Seller's Notes

This C4-generation Chevrolet Corvette Callaway Twin Turbo is a rare and powerful modern classic American coupe, which is recorded as number 94 of just 164 examples produced for the 1987 model year. Its engine is a Callaway-developed twin-turbocharged 5.7-litre V8, delivering around 332kW (445bhp) to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive on second, third and fourth gears. This example was originally a US-delivered car, which was later imported to Australia, where it passed compliance in April 2018 before being registered in August of the same year. It has now been with the seller for eight years. The odometer indicates 20,019 miles, though this is not warranted. Build year: 1987 The Callaway Twin Turbo package was a significant performance upgrade over the standard C4 Corvette, including a highly tuned twin-turbo engine setup and reinforced internals, as well as featuring twin NACA ducts in the bonnet for cooling. This example is finished in black with a targa roof panel, over a Saddle leather-trimmed interior, featuring a contrasting black dashboard and transmission tunnel, and embroidered ‘Corvette’ lettering on the headrests. It rides on a set of 16-inch ‘Turbine’ alloy wheels fitted with BFGoodrich G-force Sport tyres. Equipment includes pop-up headlights, a top-tinted windscreen, a digital dashboard, an on-board computer, a Delco-Bose cassette stereo, electrically adjustable seats, electrically operated windows and door mirrors, and automatic air conditioning. This example has been enhanced with window tints and a 3-inch exhaust system. This car is accompanied by a Callaway Certificate of Authenticity. It is supplied with one key. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: soft bolstering on the driver's seat. The last maintenance was in October 2024 at an indicated 19,746 miles, carried out by Ellenbrook Brake & Electrical, which included a service and the replacement of the in-tank fuel pump. The car has reportedly been serviced every 10 to 12 months during the current eight-year ownership, despite very limited use. This C4-generation Chevrolet Corvette Callaway Twin Turbo is a rare high-performance model from a limited production run, blending aggressive American styling with formidable power. Understood to be number 94 of just 164 examples produced in 1987, it would make a notable addition to a marque enthusiast’s collection, and an exciting companion for weekend drives and classic car shows.
