Introduction
 

Hi! I bought one of these beasts this week - 1990, #2288 - and I'm waiting anxiously for delivery Saturday afternoon. I'm new to the world of 'vettes in general, and the ZR-1 I've only really discovered in last few weeks. I fell in love, started shopping, and found this one in amazing condition, with low miles but cared for properly with monthly "exercise" drives to keep the fluids and seals in shape. I don't plan on letting it sit around like it has been all these years, though - it will be daily driven like God intended.

A tiny bit about me - I live in Round Rock, a suburb of Austin, TX .. my kids are excited about this new car, while my wife is merely tolerating my enthusiasm. I work in the video game business and brew beer for fun.

I posted a couple of days ago on this forum with some questions about replacing the tires, and got a lot of quick replies that were very helpful - I can tell already this is a great community!

Welcome aboard the Z-train! Beautiful machine. What a way to break into Vettes.

Buy your lady a really nice purse and take her on a (mild) scenic driving date in the Z.

All the best,

Congratulations and Welcome!!


Looks like a GREAT ZR-1!!!


You need to be warned however that like most Corvettes your Z is prone to making an unintentional and abrupt turn without warning.........................


This typically occurs while your wife is in the car with you and you happen to come into the range of a jewelry store.


Best not to fight it, simply go with it and keep everyone as happy as you are with your new toy!


Again, very nice find!
