Happy Sunday everyone. I hope you enjoy Robert's take here. Which one would you choose? Enter into the BOS HUGE Giveaway here: thebrinkofspeed.com/

@msledge50 Год назад

I like that C4.The C4 was the beginning of the modern day vettes.

@MCGDEC Год назад

Good to know C5 convertible is the most roomy Corvette to date. Had one since 04, and this fact motivates me to keep it being 6'3". Still love it.

@TJsVette 4 месяца назад

My favorite color on the C5 is the Electron Blue! It for me, its just beautiful! I wanted a C4 corvette in the 90s but as a teen there was no way I could afford one. When the C5 came out it was over for me. I knew one day I would own one. Granted it took me about 25 years to get it but I'm one of the happiest people on earth! The trunk space is awesome. My only wish and if there was a way to do it I would and that is to change the dash from a C5 to a C6. I love the interior from the C6. I would have gone with a C6 but when they dropped the pop up headlights that did me in. I still smile every time when I get in and drive. Had mine for 2 years and won't sell it!

@curtiswangrud8748 Год назад

Currently own both (even had a 66 327 nassau blue vert for about two weeks a zillion years ago) and love both for different reasons. The C4 is a much nimbler car. The C5 simply has great aesthetic appeal. Cant go wrong with either one. Oh, and the plastic buttons (door locks and whatnot) on the C4 are much more of a pain to address than the rubber C5 buttons. Good stuff guys!!

@BrinkofSpeed Год назад

Thanks Curtis, I’m glad you enjoyed it. 👍😊

@connor3288 Год назад

What exactly do you mean by nimbler? Feels smaller, or handles better, more of a neutral/oversteery car than c5? Im thinking of getting a c5. The ls1, stiff aluminum chassis, and smooth body have me pretty sold

@curtiswangrud8748 Год назад

@@connor3288 Definitely smaller car feel and the handling feels tighter (check turning radius of C4 vs C5 and im sure C4 is much smaller/tighter, but its not like a C5 is a boat). I have been spending a lot of time in the seat of the C5 lately and its just a little better overall. Its cliche, but you cant go wrong with either. GL!!

@corvette72778 Год назад

I've had both. The ease of taking the targa top off on the C5 make it a better buy. But I love everything else about the C4 including the show off reverse flip up headlights, the whole front end that opens up, the cockpit style driver seat, and that its smaller and lower to the groud and you sit lower to the ground. The C5 lost the cockpit feel. The C5 is the best looking Vette of all times. Its a curvier C4. After owning a C4, C5, C6 and my still owned C7, I went back and bought another C4.

I'm 75 and still get in and out OK but I don't take it when I have half a dozen errands but prefer it when it's a longer cruise in and out only a couple of times.

@MrRaverion 8 месяцев назад

Nice review. Seat belts on the C5 can be locked by pulling the belt all the way out from the belt tensioner and letting it go. When you pull it again, the seat will be locked around your body. One special feature not many know about the C5 is the instrument lumination is provided by black lights on both sides of the display hidden behind the instrument control panels.

@TheCosmicGuy0111 Год назад

C4 is way better looking and more aesthetic imo

@cheapme1850 8 месяцев назад

One word - Optispark. The C4 is nice but I wouldn’t touch one due to the abomination of that infernal device. My experience was with Camaros but similar to C4 versus the C5 - I had a 1997 Z28 with the LT1 and it was one of the worst cars I’ve ever had, traded it in for a 1999 Z28 (Catfish) with the LS1 and it was the best car I’ve had, simply because of the engine.

@vikingtrad3r Год назад

own a 99c5 mn6 and several c4’s. daily drive both. track both. c5 does have cinch. simply pull belt all the way out, it will now cinch on retract same as c4. c5 seats, be it for track or road trip, suck hard. C4 seats designed by Lear better in every situation. 89-93 sport seats being best, followed by 84-88 sport. 94+ was a step towards c5 seats, however the 94+ sport seats can be ok with a harness. other than the targa top removal, i prefer everthing about the c4.

