Vehicle Description
In the late '80s and early '90s, few sports cars were more feared
than Callaway Corvettes. Closely tied to GM's factory operations,
Callaway's hotted up versions of the fourth-generation Vette helped
firmly establish the Corvette brand as a global tour de force. In
1996, one enthusiast had the fantastic idea of combining
Chevrolet's fresh LT4 with a Callaway-tweaked suspension, custom
Callaway Grand Sport aesthetics and 450 horsepower worth of
Callaway SuperNatural mechanicals. That creation, officially dubbed
the Callaway GS SuperNatural, continued the firm's legacy of
blending superb performance with proven reliability and unbeatable
exclusivity. Today, this stunning GS SuperNatural, a fully
documented, 11K mile custom that's been featured in multiple
publications, is a unique and equally awesome classic that'll hold
its own at both the show and the stoplight!
IT LOOKS FAST, BECAUSE IT IS FAST
Glowing a mere 10,418 miles from its bright digital odometer, this
razor-sharp Chevy is a one-owner garage queen that's assembly line
perfect in virtually every way. Crisp Artic White two-stage is a
glossy and vivid testament to serious motorsports pedigree,
especially when garnished with a black Grand Sport stripe and red
Grand Sport hash marks. Clean reflections dance across a
lightweight body that displays precise fit and excellent finish
under ancillary hardware that functions well and seals great. And
when that level of quality is combined with Callaway's world class
performance, it creates one seriously capable sports car that'll
show with the finest classics and absolutely blister the road!
The C4 Grand Sport is easily one of the most popular collector
Corvettes ever produced. This even more exclusive GS SuperNatural
began life as a highly optioned LT4 convertible that was sold
through Atlantic City, New Jersey's Kerbeck Chevrolet. And,
gradually, the car was methodically upgraded to become the high
speed, low-slung beast you see in our high-definition photography.
Delightfully analog angles begin with flowthrough Callaway
cross-flags that, like this Chevy's modified lighting and front
cooling ducts, are stamped into an extended Callaway Aero Body
nose-clip. Speaking of aero, wind slips up a Callaway-branded hood
to factory-fresh glass that's wrapped in your choice of either
tight cloth or body-matched fiberglass. "GRAND SPORT" branded
fenders, vented in traditional Callaway Aero Body fashion, lead
painted mirrors, polished door handles and massaged rockers. And at
the back of the car, an extended Callaway Aero Body valance centers
flush taillights and a Callaway-branded fuel door between
traditional Callaway quarter louvers.
SUPERNATURAL STROKER
The cool thing about Callaway's SuperNatural Package is that it
combines proven, age-old hot rodding techniques with GM's buttery
smooth LT4 to create a super car that's both formidable and
easygoing. Instead of the sometimes temperamental blowers found on
the firm's RPO Twin Turbo offering, the SuperNatural Package simply
bores, strokes and rebuilds GM's innately good small block to twist
a solid 450 horsepower into 450 lb./ft. of shoulder-slamming
torque. Behind that red-trimmed 383, a tough ZF 6-speed spins a
limited-slip differential around stout, 3.45 gears. The car's
multi-link suspension, finished with factory traction control, sits
low and mean thanks to a full Callaway coil-over upgrade. Turns are
easy thanks to factory power rack-and-pinion steering. Stops are
provided by requisite 4-wheel power disc brakes, which wrap muted
GM calipers around a quartet of drilled rotors. At the sides of
that stellar drivetrain, Callaway's SuperNatural exhaust weaves
fire-breathing power into a symphony of octane-fueled roars. And on
the outside of those binders, powder-coated CCWs spin 275/30ZR19
Hankook Ventus V12s in front of 305/30ZR19 Hankook Ventus V12s.
MORE CUSTOM THAN CUSTOM
Like its body, this C4's clean cockpit is pretty much one of a
kind. Professionally massaged by Hicksville, New York's AutoMat
Customizing and Restoration, the plush environment kicks off with
six-way power buckets that are stitched in a stylish combination of
tight Connolly Leather and soft Alcantara Ultrasuede. A soft
steering wheel laps a conservative dash that plants alluring
Callaway brandings in acres of custom ultrasuede. Thick Dynamat
insulation backs clean carpet, which floats Callaway-branded mats
between a stiff roll bar, customized side panels and customized
pillars that feature Callaway-installed accessory gauges. At the
center of the car, factory climate control joins optional
Delco/Bose audio to shade a factory shifter that's capped with a
Callaway-installed knob. And factory conveniences are as expected,
with power windows, power door locks and heated, power-operated
mirrors complementing Cruise Control and Remote Keyless Entry.
With impressive power, classic good looks and a full roster of
desirable options, there's no question this exclusive Callaway is
both collectable and appealing. It's fast, it's cooler than pretty
much anything on the road and, perhaps best of all, it's easy to
live with. If you're looking for a sweet car that you can enjoy
every chance you get, grab this unique C4 and transform your
commute from a bore to an absolute blast!
