Default ZR-1s with white interior

I have never seen any of these for sale or even pictures. Do mainly collectors have them?. I know 11 were made in 93, and two were yellow.

Does anyone own, previously own or know of white interior cars and what the exterior color is, since white was available with every color in 92 and 93. Same for blue interior in 90 and 91. Just curios, thanks.

Bright Aqua with white is a very nice combination... seen many Lt1's but have not seen a ZR-1 in that combination.

I have seen a red 93 with a white interior. This car was for sale at Carlisle last summer and I think it was there the year before. If I remember correctly, the dealer was from GA.

I have a few pics of a white on white ZR-1 that I saw at the C4 Gathering in Bowling Green this year. Keep an eye out in either Corvette Fever of Vette magazine for this car. One of the magazines did a photo shoot on this car at the Gathering. The guy who owns it said there were 11 white on whites made between 1992-1993.
I have white interior on mine, but, it's not a ZR-1. I did find a Torch Red ZR-1 with white leather a couple of years ago in Virginia. The dealer said the car was 1 of 2 made. Car had 6,000 miles and they were asking $45,000. I couldn't afford it at the time or I would own it today.
Just curious, how you found out that there were only 11 ZR-1's made with white interior in 1993. I ask because I would like to know how many are out there like mine, but there are know exact numbers from GM.
Pics of white car is a ZR-1, pics of red car is a LT-1
Enjoy the pics
Hope this helps

We use to own one of the Yellow/White 93's. I will have to see if I can find any pictures of it. It came from Ecklers Chev. in Titusville, Florida. That dealership no longer exists.

That car / dealer was from VA

There is also a 1992 red/white Z from VA as well

VA gets all the good stuff - right RKreigh (with his 4 ZR1's)

The Red on White 1992 ZR-1 was at the C4 Gathering in Bowling Green this year. The owner says it is the ONLY Red on White in 1992.

That White interior definitely looks different. Just can't help thinking how hard it would be to keep clean. I mean any other color leather could hide most blems, but white will show "everything"

I got the 11 from corvette action center site.
Not sure about red/white 1993, but toatl for 1993 there were 622 white leather sport seats minus the 11 for the ZR-1 so 611 like yours, 766 base white leather seats.

While I am not doubting that the owner told you his car was the only one, I am fairly certain the guy in VA has a 1992 as well.

I am 99% certain it is not a 1993

His car has Dymags on it in silver and wears florida tags

RKreigh could possibly verify the year - but it isn't a big deal

man I WISH I still have 4 ZR-1. down to only the 95, but yes for a short time I did have 3 of them. Steve Horton from VA has a SCWEET 92 red with white interior, now with dynamags, very special car. there is another one at coopers. these cars are very rare.

an "artic" all white ZR-1 is a very cool car. steve also has a 35th anniversary car which is all white.

indeed va does have a stable of very cool zr1s to be sure. maybe a stout callaway or two huh chris!!!

Here is a pic of the 1992 Red on White ZR-1 that I saw at Bowling Green. Is this the same car you guys are talking about? I don't recall what plates it had on it, but I am pretty sure he was from Virginia.
The car that Cooper Corvettes had 2 years ago was a 1993, wasn't it? I looked at that car for about 6 months trying to figure out how to come up with the cash to buy it.

I believe those are Dynomags, looks like the Callaways without the center caps. If I'm not mistaken these are very hard to come by. If you can find them they run about $3,000 for all 4.

Dymags are correct - last set I know of that sold (in ZR1 size) went for $4k (I handled the deal so I know this to be true )

They are "Challenge" Dymags, not Callaway Dymags...
