1990 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe review from Italy
"A true super car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced Alt., and Battery
Common replacement for these cars.
AC compressor.
Rear rotors, they appeared to be the original so it was about time.
Exhaust system, replaced from the Cat Back with an Ansa Performance system, the original system lasted 10 years so no complaints there. Sounds MUCH better with the aftermarket system.
General comments?
Excellent automobile! Rides like it's on rails, cruises effortlessly at 100mph all day. 6 speed transmission is a joy to operate, power in all gears.
I don't believe that it's expensive to upkeep compared to all of the "imports" that I owned while I lived in the US.
I'd buy another one in a heartbeat and I hope to never be without a Corvette in the future!
