As they say, different strokes for different folks, especially when it comes to car customization. Even so, we think this custom C4 Chevy Corvette looks like an ‘80s-era fever dream, with a massive body kit, a legion of airbrushed tigers, and oodles of extra custom touches inside and out, and even underneath. Now, this custom C4 Chevy Corvette is up for sale.
Recently posted for sale by Streetside Classics in Atlanta, Georgia, the first thing to grab us is the outrageous exterior treatment, with a white pearlescent top that fades into a mauve pink in the lower panels. This C4 Chevy Corvette is equipped with a full custom body kit, including a new body skirts and a massive Ferrari F40-style rear wing. And of course, we have to mention all those airbrushed tigers, which were added to the hood, the rear, and even undercarriage. Yes, even the undercarriage has a tiger on it.
“You can almost hear the keytar solo as you inspect the full graphics package on the rockers,” the listing says.
The mauve color theme continues into the interior, where we find custom upholstery and “VETT” embroidered into the headrests. Wood trim adorns the dash and center console, and there’s a pair of tiger paws airbrushed onto the rear seatbacks.
Interior features include power windows, power locks, power steering, a cassette player, and an AM/FM radio. This C4 also has A/C, which, according to the listing, “likely” needs a new charge.
Raise the hood, and you’ll find the 350 V8 engine sporting a plethora of gold finishes for various components, as well as an airbrushed intake. The V8 connects to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission, while a set of four-wheel disc brakes haul it all down.
Now, this, uh, “unique” C4 Chevy Corvette is up for sale, listed at $26,995 with 40,170 miles on the clock.

Parece el carro del futuro !!!
“It looks like the car of the future !!! ” It looks like Barbie on a bender designed it!
I’m sure it smells like hairspray. There’s no accounting for taste, i kinda like it ,because i love both C4 and 80s era pastel hues.
Well, maybe a little much at times. The tiger on the underside? Not sure how it’s survived, has to be pretty recent. And the mauve, pink…..I agree with the comment about hairspray. Would make a better “chick” car to me. The graphics are very unique though. Don’t think I’ve seen this combo before. Nope. But a decent price I think.
It was the thing in the 80s and early 90s. I did lots of pinstriping and mini-graphics on Vettes and minitrucks back then Flames, striping, graphics, checkerboard, heartbeats, waves, splashes, and many other painted artsy things that now are considered tasteless. Thru the decades the automobile has been the ultimate form of rebellion especially when one’s personality is applied and criticized or opposed by a long line of vehicular commoners. As I’ve preached many times, cars and humans are very much alike. Multiple personalities and that is a reflection of what we drive.
Not for me
