Cream-of-the-crop Sebring Orange ZR1 Is One Deadly ‘Vette

By Derin Richardson - April 6, 2020

With just more than 600 miles and virtually every option ticked off, this barely-driven 2019 Corvette ZR1 is worth every penny.

When the 2019 C7 ZR1 made its debut in November 2017, it was not only a mind-blowing reveal but humbling one, too. Imagine hearing that a production General Motors car wields 755 horsepower/715 ft-lbs of torque, carbon ceramic rotors and tons of cooling. You’d have been giddy, too. At the time, there was nothing to compare it to horsepower-wise; no SRT Demon, no Hellcat Redeye, no Shelby GT500. It was truly the “King of American Performance.” And it is still currently the fastest Corvette money can buy, at least until the C8 Z06 makes its debut.

However, the ability to do work is where the comparison stops with the competition. The ZR1, and any ‘Vette for that matter, is in a class of of its own. You take any of the entries above and throw them on track with the ZR1, and you will find that brutal straight line performance will only take you so far. A car like this Sebring Orange Tintcoat 2019 Corvette ZR1 3RZ for sale on our sister site, Corvette Forum, is truly alive on a circuit. Not necessarily in a water box.

ZR1 Options Galore

Being a 3RZ with Sebring Orange Design Package, you really can’t get any higher than this, trim-wise. Curb cameras for parking, carbon fiber wrapped steering wheel, PDR, orange custom leather stitch, and more. Sure, it lacks the ZTK track package, but it’s barely been broken in and has plenty of tire tread left. The seller is asking for $129K for a nigh $150K car. Sure, that is still quite a bit of money for the grassroots track rat. But honestly, if you have the dough, this really isn’t that bad of a deal.

What do you guys think? Is this worth the hard cash, or would you take a hard pass? Let us know in the forums!
