Craig,
No.............I don't know who the owner of this one is. There was 28 of these cars delivered through Berger Chevrolet in Grand Rapids. I know the owners of most of those 28 cars but several of those cars have traded owners since delivered. For example, Charlie Lilliard in California owned the #3 2002 Phase III ZL1, sold it to Patrick Jointer in Texas and now John Meyer with Happy Days Dream Cars in Warrensburg, MO owns it and has it for sale at his dealership.
The car mentioned in this thread is the #10 car sold from Hendrick Chevrolet. I don't know who the present owner is/was. I know that Hendrick bought a couple of these cars with no specific owner ordering them so that they could put them on their showroom floor for show and to sell them at a nice profit.
I would agree that selling the car through a broker sounds a little odd unless the owner is financially sound and had just decided to get rid of it and doesn't want to mess with the logistics of selling it himself. Most of these cars, as you off all people well know, have traded among "people in the know". They either get in touch with Matt Murphy at GMMG, Inc. and put the word out to him that they are either looking for a ZL1 or want to sell theirs or they get in touch with one of the dealerships that sold them like Berger and tell them that they are looking to sell or buy. I know when a friend of mine purchased his Berger SS, that's what we did. I contacted Dennis Barker (when he was with Berger Chevrolet) and told him that I had a friend who was looking for a Berger SS. A couple of weeks later Dennis called me and told me he knew of one and wanted to know if he could contact my friend and tell him about it. The rest is history. My friend now owns the very first Berger SS ever produced.

I talked to two different salesman via telephone about them and neither could give me any specific info on any of the cars. All they could say was that only 69 were built and they are very special and Blah, Blah, Blah! I got the feeling they would rather sell me a Hummer. I called Matt and he told me what you have mentioned. Hendrick wanted to flip some cars for a larger profit.
Seems many of the GMMG cars are desirable.......and thats a good thing!
