No. Aaron sold his car, the new owner is taking delivery Friday April 20th. Wait a minute! I must be way out of the loop here. Aaron sold the Callaway supernatural that he traded his pristine low mile white Z for already? Is that true?:dontknow: Im gonna text him right now.

[ammrpm]

Yes, the rumor is true... I am selling my ZR1. No plans for anything else at the moment.

[oricale]

$28,000+premiums...$31,000

Yes, the rumor is true... I am selling my ZR1. No plans for anything else at the moment. Aaron just out of curiosity, Why?

I just watched it. Mixed emotions. Thought it would bring more, but I believe it had like 33K miles. Still undervalued! Someday people will realize what a performance value these cars are!!

[USAFPILOT]

Not sure where that puts a 54,000 mile Black 94ZR-1 in Houston. But I would guess the low 20's. Good thing I don't want to sell it.

And you know what Ryan it really wouldn't be worth it to sell anyway. Its not going to sell for what you bought it for. And they are just to much damn fun to drive to put them out to pasture.

I think since they are starting to show up at these auctions more often the price will begin to climb. It is bizarre that a 71 Mustang brings more money. I think all I want to do with mine is park a 2008 Viper next to it in a few years. I figure the 2013 model should drive down the price now. Nothing like a 600HP Convertible.

If its one with a 351 Cleveland then that's sad. But if it was a 428 Mach 1 then that's a different story. But since I work for a living I missed the auction all together.

it was the Boss 351. I'm not buying it if collectors think that car performs like a Boss 302. Those were the biggest heaviest mustangs ever made. Couldn't you get a 429ci Cobra Jet in the 70's (not the Boss429 which was gone in 70).

The one to have is the 1968 1/2 428 super cobra jet mustang. 400hp stock with an automatic. Very rare. Came in fastback or coupe. Big big bucks for those cars now.

The 390 is the Car that Steve McQueen drove in "Bullet". Very Rare very limited numbers, That or a Shelby KR500. Can anyone barrow me a couple hundred thousand?

I often think why didnt they use the 428 Sci. It had way more hp. Because if you read about that car chase they said that the 440 RT charger would run off and leave the 390. The 390the had lots of torque but was stale on the drag strip. 428 was the king of the drag strip. And are even more rare than the shelbys.

Doesn't make any sense to me at all. Unfortunately, I work for a living so I probably will never be able to afford an Original 396 Roadster or a 428SCJ Fastback Mustang. But, I am realistic so I dont invest heavily in the lotto and I have no family that is going to leave me any kind of inheritance.

Unfortunately that's never gonna be in my budget. So I just had to settle on a ZR-1. Its what I could afford at the time. Im pretty happy with my choice.

[72ZR1]

sold for $28000.
