If you are thinking that you should buy this ultra low mile car, put it in your collection and don't worry about driving it.

Mike,
Dennis just nailed it. If this is a buy for the low miles to keep in a collection then doing a few things (fluids, plugs etc) would be it. As it sits with that kind of mileage that would be the best thing. Low mileage cars get more rare all the time. A low mileage car is very unlikely to have engine damage.
If you intend to drive the car and want it to remain worth max $ (should you want to sell it later) then I would not do mods that are hard to undo. It's rare that a heavily modified and customed ZR-1 will retain it's value well. (that must be clarified to be obviously my opinion)
If max speed and performance is the goal and resale value is of no or less concern then get out your check book and have fun. The $ is the lesser concern.
In any case weigh carefully any advice you get to modify the car until you fully get the pros and cons.
Most ZR-1s out there, being as old as they are now, have been maintained
and those that have been ripped up will be fairly easy to spot.
Good luck with which ever car you pick.
