I love your ZR1, my neighbor has a shadow gray one he bought last summer and yes indeedy I'm a jealous man. He's let me drive it and take the wife out for dinner a handful of times with it and man, what a treat it is! Thanks for the video! You did a wonderful job sharing your experience with the ZR1, and worthy of a sub.
Owned a '17 Z06 manual for 4 years. What a great experience. Did all maintenance, fluid & filter changes annually. Only take away is too much power. Made sure I never let it get away from me. Can't imagine driving a ZR1. 😮
Your ZR1 is definitely a very nice car! I own a '15 Stingray with the 7-speed. I considered moving to a C8, but I much prefer the manual transmission. Yes I know the manual is slower but I'd rather keep the manual shifting experience. :)
I've done just that. 42K miles so far. That's due to the fact I can drive it almost 24/7 and never get it wet. I'm in AZ. Originally from GA. They don't know what rain is here. ;)
It’s just me but the math is not mathing!!! 4 years, 3 oil changes, tires that’s just wear and tear maybe weekend warrior. Interior well 4 years and only 16k miles states the obvious. Great video, gorgeous car.
I just bought a 2015 C7 Stingray and the best thing about the platform is you get the performance and looks like you said but if something goes wrong or needs fixing, it's still a Chevy at the end of the day, you won't be shelling out thousands like you would for any luxury brand sports car. Best bang for buck on the road right now without question.
I have owned a 1988 Z-51, a 1991 ZR-1, a 2011 Cadillac CTS-V and now (may 2023) a C7 Z06, 3LZ in Daytona Sunrise Orange Metallic. It's not a ZR1 but it's phenomenal. Thanks for the video!
Beautiful car, I always said that the C7 is the best looking gen and the C7 ZR1 is the best of the best. I loved my '14 Z51 and to this day still think it looked better than my C8's although no one can deny that the C8 performs much better than it's C7 or any other gen counterparts. Keep the Z in mint condition, the fact that it's a MN7 will make it so much more valuable in the coming years.
What a beast of a car. Last front engine/top spec of the C7. Wouldn't be surprised if values skyrocket when people finally understand how special it is
Can't wait to see it in person! Corvettes at Carlisle right around the corner! If there were a C8 Z06 and this parked side by side, I wouldn't even see the C8! NEVER SELL IT! Can't say that enough!
Own one myself !!! Not pressing the seat time as much as you have done; but, with only 2200 on the clock, I feel like the ride is brand new every Spring !!!… It is SO GREAT, that may even be buried it !! Great video … Great
why not drive it more? when I bought my 91 C4 new which I still have, I put 13k miles on it the first year, just couldn't stay out of it! 91k miles on it now, still brings a smile to my face when I am shifting thru the 6 speed manual.
BAD ASS ZR1 MY FRIEND !! YOU HAVE TAKEN CARE OF YOUR ZR1 AMAZINGLY !! AND YES IT STILL LOOKS BRAND NEW - TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOUR STATEMENT ! TAKE CARE JUSTIN !! JESSE VIA LAS VEGAS
Immaculate car. Thanks for the video. I wish I had known about these before the market exploded. I prefer the C7 body style ahead of the C8. But ZR1 is where it's at.
Simply awesome content Justin ; your ZR1 is truly an automotive beauty, looking forward to seeing next to the Z06; always looking forward to upcoming content; take care !
Thanks! I'm super excited for the Z06 and it's maiden voyage will be made to Florida BEFORE PA so if you're around I'd love to have you stop by the shop and see it!
My friend owns a 2019 zr1, auto, a hellcat red eye, 2020 zl1 and a dodge demon. His zr1 dynoed at 699hp on the dyno. The car is sick.. I have a 2019 a10 zl1. In a race, he murdered me so bad. I then went with a pulley, roto fab, headers and off roads. He kicked my ass again even though I had 652hp and 720tq to the tire. I then added a 2650 Maggie, cam, low side fuel, meth, and e85. Now, I made just over 900hp on 14lbs and destroy his ass. Lol But, if he ever mods that car it's gunna wake up the devil himself because that car is amazing. Great car, nice review and thanks for posting.
