There's a '92 on BAT that does not have a power passenger seat.
There is no control in the console and the seller states passenger seat is not power. I was of the impression that the Z's came with all the options except the dual roof, which had to be specified. ('90's also had an AC choice). Have I been incorrectly thinking all these years? ![]()

Does the seller have the original window sticker? I heard of all the ZR1's like only one had standard AC but who knows for sure. That seat detail is very interesting.

Saw the number of '90's somewhere with manual AC. It was not a big number, but I don't recall exactly what it was. Believe a member here has the last one built with the manual AC. ![]()

Curiosity got the best of me, so I got to digging.
Found this at corvsport.com/1992-c4-corvette/ (quote) The ZR-1 Corvette received additional badges on its front fenders, and all Corvettes (base coupe, convertible and ZR-1 variants) received twin exhaust outlets that were rectangular in shape. For 1992, General Motors made the decision to reduce the formerly standard six-way power passenger seat to an extra-cost option. This decision was short-lived and returned as a standard option in 1993. (end quote) This is quite a curiosity to me, but looks like the power passenger seat may have been an option on the '92's. If this information is correct, I guess we still "learn something everyday"!! ![]()

According to the Genuine Black Book , Antonick:
"Note: During the model year ( 1992) , RPO AC1, was deleted form the ZR-1 package, and the price reduced by $305.00" There you go! Marty |

I would think any ordered without the power passenger seat were done so by mistake. I have seen some strangely optioned vehicles, and most of them were a result of the ordering dealer not paying attention. ![]()

It probably saved 2 pounds or so as well, think of the performance gains

My '92 had a manual passenger seat also.

Perhaps there was a shortage from a supplier.
It was a very popular option in the non ZR-1's. it was restored to RPO ZR-1 in the 93's. Interesting and unusual for sure! Marty |