@corvetteworldrob8586 Год назад

Good to know, thank you. Agreed on the seats for track use, but for me I find the 94-96 seats more comfortable for the street drives.

@misterjones6599 8 месяцев назад

I've owned two C4s, a 95 and a 96 collector's edition, bought a C5 I love four years ago, and bought a C6 last month. No contest to me, each generation is better than the last IMO. Loved my C4s, but my C5 is just a superior car, and I'm amazed at how much better than that my C6 Z51/3LT is. They've all got plenty of power, but handling is my top priority, and my Z51 is the best handling car I've ever driven. I have a bunch of favorite twisty roads I drive on regularly and I can hit them 10-15 mph or more faster in the C6 than I can in my other cars. I've owned literally dozens of performance cars, have a 2000 WS6 TA I can't part with in addition to my Vettes and while I know there are many better handling cars to choose from I'm quite happy with the C6. If I'm hitting twisties at 70 and 80 and the occassional 90-100 that's enough of an adrenaline rush fix for me. I'd love to upgrade to the C7 Z51 or even better the Z06 but that's just too much coin for this peasant.

@KRGruner Год назад

I love my 2002 C5 Coupe. Have been driving it for 21 years, including (for the first 11 years) on the autobahn in Germany (175mph, check!). Great car. No issues whatsoever with the rubber buttons. Love the cargo space.

Although I have one, it's nice to learn a few things I didn't know. While I am not in the market, currently, for a new C8, I find it informative going through your videos nonetheless and greatly enjoy them. Keep up the good work!

@everjeff Год назад

I started my Corvette journey with the C6 generation so never had a C4 or C5. The C5 is a real bang for the buck though, you can find them pretty reasonable. The C4 seems like it would be tough to get in and out with the way the door sill is but maybe not for some.

@BrinkofSpeed Год назад

Nice 😊

@kerry_glock Год назад

@ObscureStuff420 Год назад

The first C4 I had I bought from a gentleman who was selling it because it hurt his knees to get out. I am fortunate to be nimble and flexible and can drop right in. I think I will use the ability to get in an out of it as a health marker 😆 The nice thing about it is that you really feel IN the car and surrounded by it, like you are in a cockpit.

@tommissouri4871 9 месяцев назад

Great and informative video. You are the first to mention the lack of passenger foot room on the C4. It is sadly why I don't have one, knowing my wife would never be happy riding with me in one. How does your wife feel about traveling yours? You can thank a friend of mine for your excellent C4 brakes. He stopped at the Bowling Green plant in late '89 and Tom Hill took him out to brag on the ABS brakes. My friend was impressed by how well behaved the brakes were, stopping under control on high center crowned roads in the wet while driving around curves and changing lanes. But then, he began out-stopping the ABS without the ABS kicking in. Tom said that was impossible, because he wasn't hitting the brakes hard enough to get the ABS to kick in. My friend replied but he was stopping in a shorter distance without the ABS than with the ABS, with Tom said was also impossible. Tom said he was going to contact engineering on this and find out why. A few months later, Motor Trend (I think) had an article with Danny Sullivan who was also out-braking the ABS on their test car, but was informed that Chevrolet was already making changes on that.

Interesting video. It just so happens that I owned each of these 2 cars (1995 C4 and 2001 C5) as my first two corvettes. The C4 was a removable top coupe and the C5 was a convertible. Both had white exteriors (C4 with red interior and C5 with black interior). I really felt fortunate to own these two cars. I haven't owned a Corvette since I traded in my C5 in 2004, but I dream about owning a new Corvette someday if the availability ever improves. Like a lot of people, I'm wondering if we will ever see new C8s listed at MSRP on dealer lots in the future.

