Not sure if you have seen this already. Interesting read anyway: Hagarty on C4

I'll try to say this as nicely as possible. Take what you read from Hagerty with a grain of salt.

I personally like the '89. 6 speed, disco dash, pre air bag interior, round tail lights. From the design intent of Jerry Palmer in combination with goals of the ZR1 group, the DR1 is the ultimate C4. A B2K with Callaway bodywork is the only other contender for the era. George.

Anyways, the article is not bad. It reads to me like its intended audience is my generation or younger. Feels like its trying to raise awareness that getting into a C4 is really not expensive and there is some selection as far as features and performance go. Not sure about their outreach though, seems like anybody interested in reading that article will already be in the know. |

I think that every article that is published by media with good reach and that has a positive sentiment about the C4 counts.
And thinking about Hagerty also must include what Cammisa does. Just think about his congenial video Cadillac C5 Black Wing vs M5 Competition vs Model S Plaid. Not to mention the ZR-1 video he did - well known to most of us. Their media efforts are good and for sure they reach a "vulnerable" crowd of guys who are not too much aware of a C4's benefits and might become infected. So... I hope they stay on the topic and maybe develop even more passion for the C4.
