My question is: given that I'm driving a C5 Z06, will I be disappointed with a C4 ZR-1? Obviously, I'm not looking at pure performance stats; I'm beyond that, and I'm looking for another Vette experience. However, once the newness wears off, will I be disappointed by the C4 build quality, the rattles and shakes, and everything else that was improved in the C5 platform?
I'm just posting this to generate some discussion. If I really want a C4 ZR-1, I'll buy one.  I just like talking about the cars. |
Drive a few and decide! There are quite a few ZR-1 owners in Houstin and I'm sure they wouldn't mind you driving or being a passenger.
What in particular are you looking for? Have you researched them alot and know about what you are looking for? (color? modifications? year?)
When I looked for a ZR-1 it took almost a year and I was all about color....
There is nothing like a Permagrin in 2nd and 3rd @ 7k RPM!
