Let us know how you feel about your ZR1? What made you buy it? For it is one of the most unique Corvettes that GM ever produced.

What made me buy one was my first ride and drive. On my way to Carlisle. My buddy had just bought one, a 1990. On the ride down he said "here, you drive". That was it I was hooked for life. Sold my 40th convertible the next month. One look at the engine didn't hurt either. Since then I have come to appreciate what a great sports car the ZR-1 is. I don't know if GM will ever build another like it.

ZR1 Mom,

Thank you for paying us this honor. For those of you who don't know ZR1 Mom, he is the owner and administrator of the ZR1 Net, one of the most informative and highly recognized sites in the Corvette family. His qualifications and dedication to the ZR1 is recognized by many influential people in the Corvette industry. His knowledge of the ZR1 goes without saying. Here's a link to his site http://zr1.net/

Hopefully, ZR1 Mom, you will stop in and say hello from time to time.

What a great day. Took the car for its first run of the year and Pitt just made the Sweet 16.

I had my brother's 40th conv here for a year and hooked on having a vette. I found my Z on ZR1 and life has not been the same since. The clincher for me was so much car, priced at only 20k. I had been shopping for about a year before I settled on this one and I have not been disappointed.

To me, its a driver to work on nice days, its great on the interstate for just me and wife get-aways, and its a super sports car that is track worthy. Where else can you get all these features in one package?

Great car with a very unique engine, for sure. A very interesting chapter in Corvette history.
