350,000$ for a ZR-1

its actually pretty funny that people are taking $350K ads on craigslist seriously... ;)

04RCSTI 03-12-2008 01:16 PM

Why would I buy a car that was heavier and less powerful than my current ride? ;)

I guess.. or just wait for the parts to be available in GM's parts list for a discount ;)

Besides, those bling Enzo brakes are really no good without the giant 20" wheels... which severly limit your tyre choices.

Or custom ceramic brakes.

For non-competition track work, those brake systems are a total waste of money.. and are not called "Big Brag Kits" instead of "Big Brake Kits" for nothing ;)

For the price, they offer no more stopping power or longivety than regular iron brakes :)

The bottomline is that unless you have a million dollar prize on the line and need the last 1000000000th of a second they are only for bling and bragging rights unless they happen to be stock on your ride ;)

The irony is that on Porsche, whom has had PCB brakes as an option for the longest time, many owner downgrade to iron brakes for track duty... ;)

The maintenance on carbon caramic brakes is very expensive.

ZR1 not ZR-1. Thought someone was really crazy to pay that much for a C4 Corvette from the '90's.

From Barrett-Jackson 2008. It sold at auction for a million, so 350k sounds like a discount.
If anyone wants to complain about the interior, I took picture of the inside.
