The strong LT1 V8 provides smooth acceleration and the unmistakable rumble that enthusiasts love. Combined with the lightweight design, independent suspension, and near 50/50 weight distribution, it offers a driving experience that remains impressive even by today's standards. The rear wheel drive (RWD) system sends engine power exclusively to the back wheels, leaving the front wheels to handle steering. This separation provides superior acceleration and sharper handling. The four-wheel disc brakes improve vehicle safety and handling and provide superior stopping power and shorter braking distances. The 1996 model year holds special significance as the final year of the C4 Corvette, making it especially desirable among collectors and enthusiasts. It represents the culmination of years of refinement, offering improved reliability, exceptional handling, and classic styling that has aged remarkably well. This vehicle can be seen in detail including 200+ HD pictures and an HD video at gatewayclassiccars.com. It is located at the Chicago Showroom, 1329 Commerce Drive, Crete, IL 60417.
