Im about to get my drivers licence and i love muscle cars and also old sports cars but i have my mind on 2 cars. Should i pick this 1978 corvette stingray or the 1966 oldsmobile? Or give me some suggestions.

@CHUUMPASS

Thank you! It's funny, I'm a BMW guy. There's some irony here somewhere. ;)

And yes, it's a beautiful automobile. 

[CHUUMPASS]

@dreamcarreview you`re welcome, yea BMW´s ain't bad it`s just that i don't think they are special plus many american cars have a distinctive feel to them as they represent a special era, generally speaking i guess i mean they have character which others (no matter how good of an automobile they may be in their own right) just lack. BMW´s Mercs`and the likes certainly are fine cars, it is just that they somehow do not represent what captivates me personally. :)

@CHUUMPASS

GERMANY! YES!!!!!!! Okay, I'm wearing out my welcome but I love you guys! ;)

Thanks for the compliments about the car, it's Ron's baby and I'm sure he'll love to hear your comments.

Whats the asking price?

[dreamcarreview]

@duperrec

I think he's asking $29,990. And I can tell you it's worth every penny and more.

I've personally known about this car for over a decade. It's Ron's baby.

Beauty car. I haven't seen that passenger view of hood/fender since 84' when my dad sold his 78 S.A. He ripped out the L-82 and and threw in an L-T1 from a 70' vette so it drove & sounded pretty much like yours too. Is it still for sale? It's so good no one ruined it by putting on the 80'-82' bodyparts.

C3 are my favorite vettes

Just as I thought I figured it had an underdash 8-track player didn't need to take out the factory am/fm radio out!

This is my dream car, I'm 21 years old and I hope in the near future I would able to buy such a wonderful car, I'm going to buy it from USA, but I have to earn some money at first. I'm thinking about 1978 or 1979 model, but I must to admit that the 1989 model of Corvette with digital dashboard is in my interesting also. We'll see :)

@BarcaGOL

Thanks for sharing. Yes, the car was amazing. It was sitting for a while before we too kit out, but after a few it felt like twice the horsepower finally kicked in.

The cool thing about this car is that it's the owners baby.

Still available if you ever get the cash! ;)

@dreamcarreview Thanks for words of hope about availability :) I have a question about cost of car like this in USA, in my country - Poland, people who imported Corvette in perfect condition want something between 20000-25000 $, for example otomoto.pl/chevrolet-corvette-­1976- stingray-5-7-370km-piekna- C11150308.html that's for about 23000 $.