The best corvette ever made and yet it still gets overshadowed by the c6 Zr1 from all the 1320 fanboys… why!!!??? This thing is a MUCH better car overall and not to mention FASTER
My dream car is a 2019 ZR1, 3ZR, non ZTK with the A8. I currently daily a 2015 Z06 3LZ A8. The reason for the A8 is my disability that only allows my left leg to work when it feels like it. We now have 88K miles on it and I love the car. With all the miles only additional expense other than the obvious services and tires, is a belt tensioner and an A/C compressor. Did you sell your ZR 1 as I have only seen videos of your C8.
the C7 ZR1 is the most beautiful car ever. my ZR1 list is the C7 first, C4 second, then C6 last. all blacked out btw. i love the red and black combo you got going with the ZR1. amazing man
@@Vette4Speed I don't think so. I don't want to go crazy with anything that requires a tune. I may do some porting of the supercharger though during the down months here in PA.
@@HorsePowerObsessed makes sense! i mean it sounds good regardless. streetspeed made his hound sooo good. im curious too do you got any plans to change tail lights
I have never owned a car for 4 years either. Typical is around 2 years for me. Last year was a record for me buying 5 cars. This year none. Until last week. May be 1 more this year. We shall see.
Nice video! I didn't have a ZR1, but when I traded in my C7, they gave me more for it then when I bought it, I love the C8, although I do miss the manual at times!!
I had the priviledge of driving a C7 ZR-1 when I worked for Chevrolet and it was one of 3 cars I have ever driven, that legitimately scared me. LOVE the car, but I could only imagine what it's like to REALLY get on it! The other 2, aside from the C7 ZR-1, was a 2014 Gallardo Superleggera and a 2014 GT500 Super Snake.
Very nice and you are a wise man and purchased at the right time. I personally like the Z06 ZR1 as i think its the last Vette that looks like a Vette but his will be a gem and collector like you stated. Nice that the interior held up well and your a bigger guy like me so makes me feel good about getting one when i retire in a few.
ZR1 C6 or C7 are the best I’m looking for either one because I own a 2003 C5 Z06 and it’s already powerful car imagine owning a ZR1 like you that will awesome pretty much a race w
Absolutely love the car , I own a 2016 stingray 3LT with an amazing red and black interior while a completely different animal I think my interior would put the ZR1 over the top and into the Ferrari and Lamborghini status. Plain black in a car like this just doesn't cut it . Just my opinion
Working out as a supercar owner helps with the entry and exiting. and Interior cost when it comes to wear and tear Ive done it Both ways and i prefer the latter
Beautifull car Justin! C7 ZR1 It's my favourite one!! I usually don't like black cars..but yours it's shinier than Dark Vader!! 😂 love it!!! I wouldn't sell it if I were u..save💰 for the next C8..
Met you at Carlisle this year. Really appreciate your maintenance videos and thanks for sharing your thoughts about long-term ownership. I have the 2017 Grand Sport, which when I bought it the wife said "make sure it is the one you want because you only get one :)" Luckily I love the car (almost as much as I love her) so plan to keep it for the duration. (have had her for 55 years)
I think they had many years to make them as good as possible work out bugs and get latest technology included it was was the last American Corvette the King in my opinion to me c8 are European looking maybe it will grow me ❤😂😂😂😊
Stunningly gorgeous car . I love it but can only dream the way an old man dreams, ...in black and white. I owned a 71 Corvette with a 454 for almost 4 years but sold it, my 70 Roadrunner and my 65 Harley Davidson when we found out Brandon was on his way ! I had to buy a house. The Vette was a lot of fun but was really expensive to keep fixing. Your mtc costs and your insurance costs are shockingly low compared to what i now pay for a 2008 Chrysler product with a Hemi in Canada. Anyway.... although I am a little bitter for getting old and sick - despite working insanely hard without ever catching a significant break , I am happy for you and every guy and girl that made it , providing they did it honestly. That signifies hope for everyone trying to make it now. Good luck to the hardworking people shooting for the stars. The most important thing for all of us , is believing in Jesus Christ as the Son of God. That gets you into heaven and could not be easier, because it's a free gift . Read John 3:16 .
Beautiful car, awesome review!! The C7 (to me) is better looking than the C8. I'm currently saving up for a C6 Z06. Great job buddy! New subscriber!!! 🖤. The front of this car is 😮😮😮!!!
If you’re looking for an automatic they seem to be pretty much everywhere. My go to is usually cars.com or the Corvette forums. If you’re looking for a manual you’re gonna want to look a little more personally like Facebook marketplace or something like that because they’re harder to find for a decent price.
