean break from the previous generation of
Corvette with a completely new chassis and modern, sleeker styling.
The primary design emphasis, at least for the launch, was on
handling and braking, with all-independent suspension with
light-weight suspension and wheels, and all new brakes with
aluminum calipers. The front suspension saw the C3's coil springs
replaced by a transverse fiberglass mono-leaf spring, which was
only 1/3 of the weight of the coil springs while also introducing
an anti-roll bar-like effect on the front. The design of emphasis
on handling was ride comfort, especially with the Z51 performance
and handling package. The C4 did not use separate body-on-frame
construction like its predecessors. Instead, it used what GM termed
a "uniframe", which consisted of a traditional perimeter frame,
with the door posts, windshield frame, halo, and the rear portion
of the floor pan integrated into one welded assembly. Front Air
