1996 Chevrolet Corvette 96 Corvette Rare Collectors Edition LT4 330hp 6-speed Year Make Model Mileage 1996 Chevrolet Corvette 85,837 Exterior Interior Stock VIN Silver Gray #114683 1G1YY3250T5114683 Engine 5.7L (350) SFI V8 engine AutoCheck ----------------------------- view new window sticker Description 1996 Chevrolet Corvette Mike's Place is proud to offer this 1996 Corvette with the rare LT-4 / 6-speed combination. It is also a Collector's Edition. The MSRP on this vehicle was about $50,000. Collector's Editions were limited releases and marked the end of the 12 year run of the C4 Corvette. In 1996 Chevrolet produced 469 Convertible Collector Edition LT-4 Corvettes, and only 244 came with black interior. With the addition of the new LT-4 engine which cranks out 330 horespower, this vette goes from 0-60mph in only 4.9 seconds. Kelley Blue Book currently values this car at $20,465. We are offering this car for the low price of $12,990. The vehicle history report shows the mileage as accurate with absolutely no accidents reported. The title is 100% clean. The interior is in beautiful condition. The leather seats show almost no wear at all. Both power seats function properly. The dash is in great condition. All the gauges seem to function properly and the digital display looks great. There are no check engine light or warning lights on of any kind. All the plastic trim along the dash and door panels look very good. I tried all the buttons located on the dash and door panels and everything seemed to function properly. The air conditioning blows ice cold and the heater works. The door panels are in great shape and the power windows work properly. The headliner is in fantastic shape. The radio works and the speakers sound great. For a 14 year old car, I would say the interior is about as nice as one could expect. The exterior of the car is silver and beautiful. The body is straight and dent free. I did not see any dings either. This is a rust free California car. Both bumpers look nice and straight as well. The paint looks really nice and glossy. The convertible top is in excellent condition with no rips or tears. It has very nice 17 inch alloy wheels. The rims are in good shape. The rear tires look like new and the front tires are in good shape. Please check out the pictures to see condition of rims and tires. All the glass is in good shape with no visible cracks. Overall, the exterior is in excellent condition. This car comes with the 330 horsepower LT4. This is a nice upgrade over the standard LT1. The engine runs strong and the transmission shifts nicely through the gears. This would make a great daily driver. Please look at all the pictures and keep in mind that this is not a brand new car. Normal wear is to be expected. There will be a $55 doc fee and a $95 auction services fee added to the winning bid. There is no exceptions. California residents will also be charged sales tax, registration and smog fees. We require a $250 deposit within 24 hours via paypal, bankwire or cash in person.

Harsh weather conditions cause all sorts of problems, both seen and unseen. In some states, finding cars buried under a pile of snow is common. Things such as salty roads, snow, ice and rain will cause rust and excessive wear on your cars metal components. Cold weather can also cause many problems with today's engines and electrical components. Looking for a convertible? Convertibles in many states will often sit for months at a time. California cars are driven and maintained year round. Looking for a 4x4 or AWD vehicle? These types of vehicles have very hard lives in some states. Harsh weather conditions not only create problems with how your car operates, it will also effect your cars appearance. It might be from salt, snow, rain, hail, rocks, potholes and floods or from something as simple as muddy shoes or wet clothes. The reasons for considering a California car can go on and on. This is where we step in. We sell about 80% of our cars to out of state buyers. We can create a simple buying experience and can help have your new car delivered right to your front door. If you want to fly in, we are located just minutes away from Orange County/Santa Ana Airport. We would be more than happy to shuttle you to our facility. Thank you for visiting our website and we look forward to making your next purchase as simple as possible.
