Default Just saw the ZR1

On Rochester road in Troy, MI. Had the huge wing, cheek cooler front end, shaker hood. Camo on the rear and front but not middle of the car. Looks fast and much better in person.

Yeah, they're around the Sterling Heights area too. Since I work near the GM facility, I see what appears to be the same vehicle once every other week while heading home from work. You'd think these were actually on sale with the amount of sightings that people are seeing on the streets lately.

I think those cheek inlets are too big. Distracts from the car design. But what do I care, its not like i can buy one anyway.

Well said! I was just thinking the other day, maybe that's not camo, maybe that's how they're going on sale (LOL).

Another sighting yesterday. This car may have been posted before but saw a yellow ZR1 while driving from Marco Island (FL) to Naples. There were a couple of other Vettes around it.

Sorry, no time for pix since I was moving. Those air intakes look like two catfish with mouths wide open. My C7 GS is fine for me at this time (Just bought it this past May).
