Default ZR1 for $46,995?!

I'm not looking to buy, NOR is this my car. Just browsing eBay while on break at work and I came across this. High miles yes, but for the price! I'll bet there is still a lot of fun left in this car! Might have been babied all it's life. Never know!

I'd take a car that's been driven over one that just sits

Holy snikes! That's a lot of miles for a ZR1.

Good deal for someone who just wants a ZR1 badly but can't afford a low mileage example.

WOW....I might go look at that if you're not.

But not sure why they say it has a 3LZ interior.

Although the pics look like it has a 3LZ interior. Maybe owner did an upgrade?

Edit:

The more I look at the interior I would say it's a 2LZ. Door panels don't look like a 3LZ.

I'm sure somebody in the know can look at it and tell more than I can.

3ZR is what you mean. Your thinking ZO6. And yes it is a 3ZR trim. Heated seats , did not come with 1ZR trim.

Yeah it is a super deal, even if there is something it needs... which they say it doesn't.

Not what I am looking for or I wouldn't have posted it

The zr1 had structural damage reported in 2013 and yeah the mileage is high. To me, it's worth the extra 15 to 20k for a car with a fraction of the mileage and no structural damage but to each their own. Either way, crazy to see a zr1 at that price

By the way the z06 is a two owner with no accident history. Florida car since day one. Not a bad deal if you don't care about that crazy amount of miles

Yeah not bad, I'm sure the headlights are trash under that tint too. No reason to tint clean black headlights and none of the other lights. To be expected with that type of mileage though

Front splitter can easily be replaced for about 5 to 600.

Thanks. I may go look also.

I look at high mileage a little differently than most people.

My Peterbilt semi I bought with 450,000 miles is still going strong with 1,247,000 miles on it now. Never been in the motor.
