I just looked at production no's,and realized that the 1 year 93 Z25 optioned Ruby almost outsold 6 years of ZR-1 production total.

6,749 Rubies 1year 6,939 ZR-1's.6 years

Rubies totalled 31% of 93 production

The 88 35th anniversary option totalled only 9% by comparison.

The much desired 96 Collector's Edition totalled 25% of production.

I don't think any Corvette "special" option was as popular as the 93 Ruby.
Does anyone have information to change this assumption ?????
What I am saying to POTENTIAL SELLERS is don't undersell your car,it is possibly the most desirable C-4 Corvette in terms of people who love the look.
You probably have a bigger market for your 93 Ruby than any other C-4 produced.More buyers more demand higher value.:w
YOUR thoughts ????:beer

My thought would be if there are that many of them, then they are not that hard to find, and therefore not worth all that much more, in terms of resale value. Perhaps a little more or less than the option package cost when they were new.


I hope I'm wrong.


But I think I did pretty well when I purchased mine. As long as I can keep in the shape it is in, or better, I doubt I will lose money when I sell it, unless I start driving the pistola out of it. Or there is no more gasoline in the world...

It is the most beautiful color ever sprayed on a Corvette though, IMO.

I guess we'll know in 10 years when the hit 25 years old. FWIW... the Pace Car and Silver Anniversary are fairly sought after even after all these years.

Then again, the controversy over legitimate Pace Cars and spray-booth SA's might have fueled the speculation market. Documentation wasn't so good about either car when it came to production. GM did some goofy things like put a trim tag on a car and then give it a different colored interior than it coded for (I know- I had one of those!) back in the late seventies.

The 35th Anny cars have far better documentation than previous special edition cars. We'll see how history treats them!
