Default z07 question

I am just curious how rare it is to find an LT1 with the z07 option and how much you would have to pay to get a car like that. i dont think i have seen one yet that mentioned having it and it would be amazing to have for autocross

Z07 was an optional suspension package available on any LT1 manual or automatic coupe incliding Z51 suspension component and FX3 ajustable suspension...G92 3.07 axle was required with automatic. J55 big brake package was also included with Z07 except in 95 were it was made standard on any coupe and convertible...
Production was:1992 738
1993 824
1994 887
1995 753
Not available in 96, back to Z51 suspension...

thanks!
those are some serious low numbers, i no in the 80s there were a lot of z52 and fair amount of z51 vettes. z07 is almost as limited at zr1's.. also i wish my ruby had any of the fx3/g92/z07 rpo's

I swapped my FE1/FX3 Ruby to a Z07 Spring/Bar setup. That and a few other setup tricks, handles like its on rails. VERY streetable. More to come, car is fast even on the P255/40/17 Dunlap ZII's. I've had guys ride with me that auto-x C5Z06s with Hoosiers and they were amazed how much my C4 with STREET tires sticks and handles. Enough said...

They are hard to find, finding the parts was difficult as well. CorvetteNutz (the vendor on here) was parting a 92 I got them off of.

I've had 2 ZO7's. I didn't pay any more for them than any other Corvette in equal condition. The reason for that is that although the car is rare, there are even few people who know about it. I bought my cars from guys who didn't know what they had, and sold them to guys who didn't care.

If they were more expensive - it would be worth it.
