Default Re: Need a ZR1 expert opinion near Southern California

I may consider a 1990 but i prefer the newer nose. I would like to get one with lower mileage but I can't find any reasonably priced. This is the best one I found. I read some of you guys saw that the black one in Virginia but it was in bad shape at a dealership. I wouldn't mind buying one from a member but there was only high mileage ones.

Pics are not all that clear or high def, but looks stock, ad says heated seats, side air bags, sunroof, ??? Be patient and look, lots of nice cars for 20, find 1 with documentation of service

On the plus side, the ad does note that it's the "perfect first car". Yep, a 400hp Corvette is exactly what I want to get for MY 16-year old son! HA!

It appears to be in very good condition, a little hard to assess fine details due to the resolution of the photos.

For comparison, I wanted to provide you a link to a car I seriously considered for a couple of days, it’s in Illinois. The Polo Green ’91 in the link has about 42,000 miles on it and they are asking $19,995. It has accumulated more than double the mileage of the red Z you are looking at. For 20K, the red Z seems to be one heck of a deal if you compare it against the Polo Z in the link.

I thought about getting the Polo Z to restore it, if you go through the images, it needs quite a bit of work, the seats, the carpet, even the LCD display have issues; but for $19,995, I decided it’s overpriced. I’m in the looking mode at the moment, hope to find one locally here in Columbus and have a forum member look it over with me.

Good luck with your decision, hope you get the car of your dreams.