Daaaaaaaaaam the reflection of the surrounding area on your glossy panels is a mirror image! Awesome looking ride inside and out. Since you made that video on your 4 year anniversary, you just need to do one last thing….SELL IT TO ME🤪🤣
Thank you! She isn't for sale, she's going to stick around for quite some time but I'll add you to the list of people who want it when I'm done with it lol
I’ve had mine since march ‘19 and ditto this vid. Just the coolest car I’ve ever had. Btw if you subtract Mexico and Canada exports there is only 2250 in the US. Got my name in my mine from GM for 200 bucks, can’t sell it now! Haaaa! Great vid Justin. Someday we shall meet up for a vid
Thanks for sharing, nice little Vette plus you've upgraded/added so many nice options to improve it. I can see you're proud of it too. Blessings to you fine sir.
Hi Justin Great vid and the ZR1 is awesome. Keep it. And we have some ZR1 in Europe. I was last weekend at a Corvette Show and there was 4 ZR1. Wave from Germany.
Thank you! They could be exported after purchase from what I understand but were not legally allowed to be sold directly from GM due to the issues I pointed out.
C7 Z06 Corvette number four for me, my first Vette was a C4 i ditch it three weeks owning it, i remember a guy in the crowd saying he must can afford it 😂 but absolutely right, everyone that drives a Vette dont have deep pockets, but there are those who do have deep pockets and can afford to replace or repair, its all in how you treat your car, i learn to not show out for the crowd, but i will do triple digits where i can get away with it😂 i drive smart not Hard👍🏽
No problems at all with the car, including the wheels. They are a flow forged wheel versus the z06 which has a cast wheel and is a lot more likely to crack.
@HorsePowerObsessed beautiful ride. I would never buy a z06. It feels like feature creeping, it's z51 or if I'm breaking the bank I'm hunting for a zr1.
Also! Mad respect to the numbered cars out there. Back in 2005, I had a Black Manuel 1999 Pontiac Firehawk #027 of 700. And I still dream about that car til this day. I will have another soon to bring back my dream and fulfill my mid life crisis 🤣
4 years of owning this beauty! What do you guys think of my experience? 🤔
It's a blessing that you've had it for 4 years with no issues at all, I can tell it's cared for though, so I'm sure that helps 👍🏽
💯
I love your ZR1, my neighbor has a shadow gray one he bought last summer and yes indeedy I'm a jealous man. He's let me drive it and take the wife out for dinner a handful of times with it and man, what a treat it is! Thanks for the video! You did a wonderful job sharing your experience with the ZR1, and worthy of a sub.
Thank you!! They are wonderful cars!
Do you want to sell this to me?
ZR1 is definitely the beast of the C7, and truly a game changer. You have done an amazing job with mods and keeping this beauty looking brand new!
Thank you my friend!
Z06 better imo
@HorsePowerO❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊bsessed
The C7 just looks better than the C8 IMO.
I agree
The C8 looks like a wannabe....
C8 looks like a low budget super car
Yeah I'd say just barely tho
Cool story, nobody cares. Everyone bitches about anything that changes, you will get used to it and stfu.
16k and "I drive it a lot" in the same sentence within a 4 year span lets try that again
Let’s not. I live in Pennsylvania where best case scenario I get about 4 to 5 months out of the year I get to drive the car.
Not a black car fan but mainly because they are brutal to daily them. On C7 you just don’t get more menacing than in black.
I would agree normally, but with Xpel and ceramic coating it really makes it as easy as any other color to own.
Owned a '17 Z06 manual for 4 years. What a great experience. Did all maintenance, fluid & filter changes annually. Only take away is too much power. Made sure I never let it get away from me. Can't imagine driving a ZR1. 😮
That to me is the majority of the fun. I love how easily this car can get away from you.
@@HorsePowerObsessed Remember when the GM Executive crashed the ZR1 Pace Car..
@jeffreyhillery1614 I do lol
Beauty of a car dream car hope one day I have one
If it was to much power u should have bought a grand sport they r not for everyone respect ur power or u have problems just like your wife😢😢😅
The best part besides the driving expirence has to be the value increase. Also love the Doug Demuro style into! 👍👍👍
Totally agree! Glad you liked it!

Exactly this! I couldnt care less how much faster an EV is or an automatic... i will ALWAYS drive a manual V8
Nobody talks about how the zr1 was an investment, one now worth almost twice what it was originally. Such an amazing car.
