i've been reading up on corvettes (specifically the C4's) and your newsgroup is a wealth of information. I think I have my first corvette picked out and wanted some opinions from you experts. My brother in law owns a chevrolet dealership and he found this car for me. I've looked at about four others before this one. She's a 1988 triple black vette with auto trans and 80k miles. The previous owner took great care of her. The car looks great and runs excellent. Since he's family, he's offering the car to me for $9100. (plus tax and tags) which I think is a fair price. What common "gremlins" should i be looking for on this car? and, should I hold out for a 30-40k mile car? I'm wanting to stay in the $10k-$15k price range. This car would allow me to invest in better tires, and any other needed mods (i dont think 80k is a ridicules amount of miles). I'm buying it as a summer fun car that is replacing my motorcycle. I have an everyday driver for winter and just plain ol' ugly days. thanks in advance for any responses.
