c3's handle worse if not the same as bread truck even the L82 isnt a power monster, plus the C3's get really hot if not insulated. i'd take a c4 any day unless its like a big block 4spd stingray ;)

My 82 I had handled like a dream! Loved driving that on winding roads, but I had C5 wheels on it, so maybe that made a difference. Can't say much about the power of it, only drove that thing a few times before dropping LS1 into it (too bad I sold it to my ex when I left)! And mine was black on black, so yes it was very hot!

my 4x4 tahoe handles better than the 78 silver anny. and it was silver with oyster interior and the heat coming off the engine was still uncomfortable. The suspension was all new also, but with the big 255 15's so it did grab every crevice in the road. my 87 Z51 was a blast to drive even with the underpowered tpi especially after I put in the lowering links in the rear it grabbed the road.
