how safe is a 1990 corvette?

Answer 1

safe enough

Answer 2

Irv S.... the Corvette is not a Poney (correctly spelled Pony) car. That is referring to a Mustang or Camaro

Knock N.... a NHRA roll cage means diddly squat on a street driven vehicle, and a proper cage almost makes the car undrivable on the street. The door bars and a pain (yes even with swing outs) and the rear bars will reduce vision out of the rearview mirror.


cgriffin1972.... that is not your ZR-1. I know the current owner of that vehicle who currently resides in Oregon, and the owners who owned it while in Idaho, I know the car because I helped in the transaction.



As far as the 90 Corvette being safe, it will withstand a hard impact and keep the passengers safe. But as with everything else, you can push the limits. An accident over 100 will not be pretty in a Volvo or a Vette
