Maybe down the road when these cars start to decrease in numbers, their values will finally increase to a level commensurate with what these cars represent.

On the plus side, by virtue of unfortunately depressed prices on the C4 ZR-1s, many more enthusiasts can afford and enjoy them. I really don't think very many ZR-1 owners bought the cars simply as an investment, although many paid $100,000 for the first '90s. But most of the owners I have known are in it for the fun, the driving experience and the mechanical aspects of the engine and car. . --Bob
