New Member and Owner of a 1990 ZR-1
Good evening all,
I have recently purchased a 1990 ZR-1 Corvette. I have always wanted one and finally picked up what I thought was a good buy. It's not even here yet, but is supposed to be delivered tomorrow  I'll be honest, I'm not sure what I am doing with the car. I'd love to keep it, but to be honest it was an impulse purchase and with my wife and I having a 3 month old daughter, not the smartest thing I have done recently. I do have an understanding wife who is into vehicles as well. Once I get it I will post a few pictures. I'm sure I'll need advice no matter what direction I go. Thanks again and I look forward to meeting all of you. Tony |

Re: New Member and Owner of a 1990 ZR-1
Hello Tony and welcome to the forum.
 Owning a ZR-1 is not necessarily for practical reasons, but once you experience it on the open road, you will have little doubt as to whether you made the right choice or not.