Excellent video guys! I owned a ‘93 red on red, 6-speed years ago and still miss that old girl. Funnest, most beautiful car I’ve ever owned and I’ve owned many cars and trucks. I removed that stupid center resonator and installed 40 series Flowmasters, but kept the factory tips. That not only woke it up a little, but gave it more of a big block sound, yet quieter in the cabin. Never had an ounce of trouble with that car either. I love all the generations, but the C4 still looks fast even sitting still. Also, the fact that it’s the only generation to offer that wrap around race car hood just makes it more appealing. It was built for serious business. The C5 is much better as far as engineering and performance, but the styling for some reason just bores me very quickly. They fixed that in the C6 though. I love that Z06 parked there and that’s exactly the type I’d like to buy soon. They’re all beautiful cars though. Thanks again for the very informative video!

Everything, even the door handles on C5 are rounded and the car looks bloated as compared to C4 especially the enormous butt used to cover the transaxle.. For me it's C4 or C6.

@Henry-sk2dr Год назад

Well done Robert, nice comparison. OK, I'm going to be "that guy" for a minute ( sorry). Robert mentioned (I believe) that the C4 and C5 could come with a Tremec 6 speed. The '89-'96 C4 came with a ZF 6 speed (long German name). Prior to '89 the C4 had a Doug Nash 4+3. I have a little personal experience since I've owned an '87 , '96 LT4 and '02 Z06. I believe GM went to the T56 Tremec in the first year of the C5 1997. 😊

@corvetteworldrob8586 Год назад

No, you are right, caught my mistake. The 89+ had the Zahnradfabrik Friedrichshafen MN6 option. Early ones built in Germany (Black Tag) later made in US (Blue Tag). And yes, the Borg Warner later Tremec T56 started in 1997.

@brandonherrera2891 Год назад

Correct, I was about to point that out myself. Which do you prefer of the 3 Vettes you've had? I currently have a 96 lt4 collector and a 92 zr-1. To me, the C4's are just so much more fun to drive. And I prefer the zf6 over the t56.

@markuslindal 9 месяцев назад

Great video. I have been a Corvette fan for most of my 57 years. I have owned five C4's one C5, two C6's and two C7's. The current Vette is a 2019 Grand Sport. I have loved all of them but my favourite was the 96 Collector Edition convertible with the six speed standard transmission. Without a doubt each year and each generation brought improvements, my C7 is absolutely a better car than the older ones and I'm sure the C8 is better yet, but I'm considering going back to a C4. There is something special about the road feel and rawness in the C4 that you don't get with the newer versions. As I see it the refinement took away some of the thrills.

I owned an 87 Vette. I absolutely loved it! I beat the hell out of it and never had one since issue with the cluster or really anything else. I did somehow crack the intake manifold, and the tranny started slipping around 130k. But like I said, i beat the hell out if it! My buddy was a gm mechanic and he worked it over !with just about every bolt on available. Plus I made a cai for it, had an off road exhaust put on it😊 custom tune and it would almost hang with a 90 ZR-1 but the 93 would walk me 😂😂

C5 Owner here. You could get tape and CD in a C5..it's just with the CD changer in the back (as you mentioned later in the video). My wife decided that she likes driving my Denali Pickup more than her old Acura, so I've been driving my Vette more often. It has to been THE MOST practical sports car even made (and I've owned 3 4th Gen F-Bodies). It's perfect for everything from grocery shopping to cruising with the Targa top off to spirited driving in the hills.. hard to beat for the price.

For $400 you can put wireless CarPlay in a C4...

The c5 is easier to get in and out of and the electronics is more modern but the plastic gets creaky sounding and the headlights are noisy. I’m good with my C6 with Corsa Sport, the exhaust system purchased at Corvette World.

JETSTREAM BLUE all the way!!

C4 I own a 96 LT 4 6 speed manual

@kallo182 Год назад

Wow. I always wanted a 96 LT4 in Black. But in Germany they are more rare than a Ferrari F40.

