Corvette C4 Paces the 1995 Indianapolis 500
The Corvette was chosen to pace the Indy 500 for the third time in 1995. 527 replica pace cars were produced with a two-tone purple and white paint scheme and wild ribbon striping.
Changes were few for 1995, mostly because a new generation Corvette was in the works and most of the development resources were oriented towards that effort.
Above: 1995 would be the last year for the ZR-1. Total ZR-1 production for the six model years was 6,939. Below: 1995 Corvette Coupe in Arctic White.
Right: the front fender gills were updated with a more speedy emphasis.
Larger brake rotors which were part of the Z07 adjustable suspension package were on all 1995 'vettes. Since "run flat" tires effectively eliminated the need for a spare tire, buyers had the option of deleting the spare, saving $100.00 along with the associated weight.
