928 in new Motor Trend Flashback
I had a 1984 Corvette the same color as this with cross fire injection and bronze metallic leather interior(disco). The next year it had tuned port which was a big improvement. The 84 with cross fire won this test in 1983.

Very cool. The '85 was one of my favorite years for Corvette since it was the first year of tuned port and did not yet have the 3rd brake light. I'll always remember the first commercial for the C4. I thought those flip over headlights were wild.
Funny to see how these have aged. Both the 928 and Jaguar XJS interiors look dated, but in a classic and elegent way. The Ferrari interiors from the 80s look a bit pieced together and the Vetter interior was a bit too much "Buck Rogers" and definitely too much GM.
