CORVETTE SUSPENSION?
Was there a special 'Corvette Suspension" that was on our 3rd gens?? I remember back around 94-1995 i bought my first 3rd gen, it was an 85 roc 305 TPI auto. Of course i didnt know as much as i do now. But the guy kept saying it was a special edition and had Corvette susp. MAN that car handled like nothing i been in before! I could turn on a dime at high speed, NO PROBLEM! It seems like my 89 does not handle as well. Anybody heard of this? Maybe it had some kind of special susp?

That salesman flat out LIED to you & was trying for an increased sale price for his commission.
There was never any factory 3rd gen built with anything that was 'Corevette'.

Re: CORVETTE SUSPENSION?
You could not fit a corvette suspension under our cars, without modification to the chassis, and there was no factory program that did such a thing for camaros.
It could of had upgraded sway bars, springs, shocks, and a wonderbar from a newer thirdgen ws6 car or something, but there was no corvette suspension option.
