Default Re: 88 ZR1 EX5023 Thread

Wow, think about how rare this car is.....and then think about how many other models of cars had this type of effort put into it, and what the impact was to the auto industry?

The only other program that I can think of is the effort by Ford with the GT40, and but not for the ZR-1, does Ferrari build the F40? The ZR-1 bested the Ferrari Testarossa, Lamborghini Countach, and the Porsche 911/928S4.

The LT-5 was hiccup in the supercar world that upped the ante and I am not sure the American performance cars we have today would be here without the LT-5 program. Keep in mind the genesis of program really started in the mid 80s.

Great to see, I will definately be down to Indiana to check this out, great stuff!
