Another Cheap 90’ on Ebay - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Ccmano · 11-16-2017

Reminds me of my first Z. 38k miles generally nice condition, the usual problems. $13,750.

Looks like the owner just gave up on it. Someone will get a good deal. Located in Texas. I am not affiliated.

Looks like a decent Polo Green on tan

doesn't look like it got any bites, nice car at a good price (possibly), Market indicator or seasonal depression?

Ccmano · 11-21-2017

Seasonal depression plus admittance of several unresolved issues. Unless you know what we know about these cars I suspect the average uninitiated buyer will stay away.

If I hadn't just picked one up to tinker with through the winter I might take a look.
Wonder if the color also might have something to do with it? We used to call green the "No Sale" color and generally had to discount them. Of course they were not ZR1's.

I saw this the day it was listed, but it's about 1 hour north of Houston near Lake Livingston which I *think* had water problems during Harvey. Can't confirm that though, I'm not familiar enough with Texas to decipher all the googling I did.

I personally love the green, it's the darker one that they replaced later. Miles look good, and as someone else said the 'usual problems'. My wife even gave me the thumbs up, but I have no more garage space and I have a white 92 LT1 that needs some love to get back on the road already.....

Hope this one goes to a good home.

I agree that color might have been a factor, green is not for everyone but in the pics it looks lovely. its what is not mentioned (the windshield Screams delamination) along with the unknown stated issues (what is causing that intermittent stutter) that kills one like this for me. if it was local, maybe. but being unable to trust it for a fly in drive home vacation trip makes it a big nope at any price.

I'm here to tell you as a Polo green owner, it may not be for everyone. But combined with the saddle interior ( just like my 91 ) gives it a classy clean look.... And when you shine them up, it gives the car a multi-color look. It just looks like this 90 has sat outside in the Texas climate and needs some TLC......someone needs to rescue her, because we all know the green Z's are the fastest lol

its funny how that seems to work, I often wonder what happens when you own more than one color, must cause terrible self crisis

The car was in Coldspring, that area did not flood that I am aware of, I blast around those roads on the weekend. i was tempted by that car, but too many cars in the stable for now. Personally Polo Green is my favorite Vette color, that and black rose.
