1991 Chevrolet Corvette polo green coupe Additional Info:
This car was bought by my uncle in NYC in 1992 and then imported in Europe.
After few years he gave it to me and I am taking care of this car for the past 20 years.
When I moved from Europe to USA five years ago, I took the car back to USA with me.
I have mostly focused on maintaining the mechanical side of the car rather than the outside as I needed the car to be reliable at much higher speed than conventional American driving, in order to sustain French and German interstates so, yes, this car has seen his top speed many times...
It has always been stored inside a garage.

GM should have built this car this way but pollution restrictions shocked it too much.
The car runs fantastic and is extremely reliable, zero overheat even in Florida traffic and makes much more power and torque than stock. General response time is much quicker.
the 700R4 is "virile", fast and tight, almost unbreakable as it can handle twice the power and you can beat it all day if you want.
With the 3.07 rear performance ratio option, the car is a blast to drive, with better miles per gallon as well, thanks to the German bosh injectors.
I do not drive it anymore except once a month to keep it from drying and it needs a new owner to enjoy it.