@rjoetting7594 Год назад

I would love to have both and add a C-6 in for good measure 😊 I currently own a 93 C-4 artic white, with just over 70,000 miles on it. It's all stock except for the wheels the previous owner had installed. I absolutely love it, and I also love the look on peoples faces when climbing out, I'm almost 6'4" and 285 lbs (yes, I actually fit in the car) tight but comfortable. My other car is in a 95 Z28 Camaro, also white pushing almost 200,000 miles and still running strong. The LT1 engine is very underrated, claiming 300 hp it actually has more hp than the 1970 LT1(365 hp), the difference is the way that the hp was measured, 1970 no accessories or air filter, headers dyno-tune, ect... 1992 all accessories and factory exhaust.

@graphman8402 10 месяцев назад

yes, LT-1 dynos better than LS-1, so GM underrated to sell LS-1 to public

@richardw5450 7 месяцев назад

Have had c4s and c5 in my opinion the c5 is definitely the better car construction wise and also the ls1 motor more power but both ran well and both were dependable good cars 8:23

Owned a 1990 C4 'vert A4 that I eventually put a mild 383 into as well as a cam/bolt on 2004 Z16 that made 420rwhp. Completely different cars. The C4 was a powersliding giggle machine and the C5Z was a serious exotic-car destroyer.

I've got a '94 "Brickyard 400" convertible, with a ZR-1 tire setup, and Fikse forged aluminum racing wheels. Still have the original "sawblade" wheels stacked up in a corner of the gargage...I also added Baer brakes with cross-drilled and slotted rotors. Larger than stock on the front. I also removed the air box, and have a K&N filter held in place by a metal frame. The car handles incredibly with 275's in front, and 315's on the back, and can stop great...

I had a 00 Nassau Blue 6sp I flew to Arlington to pick it (2011) and drove it back to Indy! Loved it,big mistake selling it ! I drove it 40,000 miles in two years! Would love another,and all though I now have a Laguna C7 Z06…if I had also a Nassau B C5 I would drive it more than the Z! Jetstream Blue GS (w/6sp) is my all time fav!

@jamesmkay 24 дня назад

I’d love to get all the different blue corvettes together. Mine is electron blue and it looks a lot like those blue ones in the video!

@windycitywarrior71 Год назад

Great video! Do c6 vs c7 next!

@BrinkofSpeed Год назад

I’m happy you enjoyed it. Sure thing. 👍😊

@kj475 Год назад

That's a beautiful C5, but that exhaust has got to go. Without the quad tips, it looks like it's missing something. The LED lights are a nice upgrade.

@StupidFastTruck Год назад

Robert sure knows his Corvettes.

@BrinkofSpeed Год назад

Sure enough man.

@robertsmith1768 Год назад

The C4 used a ZF 6-speed. Not Tremec.

@innerlightfilms Год назад

NEVER selling my Black 93 ZR-1! Its one of 54 in that color for that year. Its the best year for ZR-1 IMO too.

@BrinkofSpeed Год назад

The C4 ZR1 is an icon for sure! I love it!

@corvetteworldrob8586 Год назад

NEVER SELL IT!! :)

@kallo182 Год назад

Why is 1993 the best year for a ZR1?

@innerlightfilms Год назад

@@kallo182 Being that it was the 40th anniversary year, all cars got the embroidered headrest (although I hear that was a mistake on GMs part). The "official" anniversary cars were the most ordered, so out of 448 produced in 93, the majority are ruby red. That makes all other colors produced a low number. In 93 the HP bumped up to 405 and you still got a glovebox with a better looking dash surround (of course that's my opinion) I just feel like they cheaped out on the 94/95 dash. If you get one with the stock wheels, they are a one year only machined finish sawblade. I cant think of any other year having so many specifically cool figures.

@keithdevoe9116 Год назад

C4 in my opinion is the better car

@stuartsmith5308 5 месяцев назад

The C5 might be better in nearly every way than the C4. But the C4 looks special, where as the C5 has no appeal. Love a C4 , wouldn't look at any other Corvette.
