Default Back in the Club!!

I traded in my 2006 Z06 a few years ago and always regretted it. But if I had not have done that I would not have this beast now. I cannot put into words how awesome and fun this car is. It makes my Z06 feel slow.
Anyway, I am very glad to be back and in the ZR1 club.
I named her Black Widow. She is #30 of the 206 made!

Did you find it locally? Because I've been looking at selling my supercharged, Centennial GS and getting a Centennial ZR1... but they are not easy to find in pristine shape.

And you're just a few miles from me (I'm in Allen).

Just curious, that's all. Congrats on the car! Best C6 ever made, IMO.

OP, congrats on acquiring that beautiful CE ZR1. There is something very special about those CEs and not just their rarity. Keeping a black car clean takes the shine off the apple for me. But, they are stunning in bright sunlight with the glittering metal flake. The only time I have ever seen one (other than mine) was at an event at the NCM. They be rare for sure. I have the last CE ZR1 that was made.

No I found her in SC. He was the only dealer in the country that had a Centennial GS, Z06 and ZR1 for sale. I got very lucky.

Good for you. Congrats!

I may just not be looking in all the right spots. Cars.com, Cargurus, Ebay, Corvette Forum, and a few others...

Any suggestions on web sites to keep tabs on would be appreciated.

Car gurus was where I found her. I found it to be the most helpful and up to date. But I may have just had really good timing.
Good luck on your search!

Was it the one from R3 Motorcars? I still have all my notifications turned on from all the different car sites when I was on the hunt for mine.

There is one on Ebay right now, I spoke to him before I purchased mine, he went for the mid 80's to 75 currently. At that time he had 2 sets of rims the original and factory ZR1 chrome.

Thanks...

Yeah, that one has been for sale for awhile... most likely for a good reason. Not nearly enough pics or care taken to post a FS ad, IMHO.

There is one in W. Texas (about 6 hrs from me) with 1400 miles on it for mid-$90s+. Not willing to spend that, either.
