How many C5 Corvette ZO6 GTR versions were made? How rare are they? Were they modified by independent shops like a Hennessy Callaway or Lingenfelter?

Not too bad looking but it was expensive to do ($32K) and the engine mods were another $16K which is absolutely insane for a measly 79 HP increase. They are rare.

Is this car going to be considered a collector in the future?

Some might argue they will. Others might say, they were not popular then, so why would they be now (or in the future). Just enjoy your car and forget the dollars and sense....

Pretty rare in terms of production, but maybe for a good reason - way too expensive.
