For Sale: 1990 Chevrolet Corvette in Newfield, New Jersey

Vehicle Description

This 1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 is an exceptionally rare and highly collectible example of the legendary "King of the Hill"-a true time-capsule C4 that has been preserved to an extraordinary standard. With only 1,336 original miles since new, this ZR-1 remains in pristine, all-original condition and stands as one of the finest early-production LT5 ZR-1s to surface in years. It has lived its entire life inside a climate-controlled private Corvette collection, retained by its original owner from new, and it carries a perfect Carfax confirming its lifelong authenticity and preservation.

Everything about this ZR-1 reflects the exclusivity and engineering excellence that made the model world-famous. Under the hood is the hand-built 5.7L LT5 DOHC 32-valve V8, the exotic all-aluminum powerplant developed with Lotus and assembled by Mercury Marine. With its high-revving character, advanced design, and effortless delivery of power, the LT5 remains one of the most revered engines ever installed in a Corvette. It is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, and the full ZR-1 Special Performance Package elevates it far beyond the standard C4's capabilities with Selective Ride & Handling, a heavy-duty brake system, unique wide-body rear quarters, and extra-wide wheels wrapped in P315/35ZR17 tires. Even the specific ZR-1 side panels remain as crisp and original as when the car left Bowling Green.

This ZR-1 features a striking and iconic color combination: a White exterior over Red adjustable leather sport seats, both power-adjustable and showing virtually no wear. The cabin retains its original Delco Bose Gold Series sound system, electronic climate control, and all factory equipment in showroom condition. The car also includes the desirable roof package, supplying both the glass top and body-color top, exactly as delivered new.

As a true collector-grade car, this ZR-1 comes with a remarkable level of documentation. Included are the original window stickers, dealer brochure, dealer paperwork, and other items that seldom remain with cars of this era. The car still rides on its original date-coded tires, further emphasizing its untouched, museum-quality preservation. A brand-new battery has just been installed, but otherwise the car remains exactly as Chevrolet built it. Every inch of the car confirms its authenticity-all original, no paint work, no modifications, and verified by its perfect Carfax.

This 1990 ZR-1 is not just a low-mile Corvette-it is an extremely special early production ZR-1, preserved in a way that very few examples ever were. Its mileage, originality, one-owner history, documentation, and overall condition place it firmly among the top tier of surviving LT5 ZR-1s. For the serious collector or Corvette enthusiast, this is a rare opportunity to acquire an investment-grade, first-year ZR-1 that looks and feels as though it just left the showroom floor.
