Hello, I was hoping to join the ranks of being a ZR-1 owner recently. Unfortunately someone else beat me to it. It's still showing on their site right now so I'm placing the link. It was a '95 #446 for sale for $35,900 with only 2278 miles. I can't tell you how disappointed I am to miss out on this opportunity. I've been watching the ads here for quite awhile and this was the best deal I've ever seen. The Worden Martin dealership did know that it was the third to the last ever built too. Cheers.

That's too bad, but....What were you waiting for if it was the ideal one :confused:. That one did look very nice...

Yeah, it sucks when that happens. There are plenty of good deals on ZR-1's out there though, it is definitely a buyer's market. Keep looking, you will find another one!

Wow that is an unbelievable deal on a late model 1995 yellow with LOW miles too!

I wonder if there are any "issues" with this car... Sometimes that deal is too good to be true and probably is. Might be in this case.

There are plenty of great deals out there! Buy it to enjoy it and not for an investment.

I would say this was the best deal I have ever seen on a 95Z with those kind of miles (especially yellow). No issues with the car, clean carfax, one owner. I was told it was a trade by a local well known businessman. Been for sale for two weeks. I was trying to figure out a way to park this one beside my black car. Pretty hard to go wrong at that price. Some might remember the ad for #447 a few months ago with the picture of the 3 yellow cars being delivered at the corvette museum together.

Guessing that was clint Atkins car, his business parter bought him the car as a gift, these were the last three ZR-1s sold to the public and story was a blurb in Corvette Fever Magazine.

Speaking of yellow did anyone notice the '92 that was in the for sale section from the dealer in Ohio. I watched that one on the dealer website and it went from originally $37.9 last summer to $24.9 just after Christmas. It is gone from their website site so assuming it sold. Pretty good deal there also!!

Thats Clint......net worth was $450M when I knew him, used to bar hop with his son Spencer when I lived in the apartment complex he owned back when I was in my 20s.

Very nice guy, would never know he was loaded.

That would explain we he can afford to trade in a 95Z at probably 10 grand under market. If I remember correctly the guy selling 447 wanted 79K.

I am surprised he sold it...he is a Corvette nut....but he also had Rolls Royce convert....worth $350K........he carried no collision or comp...I said what do you do if you wreck it...he said..."buy another one"

When he started Tower Hobbies he was broke his wife was pregnant and back against the wall, a great story. I remember when he bought some land for a million flipped for 7 million in less than a week. Guy is sharp.
