Perhaps the most eagerly-awaited Corvette of the modern era, the C7
ZR1 was introduced in 2019 as the fastest and most powerful
production Corvette of all time. It featured a supercharged
6.2-liter LT5 V8 producing a staggering 755 horsepower and 715
lb-ft of torque, as well as a bleeding-edge aerodynamics package
estimated to generate 950 pounds of downforce when equipped with
the optional "high wing." The impressive power was largely courtesy
of a supercharger with 52 percent more displacement than that of
the Z06, nestled under a special carbon-fiber "halo" hood for extra
headroom. The result was a truly fearsome track monster that set a
lap record of 2:37.25 at Virginia International Raceway - just 2.35
shy of the million-dollar McLaren Senna. The now-discontinued LT5,
made exclusively for the C7 ZR1, remains the most powerful engine
ever offered in a Corvette, making it the ultimate iteration of the
front-engine formula before its discontinuation in 2019.
Adding to its exclusivity, this example is one of only 512 ZR1
Convertibles built, representing approximately 1.5 percent of C7s
during its final year of production. The Convertible variant of the
most powerful Corvette ever produced injects some exhilarating
open-air fun into the ZR1's track-focused performance, while also
allowing the driver to fully immerse themselves in the V8's
visceral burble and supercharger whine. Highly optioned, this ZR1
left the Bowling Green assembly line with an impressive original
sticker price of $148,010. The discerning original owner specified
this ZR1 with the coveted ZTK Track Performance Package - a $2,995
option that elevates the ZR1's already impressive capabilities via
a stanchion-mounted adjustable carbon fiber high wing, a front
splitter with removable carbon-fiber end caps, and performance
suspension with Magnetic Ride Control.
Visually, this ZR1 is a feast for the eyes, courtesy of the ZR1
Sebring Orange Design Package - a $6,955 option that bestows the
ZR1 with Sebring Orange Metallic paintwork, perfectly complemented
by orange-painted brake calipers and orange-accented
ground-effects. This aggressive color scheme was further enhanced
by the current owner with a custom color-matched rear bumper cover
as well as color-matched 19-inch front and 20-inch rear wheels. The
interior is equally impressive, featuring Jet Black seating
surfaces with suede microfiber inserts and eye-catching orange
custom stitching. The Competition Sport Bucket seats provide
excellent support during spirited driving, while orange seatbelts,
ZR1 logo floormats, and bronze-tinted aluminum interior accents
complete the bespoke cabin.
This ZR1 Convertible represents a rare opportunity to acquire and
experience the culmination of over six decades of front-engine
Corvette evolution. Its open-top configuration adds an intoxicating
dimension to the driving experience, allowing the next fortunate
owner to be fully immersed in the car's spine-tingling exhaust
note. With its striking specification and only 5,290 miles traveled
since new, this 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Convertible stands as a
fitting swan song to the front-engine Corvette lineage.
