What that says, regardless of those being 1990's is that in a world of low mileage cars, there is a huge difference between 900 miles and 9000 miles.
There are a lot of 500-1500 mile ZR-1s out there. Sub 10k is not that rare.
I agree with Marty on this. A specialized dealer is going to get you the best offer. You may just have to wait awhile for mr. right vs. mr. right now (auction buyer).

Based on model year / mileage for one auction site. I'd have to agree with you. As I stated before BaT hasn't been kind to these cars. However, there also tends to be a feeding friendsy Phenomenon with "under the radar" cars on BaT ( supras for example.)
What the BaT chart doesn't take into consideration is....
1) overall condition
2) were all known service items addressed?
3) documentation?
4) NCRS awards?
Not really an apples to apples comparison w/o taking everything into consideration.
Another unknown would be the european market over the next 12 months, I wonder how many 90's are heading "across the pond" this year.
On a positive note, the BJ sale and the latest BaT sale show there is some strength in the market for C4 ZR-1's. Not that many of the registry owners are going to rush their cars to market because of it. I even plan to buy another (modified) Z once this car finds a new home.
