I had a C3 and a C5 - but the C4 is by far the best looking of them all - why all the negative issues and treated like a "red headed step child".

No special reason, it's just what happens when some one with no clue ( Ah that would be me ) put the wheels back on the car, comes out of winter storage in 8 days and I plan on getting them mounted the right way.

Those haters in OT usually date their 1st cousins and sometimes marry their own sisters. But only if their brothers weren't already involved with them. They don't want to upset the family.

My first C4 was a '95 Polo Green. Loved that color combo. Sold it to buy a white/red '99 coupe... While I like my current '93 Ruby Red, I was trying to find another Polo Green & had no luck...

To the OP, my problem isnt with the "most hated" statement... its with the Dodgers. Giants all the way baby!

No but seriously, welcome. Thats one nice lookin polo green c4. You may also find theyre not so unpopular in day to day life. I get nothin but compliments on mine regularly.

Congrats on a beauty. I miss my Polo '95, but when it came time to choose, red on black won the toss.

Just like black, the Polo will have you breaking out the wash bucket at every opportunity. But when clean, it is stunning.

Haha, that's the color the 'vette I just got! Bright Aqua Metallic. First time I've ever seen the color person too, fell in love with it immediately.

its in my honest opinion the best color for the C4. plus its pretty rare! you hardly see any that color on the road. red and black all day. hell even silver. but not aqua green! those look killer with chrome ZR1 wheels.

this one was for sale locally, for $2500 (just had 6 years of DMV fees due, which I found out was about $700) but the car needed work. interior was trashed, but the exterior was MINT! all car needed was the seats re-upholstered and new carpet. (oh and figure out why it didnt run )

Nice Corvette, always liked the green even if you must do a lot of wash/detail.
