Just bought 1991 ZR1
I was in the market for a zr1 or c5 z06... the z06 was still a little spendy in my area... i found a very nice 60k miles ZR1
red with black interior, t tops. very badass...
i went into this custom car dealership, they deal with a lot of high end cars and muscle cars... they wanted $18,900 for it, marked down from $21,000 (this place is known to mark up cars).
I told him i had $15k cash, they said i might be able to finance the rest with them... so i went out to look at it, messed around a little, and the salesman came out and said you buy it now for $15k. you have 10 mins to decide (they were closing in 10mins).
i took it for a little jaunt down the street and back, and said hell yes. hard a hard time convincing the old lady but i got er done.
I was pleasently suprised on how well this thing pulled. i must say its more than i expected.
Ive wanted a corvette all my life, and now i finally have one.
ive listened to George Jones - The One I Loved Back Then (The Corvette Song) about 10 times in a row

I was very excited on the test drive, i was like, holy ****, this car is no joke. they were serious when they built this.
too bad about those pesky c5 z06 and c6 z06. but at least they made it so i can get my zr1 at a decent price

The ZR1 is the real-deal, bro. If you maintain it, from what I can tell, it'll last you a long long time. I can't possibly see you regretting your decision. Sure, the C5 and C6 platforms are amazing cars, but don't let anyone tell you that the C4 isn't a bloody awesome car, too. We've only got the stock L98 in ours, and it's plenty for my old age to enjoy fully and completely....
