Following is a post on CF from a guy in Italy who originally ask if the
comments he heard about problems with ZR-1 ~45000 miles
were true or false. I thought you all would find this interesting...
..."Thank's for all the answers...i'm very happy to listen that my lt5 is longer durable!!! This notice is born accidentally during a discussion for an lt5 sales. A person said that at the technical meeting ncrs they have explain that the motors lt5 are delicate and that to 45000 miles they have serious problems.
I have read the records of lt5 and i'm very happy for that!!!
So, now, after your answer i'm very happy to have a zr1 in my garage with only 18000miles!!
I don't know how many Zr1 there are in Italy, i only know that are few.
Bye, Max"
I checked ZR-1netregistry to see how many ZR-1s were listed with
"100,000 miles on original motor or after a rebuild" Only about 30 were listed and the last one posted was in early 2008.
I think this is grossly understated. If you have a ZR-1 with 100K miles on the original motor or on a rebuilt one how about taking a couple minutes and adding your car to our 100,000 Mile Club list...if any of you can tell us how to add a name to this list?

Thanks for helping.
This list, when updated, should be an impressive testimonial of how great our ZR-1's LT5 motors really are vs those other supposedly bullet proof motors.

Cool, I also would love to see that list updated. Not only with new cars, but the ones on there are probably at some impressively higher mileage by now.

Sold mine this last week with 146k on it passed Ca. smog with 50% of allowable emissions and runs hard to 7k like it always has, doesnt smoke, etc.

Anyone who doesnt drive these because they are afraid of wearing them out or breaking them needs their head checked.

If you own a ZR-1 with 100,000 miles or more please send me an email at: zr1net@zr1.net with the following info:

Owners Name
Mileage
Year
Color
And if you are the original owner or not.

Thanks!

Unfortunately the 100000 Mile Club member list does not include VIN #: just:
Owner's name, mileage, year, color, original owner (yes/no), and some misc. info.
To get an answer to your quustion you need the name(s) of owner(s) to see if they ever submitted them.
