Let's start this article with a long, slow whistle through the teeth. That's how good the 1991 Chevrolet Corvette looked then, and can still look now if you can find a good one to restore. In the middle of the C4 generation, Chevy revamped its Corvette, and the 1991 was the result. Details that had been limited to only the ZR-1s in 1990 were now on all models, including the rear convex fascia which would grow to be an identifying feature for the Corvettes of the early 90s. Of course, as much as we want to buy Corvettes for their beauty, the power is what keeps us. The ZR-1 engine was a 350-ci, 5.7-liter monster capable of 375 horsepower at 5800 rpm. Driving felt like flying when I was behind the wheel of my old 'vette. Just another footnote. The ZR1 model Vette is 3" wider in the rear than a normal Vette to fit the 11" wide rear wheels. The ZR1 was powered by a Lotus Engineering designed, 4 cam, 350ci, all aluminum LT5 V8, that produced between 375 and 405hp depending on the year of production. :)

It is very dependable,fast and with the new tires it holds the road and corners like its glued to the road. and the color changes depending on how you look at it in the sunlight. never been in the shop except for routine maint,and has never broken down while on a trip, seats hold you firm in the car and are very comfortable. the car is a blast to drive, and i always feel safe driving in it. i would recommend the car to any one who wants to own a vette. i use the car for good days driving. its a pleasue driven vehicle. It also gets great gas milage in the city and on the road, fire it up and here the v-8 rumble and your ready to go.
July 31, 2011The early to mid 90’s ZR1 is an iconic car. 375 to 405 hp in early 90’s was supercar level. 24 hour endurance speed record around 170 mph, pretty awesome.
August 26, 2022It's a fun car to drive, and always turns heads. While fueling up I'm constantly getting compliments on the car. The gas mileage at 23MPG is phenominal! Although the top is down during the majority of my driving, the top goes up in ~ 15 seconds or less whenever there's that chance of rain. The Bose system has been completely refurbished and sounds great.

August 7, 2012These have always been my favorite model and generation of Corvette. 91 is the last year for the L98 motor and the car has the updated body from the ZR1. Half classic muscle, have high tech sports car. The C4 is amazing to drive and they are very affordable now
August 24, 2022Recently purchased this wonderful white coupe. It handles the corners great and is a true pleasure to drive. I look forward to many years behind the wheel.
December 6, 2007never driven in winter can't find anything bad to say about the car almost perfect condition this car still has that new car smell. If you decide to drive it hard you had better hold on. you won't be disappointed
May 8, 2011i bought this corvette with 41thousand miles on the clock,the car has been reliable and never breaking down,i have 84thousand miles on it now,i replace the alternator,starter,plugs,wires every 36 months and a tune and service on regular basis.a corvette can be a money pit if you dont stay on top of it and take prevenitive measures to ensure optimal conditions.for the best handling you must run on high end performance tires.i love everything about this corvette and the build quality is exceptional.the 1991 corvette does need larger brake calipers as the oem brakes are not sufficient for braking,the bose stereo is very good,clean and crisp.
January 14, 2013It's a great car for a couple. it is not intended to be a family car. I would buy another one just like it, in fact I am looking for another one at the present time. If you want a fun car this is the one for you.
August 5, 2014Radios are not that reliable however, this is a good value. The engines are reliable, ride smooth. Radio power antennas can be problematic. Be sure to run often during storage, to prevent build up in fuel filter.
