1984-2010 Chev Corvette market review 2020
1984 brought an all-new Corvette with a major injection of sophistication and involvement from sports-car manufacturer Lotus in its design. C4 values were depressed for a long time but now are climbing, with all the pre-1993 models making gains.
Looking at later C5 and C6 cars the money available is steady for C5s and up a little if you’re angling to own a 2007-10 Corvette. The ZR-1 and Callaway twin turbo cars offer some hope to collectors but among the rest there aren’t any obvious candidates. Best advice is to get a car that is original – so not RHD converted – with manual transmission and lots of history.
