Hi Chris--Welcome to the FBI group and let me say you will really enjoy this car. It's a beauty. Let me also suggest another thing: Even if you like to work on your own cars, get the car an appointment with Marc Haibeck in Addison (http://www.zr1specialist.com or 630-458-8427) and have him go through the car and make recommendations on what needs to be done to it. That is what I did when I bought both my '93 and '95. He found and corrected things that I never would have even thought of. Also changed all the fluids, serp belt, etc. These later cars didn't need any injector work but it is possible that yours might. Just a thought. In any event you should certainly get over a meet him; he's a real good guy and one of the most knowledgeable people on ZR-1s, as it is all he does. Best of luck with your new ZR-1. --Bob

Bob, thanks for the sound advice. On top of the ZR-1 factor, this is also my first C4 (or any corvette for that matter!). Given that fact, its difficult to know what is "normal" for these cars. It would be great to have Marc give the car a once over so I have a better to The previous owner has already replaced all of the injectors, so I should not have to tackle that issue. -Chris

Absolutely beautiful car! Welcome to the fold.

If you are in the Chicagoland - Joliet area Morris Cruise Nights start the second Saturdays of June - October. We can save you a spot.
