Wayne Carini and the collectability of ZR-1 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

BOB HDZ · 02-12-2012

Wayne Carini, the Indiana Jones of the collector car world, WAS AT THE CAR SHOW IN NAPLES FLA THIS WEEK END! I ASK HIM ABOUT THE collectability OF ARE CARS. HE SAID, (PUT IT IN THE GARAGE FOR 5 TO 10 YEARS)!!!

Kevin · 02-12-2012

I'd rather drive it

Bill · 02-12-2012

You and me Kevin. Put 400+ miles on mine today. Pushing hard on 150K

it also sounds like a fairly generic response with no real thought put into it

Agreed. Some people have already had one in storage for over 20 years. Life is too short. Who the hell knows if you'll be alive in 10 years!

No kidding. Could probably give the same response about any 20-year-old car right now, doesn't mean any of them are going to be particularly valuable.

So..... Not much in depth thoughts then ? Kind of a generic response.

I am sure Bob was busy chasing bikinis when he wrote this.....but he(Bob) called me and talked to me about it, Wayne apparently thinks in 5-8 years prices are going to take off and thinks its worthy collector.....he said buy now

lets think this out
*Only DOHC car
*Only engine built outside Chevrolet
*Still holds the world endurance record
*No other Corvette surpassed its speed from 1990 to 2001

the ZR1 is back, the B2K option is back we are starting to get a sense of nostalgia about the cars that started the 2nd muscle car revolution. Not to mention that even a 12.8 stock Z can stay up with some of the pig fat cars of today with 500+ hp

Pull a string for me Bob....
