Sold my ZR1 today..
Sold my -90 #1642 ZR1 today after almost 15 years and over 100000 own kilometers. Feels little bit strange.. I think it's finally time save money for C5.
Just wanted thanks everyone who has help these years. Withouth you it would have been very hard own car like this.

Re: Sold my ZR1 today..
Congratulations on the sale of your car. When you purchase the C5, you will enjoy it. Different experience, but still a great Corvette!

Re: Sold my ZR1 today..
Sold my 02 Vert in order to buy the ZR-1... So I went the other way that you are going. The C5 is a great Vette but a different animal than the C4, esp a ZR-1. Since you're coming out of a Z...I'd say look for a C5 Z06...Unless you get a first year model at least you will start out with 405hp
 Have fun my Friend!!!

Re: Sold my ZR1 today..
C5Z06's are a nice car & easier to make go fast. The ZR1's are a little more "raw".......it's a hard decision!

Re: Sold my ZR1 today..
Sounds like you have a game plan. My wifes 03 50th is what we use most in the summer. You won't be disappointed in the performance of the C5. Like other of our members had mentioned dont go far you may come back later in life.

Re: Sold my ZR1 today..
Congrats on the sale.....to match the performace you sold, it will take a Z06 to excite you.
I sold my TR Z06 to purchase a ZR-1. Still have a MY Z06 in the garage, still something about that LS motor that excites me everytime I drive it. This morning I took the ZR-1 out for a spin......pound for pound their very close in performance. The two cars are very different in handling though. |
