I should have bought that... that was SWEET !




I'm surprised the HERO Edition 2011 ZR1 (1 of 1 ever made) only sold for $89,000
For a 1 of 1 car I would have assumed it would sell for more.

It was a blast, volunteered with Lone Star Corvette Club to be a driver for the Auction. The 69 ZL1 Camaro was one of the best I got to drive. The 68 Dodge Dart with the all aluminum Hemi and 2 1050 Holey's was chest pounding!!!
