C4s are torquey beasts and lots of fun in their own right, but anyone growing up anytime near the 1980s knows that the Callaway Twin Turbo Corvette was one of the true kings of the street at the time.
For a lot less money, these ‘Vettes offered performance at or near Italian supercars of the day. As an added bonus, the non-performance mods are minimal, offering a slight bit of sleeper quality, to the extent any Corvette can be a sleeper.
This car claims low miles and appears to be in great shape. The open question is whether $29K is remotely reasonable at this point. It’s in line with low-mile, early ZR-1 prices, so maybe it’s not crazy. Should these be as valuable as GM’s own in-house supercars, or do you think they’re worth more? There are legitimate arguments on both sides, but sales through the dealer network put Callaway in a rarified space shared with Shelby and Saleen, among very few others.
