Condition
This Corvette ZR1 is a near-pristine example, with the exterior GM Black paint appearing as flawless as it did the day it left the factory. Two minor paint imperfections are visible on the hood, but overall, the finish gleams as if the car has been sealed in time for over three decades. The factory alloy wheels are nothing short of impressive, boasting a reflective finish that remains virtually untouched, showing no significant signs of wear, with only minor traces where the original wheel weights were once clamped.

The interior is equally stunning. The black leather seats look as if they were stitched yesterday, with the headrest stitching still fresh and tight. The leather surfaces are immaculate, free from wear or fading, and even the driver's floor mat shows only minor wear consistent with careful clutch use. What truly sets this car apart is the interior hardware, which remains untouched—every screw and fastener head looks as if a tool has never touched it, preserving the car’s originality in a way that is rarely seen.

Maintenance and Modifications
Mechanically, the car has been meticulously maintained, with basic annual services carried out regularly. Despite the passage of time, no major repairs have been required. In the early 2000s, a Flowmaster II cat-back exhaust was installed, delivering a more aggressive sound while maintaining the car’s driveability. Impressively, the original GM exhaust is included in the sale, providing the option to restore the car to its factory state. The tires and brakes remain in fantastic condition, showing minimal wear and requiring no immediate replacement.
