Chevrolet decided that 1996 would mark the last year of production for the C4 body style. As we know, when the C3 Generation was over, GM offered a sporty 1982 Collector Edition, with a L-83 Cross Fire Injection Motor, to mark the end of the C3's existence. Well, GM replayed history by offering a 96 Collector Edition, before the C5 was introduced. Will there be a 2003 50th Anniversary Collector Edition before the new C6?

To commemorate the C4, Chevy offered a 'Collector Edition' option that featured 
Sebring Silver paint, matching painted 5-spoke wheels, special 'Collector Edition' 
exterior emblems and an interior package unique to the CE. Only three interior colors were offered. They include black, red and gray. All three interior colors have contrasting embroidery in the seats.
