With a world population of just over 7 billion, we owners each are one in 1.5 million.

I believe the only year that more ZR1's than Z06's were produced was 2010, and by that time, over 25,000 Z06's had already been produced/sold.
If GM had sold more ZR1's than Z06's they would have never needed help from the American tax payer...

That bodes well for mid term value retention. Look at the Ford GT, having made around 4000, they are selling for more than sticker. The key, in my opinion will be if they ever make a Corvette with more horsepower.

That being said, i have owned a FGT and our ZR1 is superior in every way!

On the other hand, all the other Corvettes produced helped keep the cost of our ZR1's within the stratosphere so it's kind of a catch 22.
It's hard to beat the looks of a FGT comparing it to almost anything out there IMO.

It will be 5 years before that happens and they aren't selling for $10-$20k over sticker.

I completely agree. The FGT shares very few parts with the comparatively domestic Mustang. The FGT is a classic race car in modern street form. The ZR1 is more of a muscled up vette turned into a supercar. While I wish the equally low production numbers of the FGT and ZR1 would translate into similar appreciating values, I regretfully believe it will not. I am glad to hear from a guy that has owned both and holds the opinion that the ZR1 is superior overall. Now that is welcome news.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.....I like the looks of my ZR1 better than the FGT! Alot of people disagree with me but to my eye the only car to match the ZR1 is the Gallardo and the Aventador. I have had 2 Gallardos and of course they pale in every way to the ZR1 (Except looks) IMHO!
