A while ago, over on CF we had a thread to try to identify all the Quasar Blue ZR-1's. Since I don't go to that forum much anymore, I decided to move that thread here.

dbriana and I have gotten data on almost half of the 121 Quasar Blue's made. Quasar Blue Metallic was available from 1990 to 1993.

1990: 19 made, 4 identified with serial number and owner
1991: 80 made, 37 identified
1992: 15 made, 5 identified
1993: 7 made, 5 identified

If anyone has or knows of a Quasar Blue ZR-1 post here or PM me.

There were only 502 cars built in 92, are you sure about the 508?

Good point! Obviously there is a mistake. Thanks for the catch. Jim

I would be willing to bet it is a 1991, since 507 was quasar and there seems to many grouped together in my list, and it being saddle, since they went to light beige in 92.

You might be right. I have asked my source for clarification/more info.

Jim,

In response to a question to the NCM about color combinations, I received an email from Betty Hardison, Resource Center Coordinator. She says they're in the process of scanning all their build sheets into a database and to "check back' in October / November". Hopefully, we'll finally have a definitive resource for determining all the ZR-1 color combinations, build-dates, etc.

FYI, my '92 color combo list is at 122 and holding.

I have heard the same thing about NCM getting all the build data computerized. It will be a valuable resource.

I didn't get a firm answer when I asked about how "users" could accress the data, so we will have to wait and see.

I have to admit that the "treasure hunt" for this info has been fun. When they just hand me a list of all the ZR-1's by color and VIN, it will be over. Oh well, more time to go drive the Z!
