Man, that's a good looking car! I will one day get a 09 . How is the maintenance on it? I really don't know (or have even ridden in a later ZR1) are you able to wrench it yourself or is a full size lift just a plain "must have"? Is there room in the engine bay to work? Do you have to send out to shop/dealer much for work/maint ? How is the clear engine cover holding up?

C6s in general are pretty reliable, and the ZR1s probably more so. They also take really well to "light" mods. Since they are forced induction, all you really need is a pulley change and tune to gain some nice power, beyond that ported blower snout, air intake and flex fuel (E85) will give nice gains. For <$5K you can take a stock C6 ZR1 and make 650-700wheel very easily.
