1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Coupe

Known as America's sports car, the Corvette has been well-cemented in the automotive history books since its introduction in 1953. This 1990 Corvette ZR1 represents a pivotal moment in that storied history — emerging during a period when the American automotive industry was experiencing a resurgence in high-performance sports cars. With competition like the Porsche 911 and Ferrari Testarossa gaining traction, the ZR1 combined performance, innovation, and style to give the buying public raw American power.

This example is a true time capsule finished in the eye-catching color of Bright Red (code 81) over a saddle leather tan interior. 7-liter LT5 V-8 engine paired with a ZF 6-speed manual transmission, plus selectable tour or sport ride modes and a special key to control power output. The ZR1 package also included the performance handling package, 6-way leather adjustable sport seats, and a Delco Bose Gold series music system.

This ZR1 has amazingly covered less than 7,000 miles from new and is accompanied by the original dealer paperwork including the window sticker, ZR1 special delivery box with VHS tape and manual, spare keys, and even the emergency key. 3 points out of 100 and was awarded a Top Flight Award on two separate occasions.
