They aren't selling, most ZR-1 and non ZR-1 C4s are priced entirely too high. It's a buyers market, but you have to keep an eye out for a truly good deal. There are a decent amount of the same C4s sitting around here on lots year after year.

They are cost effective to own in stock form, but aren't cost effective to modify at all. They aren't cost effective to repair or rebuild either.

If you want cost effective you buy a high mileage or blown C5, pull the engine and drop in a low mileage salvage engine.

The money I'll have into rebuilding the LT5 I'm working on, to stock form, would buy me a mid mileage LS3.
