I agree with all of the above. I love the headlights and clam-shell. I love the cockpit type feel inside, especially with the glass roof. I like how everything is in the right spot, all controls are easy to reach and use without taking your eyes off the road. I especially love the rear end and how the exhaust and suspension components are exposed...really makes it look pissed off.
This just about put me on the floor because it is so true

It may not resonate with everyone, but the fact that I can pull up to ANY gas pump, on ANY side, and fill it up, just makes my day!
A trunk would be nice as mine's a convertible, as with the top down theres NO room for anything else, BUT I didn't buy it to haul a bunch of stuff and can make amends if necessary.
P.S. The clamshell hood, pop-up lights (cannot stand the clear covered ones like the C6s have), feel old school, and I prefer them also.

The fact that you can never clone a ZR-1.
I had a C6 owner come and check mine out (by just looking) and saying you can never tell, they can add body kits to a car and badges and call it what ever. He had seen a C6 Z06 convertible and was on the look out for fakes. When I told him you couldn't clone a ZR-1 he just shook his head and walked off like I didn't have a clue. lol
