Vehicle Description
This is a real-deal, numbers-matching, first-year C4 Chevrolet
Corvette ZR-1. And when a survivor-grade, full-red 375 hp coupe is
offered for such an affordable price, well then, you know this deal
might not be around long enough for you to finish reading the
details.
The Corvette has always been America's version of the European
sports car, but the ZR-1 truly merged this attitude. It went to
finishing school with the racing masters at Lotus in England, and
you could instantly tell this was a special car. Back in 1990, the
convex rear end and square-ish quad taillights were exclusive to
the "King of the Hill." And because this was the first year for the
ultimate Corvette (it cost nearly double of the standard car) its
collect-ability has been firmly established. That's why it has been
treated with respect all its life, and the factory original red
still retains a bright gloss and shine. Plus, the panel fit and
crisp details instantly tell you this has led the kind of
garage-kept life you would have given it had you owned this ZR-1
from day one. In fact, the only non-standard piece we can identify
is the set of Grand Sport wheels. But we can understand how an
aggressive machine like this deserves the upgraded alloys.
The factory-correct red interior fantastically matches the red
exterior. But you can tell from its stellar condition that it
didn't spend too much time with targa roof out to showcase this
very aggressive total package. The ZR-1 is meant to be a true
driver's car, that's why the leather sports seats power adjust to
your perfect position; the gauges are the perfect mix of analog and
digital; and the shifter perfectly falls into your right hand. More
than just the ultimate sports car, this is also a terrific luxury
coddler. That's because this classic comes loaded with feature like
power windows, power locks, alarm system, cruise control,
provisions for air conditioning, and an AM/FM/CD/cassette Bose
stereo. Because this is a modern classic, there are also great
modern safety features like a driver airbag and anti-lock
brakes.
The LT5 engine still knows how to draw a crowd today. So when you
lift whole front end to show off that unique and tidy setup, you'll
love being able to tell people it's the original motor. With the
multi-valve setup developed by Lotus, and built by the sturdy
masters at Mercury Marine, this was a unique motor the likes of
which we might never see again. This 5.7-liter 32-valve V8 was
rated at 375 hp, and it loves to pull hard through all six speeds.
A supercar-level motor like this deserves the upgraded adjustable
suspension that was part of the ZR-1 package. Plus, the powerful
four-wheel disc brakes don't seem to mind the car's 180 mph
capabilities. The wide Nitto Extreme ZR tires are a great
investment in properly capping off this handling package.
A well-preserved icon like this also comes with all the right
paperwork. It includes the original window sticker, owner's manual,
warranty card, and even the original full promotional literature
package in the original box! Oh yeah, this is the collectable ZR-1
with all the right features to keep it admired well into the
future. So when this is all offered for such an affordable price,
you know you need to hurry to take this supercar home. Call
now!
