I've never seen one out my way, but I do live in a sorta rural area.
There are always a few for sale in SA. I took mine in to Seguin the other day, to get an inspection sticker at an oil change place, and they all came out to take pictures of it. People who know, seem to appreciate them.

You know, you just don't see many C6 ZR1s out on the road. I saw a white one yesterday in my area and it looked sharp. I probably see two a year. I live in the Flower Mound area of DFW. There is a lot to like about them and the exclusivity is one of them. I see a lot of C7 Zs, but not that many C6 Zs. Naturally, as cars get older you don't see them as much. It's just going to get more exclusive as the years roll on and some of them bite the dust. And if they become collector cars, they rarely get driven. It sure is a lot sharper looking than a C7 ZR1, but don't tell anyone in the C7 section. That thing looks like bloated bat mobile.

Even in SoCal in the land of exotic cars, and being a frequent driver up in the popular canyons in the areas, I see C6 ZR1s probably literally once a year or once every 1.5 years. Super rare sighting for sure

I had a '12 Centennial ZR1 with satin wheels (1 of 5) that I drove a ton around the Houston area. I even tracked it at Texas World Speedway several times up until Harvey turned it into a parking lot. I did love the car but it had its faults too. It will follow the curve of the C4ZR1 on collecting and value though. Does not matter how rare they are to see either. But I had my fun and sold it this year. Moving on to the next one but leaning to older vs newer.

Ummmmmm some of us former C6ZR (and C7Z) now “bloated batmobile” owners do read this section
. See a LOT Of C7Zs, and C6Zs , a few C6ZRs, and no C7 ZRs yet in Florida, but a few in Michigan. Love them all

I also live in the Houston area and rarely see them in the wild, other than mine 
n the last Corvette cruise I went on there were two more. I've seen a red one once or twice and that's about it. C7 Z06s are everywhere, and I have yet to see a C7 ZR1 on public roads. Only one of those I have seen was at the dealer and it's ugly IMO.

I see C7 ZR's more often than C6 ZR's. I also see C4 ZR's more than both haha.
C6 ZR is still King to me

I live in southern MD and, to my knowledge, have the only C6 ZR1 south of the DC area in MD. A 2010 CMG with black satin cups that I’ve had since 2/15. Gets a lot of looks especially with my UDLOOZE tag. Been to Myrtle Beach 4 times on golf trips and not seen another ZR1 on the road or in MB. Even went to the Corvette Show at Broadway on the Beach in May 2016. Guessing about at least 100+ Corvettes. Not one C6 ZR1, other than mine, and no C4 ZR1s. My Beast got a lot of attention. I was embarrassed that it was not clean but it still got attention.

Well, saw a grey ZR1 in my area yesterday. And a yellow C6 Z06 today when I got mine out for a short spin. The grey ZR1 looked spotless and very sharp. Not sure if the spot I saw it was Flower Mound or Lewisville, but it was near the border of the two cities. So it has only been about a month since I saw the other one.

‘I am out in Fulshear (by Katy TX), I have lived in the Houston area and have seen two other ZR1s in the four years I have been here. On a side note, I counted five c7 zo6s one evening when I was going to a business dinner.
