When did you buy your ZR-1 - Page 4 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

I still have my first vette (it's a 2008 though, so no biggie). Shortly after, a c4 was purchased as a beater so I wouldn't put mileage on the c6. I ended up liking that a lot more than I thought I would. I sold that to get my 91 zr which is my 3rd vette now.

bought my 90 in 2003 with 50 k miles on her she now has 195k miles . bought my 92 callaway 475 supernatural in07 with 32k miles on her she just turned 155k miles on her . love them both.

My current car I think it was 2004 or 2005. At the time of purchase it brought me to three 1990 ZR-1s at once.
Oh I wish I had kept my first one 90 #354.

I feel like a geezer, Bought it in 1994.

It seems like the most were bought just before the recession hit 2007, and just last year. Makes sense.

Purchased my 92 in July of 2012 from a great couple in CT. Watched it online for almost a year and saw it for the first time in March 2012 after taking my son to UCONN. Flew to Hartford and drove it home sputtering with 7 bad injectors. Prayed all the way down the NJ Turnpike but got her home in one piece. Wazoo made it all better!

My '91 has been in the family since '93. My dad bought it in 1993 and drove it sparingly.

I learned how to drive stick on it when I turned 16, and my folks gifted the car to me when I graduated college.

It's been a great car and now has seen three generations of my family in it, as now my daughter goes for cruises with me just as I did with my dad.

Seems like yours would then fit into the "bought in 1993" category.

I bought the 90 in summer of 89 and got it late 89
