1996 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Coupe

Car History

One of the coolest special editions ever made was the 1996 Grand Sport Corvette like we have here at Adventure Classics. They were limited to just 1000 models and we believe it was the best-looking C4 ever built.

It has a high degree of collectability, and it is a collector Corvette that keeps rising in value.

Engine & Drivetrain

Grand Sports used the final version of the iconic small block Chevy V8, the LT4. It had a hotter cam, higher compression, revised engine mapping with 40 more horsepower over the standard LT1, has a 6-speed manual gearbox, red intake manifold, A/C, factory air filter assembly, FE1 suspension, massive disc brakes, with black sidewall performance tires on those black wide factory wheels.

It looks mostly factory stock as it sits in a clean and detailed looking engine compartment and handles superb with the fully independent suspension.

Interior

The black interior in this coupe has great grippy and supportive bucket seats and are upholstered in leather, has a combination digital/analog instrument panel, 6-speed manual gearbox shifter, Preferred Equipment Group #1 with electronic climate control, power driver's seat, and a Delco/Bose sound system.

It is a well-presented interior loaded with keyless entry, power locks, power windows, power seats, air conditioning, tilt steering column, cruise control, and an AM/FM/cassette/CD stereo with speakers by Bose.

Exterior

The Grand Sport is painted in Admiral Blue with white stripe and red hash marks on the front fenders which looks similar to the '60s Grand Sport 'Vettes that were driven by Zora Arkus-Duntov.

The bodywork was completely stock on the Grand Sport with fender flares over the rear wheels which permit the use of larger ZR-1 sized tires on the coupes and the Grand Sport badges, with it soundings as good as it looks with rectangular tips coming out the back too.
