What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 1978 Chevrolet Corvette express a strong fondness for the car's style, performance, and fun driving experience. Many appreciate its classic looks and handling, but some are disappointed with issues like fuel efficiency and difficulty in finding parts for maintenance. The blend of power and aesthetics stands out, making it a beloved classic despite some drawbacks."
Fantastic car!!! I had a L-82 with a 4-speed on the silver anniversary paint. Great car, amazing to drive. This is a slow one by Corvette standards however it is still a Corvette and loads of fun. This car is completely worth it!
March 26, 2008Always dreamed of having the 78 since high school. It rides nice and I have restored the majority of the mechanical systems. Looks good and gets lots of thumbs up from passers-by. Fun for the car shows and summer cruises.
January 23, 2015The C3 corvette is immensely fun to drive. It certainly has the looks and the power. However, is only a two-seater and it has no hatch so you unless you can get over the seats its not going in the car.

September 9, 2011custom built from the ground up late model stingray bored out 350 performance heads and carb 700r4 transmisiton five speed looking to put multiport fuel injection with twin turbo set up on it. over all its a dream car in the making. the custom color is blue pearl with black diamond dust set over it.
October 15, 2008I have owned my 78 Pace Car replica vette since early 1985 and basically love the car. As it gets (and I get) older, however, finding good mechanics who are familiar with older vehicles is becoming progressively more difficult.
January 11, 2008Several GM original parts are difficult to find. This appears to be a great vehicle / database to list information from a group of corvette subject matter experts
January 27, 2008It is a classic so who couldn't love it. It is sleek while looking intimidating and has power. Even better there is so much you could do with it. Engine compartment has plenty of space unlike new cars so it is easy to work on. Only downside I see can't drive it in the rain or snow.
August 5, 2008A fun, fast car with a fresh black paint job. The T-top is good and there are no leaks. Everything in the car works to my knowledge. It has a 350 V-8 with dual exhaust. It also sounds really good. It has a stock interior and has good tires and wheels

April 8, 2010Everything I mentioned in the "Pros". We get a load of compliments when showing it off at car shows and even thumbs-up from other drivers when cruising on the highway. The acceleration is awesome, from standing start to passing other cars while at speed.
