Default Wow.. 1990 Corvette ZR1 with 950 miles in Salem!?!

I'm probably the only one impressed with this, but I was happy to see such a rare Corvette being sold out of the Roanoke area. Not only are the old ZR1's hard to come by, but this motherfucker has 950 original miles. How do you buy a car like that and keep it for 19 years and not drive it more than 1000 miles???

Looks like they're asking more than $40k for the car, but I think it's almost a sure thing that the value is only going to go up.

No, it's def. cool. I knew a guy in nova that had one with very low mileage. It was one of the 405hp ones.

Cool cars.

Wow!!! That would mean the car is driven around 4 miles per month. Dang.

Seriously though I hate people that do that. I cannot stand most cars being investment items. I understand they have value but at least drive it once in a while to enjoy it thats the whole reason why it was built. I envy jay leno though.

I agree. That thing was built to be driven, not sit around for 19 years.

my 04 CTS-V has like 1300 miles on it... In the past 5 years. Not that it compares to this, but it's another "corvette" with low miles rarely driven hahaha

Just goes to show these vette style cars are boring no one wants to drive them hahaha jk
