Congratulations. The C6 ZR1 is a fantastic performer. Looks like you scored a basically brand new Z. Enjoy it.

Nice find!

If I couldn’t find a Gen V I was going to end up back in a C6 and it would have been a Z like yours. Beautiful car. Congrats!

Still like the style of the C6 way better than the 7 , and though I am starting to get a little more used to it, even the C8. Beautiful Beast my friend!

Great car and the best color too.

I was thinking of adding this same car to my garage.

But I drove a Porsche GT 3 on the track down in Vegas last month. I think I’m hooked.

I just hope if I do get a Porsche that I don’t have to start wearing one of those funny hats and start smoking a pipe.lol

I dig it. There was one for sale here in Lakeland, FL a few years back, same combo, for I think $25k with around 30k miles.

The LT5 is a cool engine, no doubt, but likes to rev. Not that it’s gutless down low but it’s not like the V10 engine. ZF6 is a smooth transmission but the cars like 4.10 gears.

I was able to play with one of those C6-ZR1 on the track last summer. It really impressed me, extremely easy to drive, comfortable, and quick! Nice pickup

Sold my 94 ZR-1 for a GenV and haven’t looked back. Expected values to climb, they never did.

C6 ZR1 would be on my short list if I ever had to replace my Viper.

Badass in stock form, and pretty easy to mod from what I’ve seen.

It Really is! Still smells like a new car inside!

Thanks! I agree, besides the Blue, this was my favorite color and couldn’t pass it up with the mileage and condition.

Agreed! I have also heard from some very serious car enthusiast it’s the best car GM has ever built…….that may be up for debate lol.

I agree, the C6 will still be my favorite Corvette(besides the 60’s). Last real corvette 🙂

Also one of my all time favorites. I got rid of a FFR Cobra year ago to get into my GTS and would like to add another at some point.

It was selling for $25k, no way it was a C6 ZR1. With 30k miles that’s still a low 60’s car.

C6’s bottomed out about 4-5 years ago, been holding steady and I think are on the rise now.

Agreed! I’ve seen guys making well over 700whp with not too many mods. Don’t think I’ll go that route, but nice knowing I can.

Haven’t been on here in a little while. Added a new addition to the stable. Always loved and admired these cars and came across the right one. It’s a 2010 Corvette ZR1 w/only 7k original miles. I am now the 2nd owner of this car, it is as perfect as you can find. Love my Viper, won’t ever part ways with it, but this ZR1 is an incredible machine! The amount of power and torq this LS9 generates is nothing short of amazing and addicting!! :dancingman:

Happy New Year Everyone!
