Oh yea, in NY state they don't have any choice but to give it back, but they try and hold onto it as long as they can. Actually, I am kind of relieved in a way, because its a really good deal that I didn't want to pass up, but its not what we are looking for right now. We just got out of our 89 to get something newer; believe me, if the age didn't matter we would still be driving the 89. This kind of took it out of my hands. The ZR1 is truly and awesome car though I must say. DG

I had a lot of fun driving it, and would have bought it if the deal had worked out. But no regrets. I am really missing the cool factor though lately, and my 96SS is just not cutting it right now...

Hey check this out, a ZR-1 clutch master for $211. http://www.whiteracingproducts.com/in ... cPath=200&products_id=867 Psst... don't tell anyone it's the same part used on base Corvettes and is available for $60 elsewhere.

Windshield, repops were available not anymore. Regular C4 windshield - 250 Thermostat - 20 bucks NAPA And the clutch master is the same for all Maual trans 89-96 cars. There are aftermarket pieces available. So no biggie. I also carry GM slaves for less. Next?

Don't bet on it. One of the Corvette mags did a comparo between a new Z06 and a stock ZR1 (1994 or so)... the ZR1 actually was faster in the 1/4 mile than the Z06. They are slower by today's standards, but not THAT slow!!!

What's a tire worth in the 1/4, about 0.3 sec? So let's say low 12's on street tires. And add some turns to the mix and there's no comparison. The C5Z is the current KING of road racing. The C6 (non-Z06) is just starting to penetrate the racing scene, with mixed results.

Offer anyone a free one of either, no/low miles, there's no comparison. LT5 everyone everytime uh huh!
