It’s great to have the Z at the top of that list. The C4 ZR-1 seems to be getting more attention lately than anytime in this century.
But this writer has a lot of info in the piece that isn’t nearly as accurate as when you read an article by Hib or others that have lived with the car for 30+ years.
Like the fact that it’s been around for 30+ years, not 25. Or the statement that Lotus did some development work on the suspension. News to me, my 89 L98 Coupe had all that FX3 Gear on it. GM did the “active suspension” Car too.
And what were all these endurance tests he’s talking about? There was one, a big one.

Maybe I’m getting a little nit-picky.
