badass

@6:00 IS THE BEST LOOKING CORVETTE OUT THERE!!! MY DAD'S!!! GO DAD Charlee said " GO POP POP" LOVE YOU SO MUCH

It looks great in standard and this spec / wheels / stripes and color. I like the cleaner less busy look for street car .

I doubt atc$250.000 there will be few takers that will actually see this ZR1 in there stable

WILL THE ZR1 HAVE CYLINDER DEACTIVATION? I wish you could shut down/turn off it? If there’s a way to do it, please post how.

I have a 2019 c7 grand sport. I love all 450hp. . My goal is to be able to order a brand new 2025 ZR1 fully loaded in 2025 and feel the difference with the 1064hp.... Wish Me Luck... REG19

Awesome ZR1! Beautiful in Black with the blue wheels

Love how people like looking at stock cars

Thanks for posting! Purchasing a ZR1 for sure... GM watch for a build under my user name here!

I love Hysteria Purple. I'd get it with a red interior myself.

This is the exact spec I would want other than the coupe. You get the large wing. I love the blue wheels

What a car. Thank you for posting.

I ordered a Silver Flare Stingray but canceled it when a Sea Wolf Gray became available locally. The color is growing on me.

Love that black one,but thats a job in itself.

finally hysteria purple in the sun!

Kieth was that the new Habanero interior on the Hysteria Purple E-Ray? Kind of looked like it.

2025 cars only for rich in USA lol 😂

I think the new Hysteria color is quite 'BLAH' !!!!

If that 1st E-Ray in your Vlog is a 2025 it would be Sebring Orange not Amplify Orange?

Older video, BEAUTIFUL Corvette, this one brought the $BIG MONEY$ wonder what kind of MONEY it would bring now, somebody got the CASH 💸 $245,000!

I can almost smell this video! Roger told me he was offered and turned down 4M for the ZL1..Such an iconic car, with a great story behind it.

Please don't coat your rubber with this shit! It pisses your wife off when she eventually bumps into it with her nice dinner clothes. It will also get all over your hands whenever you take the roof off. Doesn't make sense anyways, rubber on rubber does not cause creaks. This is GM selling you shit you do not need. You may put a stingy amount on the pins and latch hook but any grease will work. Also we have worked on thousands of these roofs and never encountered a loose pin. You can check them, but these frames are magnesium, do not overtighten and strip the threads. Start addressing these noises by replacing your front o-rings on the front locating pins with new ones or larger ones or even doubling them up. Next if you have the early style latch with the roller type bushing, get rid of them and replace with the later fixed block style. These two things will fix 90% of the noise issues.

Great grandpa painted and pinstriped the 53s very cool to see 001!

FAKE . Fabricated to match the GM records. Some clever criminal people here inside organizations who think they are going to pull a fast one. They will end up in prison. Someone will come out of wood work and prove it is not the car they claim it is and then they will be stuck with a FBI investigation after the try to pawn this off in an auction for millions.

The bad thing is that someone attached a huge speaker on the back of that car. Shame on them!!

Look at the wing. This is a Z06, not a ZR1.

It is absolutely incredible to see what he and GM has done. It is so exciting and it’s awesome to see how many people have become Corvette fans.

There will never be an official Ring time released unless it beats Viper ACR 7:01 lap time

Yo this car is gonna sound crazy straight pipped or with a less restrictive exhaust 😳

Instructions unclear. Got my dick stuck in exhuast valve.

Anyone get the lap time of the yellow delivery truck at 3:48? Asking for Fed-Ex...

If you want the low down on the car we need to have a way to contact each other besides here. My Grandfather was the first owner. He was the reginal Mgr for Chevrolet Motor Division for the eastern half of the US, Corneilius Glock. At this moment I am looking at a GM photo of him sitting in it with a GM sir num on the back of the photo. You guys got one thing right...Ohio. I am busy tomorrow but will check back on Friday. Funny story I'd think you'd like about the car. Thanks for your time, Paul Glock

Well owning a 5.5 now I can tell that definitely is one.

Don't care what it is it's ugly as dog do do C'mon wid it!!

The first couple of vets ever manufactured were destroyed as test mules this is a lot of nonsense here

I thought NASCAR owner Rick Hendrick owned the first Corvette?

At 2:39 hybrid Zora is spotted

Some years ago Corvette #003 was auctioned off, and it was represented at the time that #001 and #002 were scrapped by Chevrolet. That left #003 as being the lowest serial numbered unit, and it was sold to a Corvette collected in that fashion.

So are we talking that this is the Corvette that is featured in this First Corvette Being Build 1953 video? It starts out with what I guess are engineers inspecting the license plate part, maybe talking about how best to improve it. It also show a flat floor, which would correspond to the floor being cut out and lowered 3/4 of an inch. czcams.com/video/Oxyy8_K03w0/video.html

I worked at a dealership where a pristine example of that car sat 5’ from my office door . While certainly a piece of history , those cars were really a weak entry into that market and the sales reflected it . To big, poor handling , underpowered , expensive and lousy build . Like when GM tried to enter the small car market with chevette

There was a story around when I was a kid that Mr. Springs bought the first Corvette at the Waldorf show. He owned Springs Cotton Mills and lived in Lancaster, South Carolina. I was born and raised in Lancaster so I heard this story probably in the mid sixties. That story solidly plants the car in South Carolina when new. This guy's reference to a 'South Carolina owner' ties in with what I was told way back then.

How much do you want for it? What do you think it's worth?

I'll give you 5 Gretzky rookie cards a Shoeless Joe World Series worn jersey a Babe Ruth home rum bat and 50 packs of unopened Tang from the Apollo 13 mission

My rich neighbor bought a new 1953 Corvette and had a hitch installed and hauled his 1 horse trailer around Western Pa and Northern Wva to the race tracks. His name was Morgan, and he complained that he had to keep the top down because it was too low for his 10 gallon cowboy hat.

001- UNREAL

I would put back the way it came off the assembly line . All that stuff they did to it after the fact is not the car . I would keep the parts though and those part will stay with the car .

So where is the damn car?

Delusional. No way.

I was an early NCRS member and, with my ‘54, participated (in 1966/7) in possibly the first competitive showing of C1s at the Sloan Museum in Flint, Michigan as a member of the Vintage Chevrolet Club. I knew and regularly communicated with one of the founding NCRS members (Sam Folz). If they might be of any interest I have snapshots (that I was unable to attach here) of the seven ‘53-‘55 Corvettes that were registered. I know Sam’s early ‘53 was at least one of them.
