Re: New ZR_1 owner
Welcome to the Brotherhood of the Beast!
You've come to the right place. There's more detailed knowlege of the ZR1 here than any where else. Post Pics & details as soon as you can. To answer your question, yes indeed, ZR1's are all that AND a bag of chips. There is no other car like them. Get in it and 'Drive it like you stole it" You will learn "PERMA-GRIN". Again, congrats on your purchase. TomC '90ZR1 #792

Re: New ZR_1 owner
thanks for the replies. i cannot wait for it to get here, a little about it: the car is a one owner, 132,000 miles, black on black with chrome rims, came with the complete zr-1 buyers kit, all service records, and carfax/nada checks good. the suspense is killing me, i found it online of all places, and for an awesome price, i wish i could have test drove it first but i am having an independent inspection done there. btw any az. members?

guys & gals are amazing...info..and just everyday support... none finer...post pics of your car through..photobucket or another online.. provider...as we like to see whatcha got.. a couple of warnings... 1. pressing down hard on the gas pedal..may cause a rush of adrenaline...along with a perpetual smile and a roar like no other...along with the smell of burned rubber....do not be alarmed as this goes hand in hand with the ownership of the "Beast" 2. repeat after me....i will not modify this car... |
