Ahh the famous Buck Rodgers commercial. While the car is sad by todays standards.. IT was one of the best back then.

It may seems ridiculous now, but back in the time of the car when ppl are still playing ping pong on their 6000 dollar computer, it is the best there is.

I think the '84 model actually came out in '82...so it was an early launch as well.

I've always liked that LCD display stuff in the Corvette. Just so excessive. Done because they could do it. And what a wacky ad - funny voice-over, space-suited driver, and a drummer wearing what appears to be some sort of Easter bunny suit.

Nope the 84 debuted in April 83, it was the 83 that was still born and didnt go on sale, so the 82 C3's had to carry the fans over till the first C4.

Depends what you want to use the car for -- the 84 C4 has more luggage space than the 84 Corolla..
