Default Why a ZR-1?

Out of all the muslce/exotic sports cars we have to choose from, why did you choose the ZR-1 over all the rest? Was it pure chance? Or was it something you've always wanted and were actively looking to buy at the time you aquired it? Maybe it was a hand me down from a family member. I'm curious to read how the ZR-1 came into your lives.

I would make this a poll but there may be more reasons than I can come up with.

I guess I'll start. For me it was very unexpected. I always kinda new what they were. And the last time I saw one was in California some time around 1990. It was on highway 101 and it was white. It had the little ZR-1 badge under the right rear tail light. And I remember thinking well thats stupid! You mean chevy couldn't of advertised the super vette better than that? Of course I was 20 years old and was looking at it with an untrained eye.

I thought my next muscle car was going to be a 69 ss396 chevelle or a camaro. Maybe a 68 R/T 440 mganum charger. Something along those lines. But the thought of owning a ZR-1 never crossed my mind.

What about you guys?
