It's weird, but the more I see of these the less I like it, but maybe in person it's better. The hood comes off more as muscle car and not sports car and the front end just looks way over sized. I will wait to see it in person for final judgement, but I really prefer my Z06 looks.

It does give off a quarter mile "vibe".

You're right in some pictures it don't look that good...I saw the ZR1 at the LA show and no matter which angle I looked at it it just looked awesome especially the hood...you really got to see this car in person to really get how aggressive and sexy it does look.....the hideous wing can go IMO but that's just me.

I thought some of the features looked “weird” or maybe out of proportion in a lot of the pictures as well. Saw the car at Detroit auto show and it was awesome. Everything looked proportional and flowed. I think the wing looks bad ***. Actually “balances the look of the car. I think the small wing looks kinda out of place on this bad boy.

Someone is going to give that owner the "two stall" key... not smart on their part..
I was thinking the same but like me also I always park in the back 40 away from every one.

I saw three ZR1s last night (7:45 PM) on Alligator Alley while traveling back home to Naples.

There were three....two coupes AND a convertible with Manufacturer plates.
It was too dark to safely get any pics

Is it just me or is that not an egregious amount of brake dust?

Probably a combination of brake dust and dirt since the car is pretty dirty. I still need to know what sticking out of the second cars hood.

It's the wing ends of the first parked ZR1.

Spotted a torch red ZR1 in San Tan, AZ last evening. Sorry no pix. Happened fast!

Ps most likely the same one LDYSTIC has pictured above.