💯
Such a badass menacing looking car. Was never the biggest C7 fan but as of late I just can’t seem to get enough. Congrats man
Love the car. Think I'd have put 40, 000 miles on her in 4 years. Good job preserving this monster of a ride! ❤
Thanks! Unfortunately, in PA, we can only drive these things about 4 months out of the year usually!
I've done just that. 42K miles so far. That's due to the fact I can drive it almost 24/7 and never get it wet. I'm in AZ. Originally from GA. They don't know what rain is here. ;)
45K on mine. In fact I replaced the engine air filter on Tuesday since it's due every 45K miles. (I don't have the Jake air filter).
Justin DeMuro! The ZR1 is and will always be a legend. Great video my friend!
Thank you, Pat! I greatly appreciate the support!

I read because of the push for green, it was too much to de-tune a ZR-1 and therefore they weren't going to produce them.

That car is 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! I still love this car as much as day one!
About to start looking for this model. What is your advice / resources to find one of these?
If you’re looking for an automatic they seem to be pretty much everywhere. My go to is usually cars.com or the Corvette forums. If you’re looking for a manual you’re gonna want to look a little more personally like Facebook marketplace or something like that because they’re harder to find for a decent price.
Awesome video...Just wondering how do you get stuff inside the trunk with the huge wing?
Thanks. A side approach is the way to get things in the trunk.
Daaaaaaaaaam the reflection of the surrounding area on your glossy panels is a mirror image! Awesome looking ride inside and out. Since you made that video on your 4 year anniversary, you just need to do one last thing….SELL IT TO ME🤪🤣
Thank you! She isn't for sale, she's going to stick around for quite some time but I'll add you to the list of people who want it when I'm done with it lol
@@HorsePowerObsessed Alllll Right…your too kind🤣👍🏻
@@markkutsy 😂😂😂
I’ve had mine since march ‘19 and ditto this vid. Just the coolest car I’ve ever had. Btw if you subtract Mexico and Canada exports there is only 2250 in the US. Got my name in my mine from GM for 200 bucks, can’t sell it now! Haaaa! Great vid Justin. Someday we shall meet up for a vid
Heck yeah, man! We definitely should! Getting 2 ZR1's together in a video is almost unheard of!
Last real corvette made,and the best corvette ever made
Thanks for sharing, nice little Vette plus you've upgraded/added so many nice options to improve it. I can see you're proud of it too. Blessings to you fine sir.
Thank you!
Hi Justin
Great vid and the ZR1 is awesome.
Keep it.
And we have some ZR1 in Europe.
I was last weekend at a Corvette Show and there was 4 ZR1.
Wave from Germany.
Thank you! They could be exported after purchase from what I understand but were not legally allowed to be sold directly from GM due to the issues I pointed out.
C7 Z06 Corvette number four for me, my first Vette was a C4 i ditch it three weeks owning it, i remember a guy in the crowd saying he must can afford it 😂 but absolutely right, everyone that drives a Vette dont have deep pockets, but there are those who do have deep pockets and can afford to replace or repair, its all in how you treat your car, i learn to not show out for the crowd, but i will do triple digits where i can get away with it😂 i drive smart not Hard👍🏽
Congrats on the new car! They are awesome machines for sure! Treat them right and they'll treat you right!
@@HorsePowerObsessed that's the key, now 70 I understand 👍🏽
💯
Love this car looks awesome.Justin any issues with rims? Like cracked rims or bend rims. What are the rims of ZR1 made of (factory). Thanks.
No problems at all with the car, including the wheels. They are a flow forged wheel versus the z06 which has a cast wheel and is a lot more likely to crack.
Your Vette is the best ive seen on the net.❤🖤❤️🖤❤️🖤❤️ didn't you used to have a red seat divider on this car?
Yes I did, I removed it.
Probably the best produced Vette
Agreed.
Love this idea. See way to many test drive videos not enough years later ownership
Glad you liked it!
The doug demuro vibe intro. Nice touch👍
Glad you like it!
@HorsePowerObsessed beautiful ride. I would never buy a z06. It feels like feature creeping, it's z51 or if I'm breaking the bank I'm hunting for a zr1.
Never had an issue with mine. But have only driven it 4 times. Museum piece to me.
Also! Mad respect to the numbered cars out there. Back in 2005, I had a Black Manuel 1999 Pontiac Firehawk #027 of 700. And I still dream about that car til this day. I will have another soon to bring back my dream and fulfill my mid life crisis 🤣
Dude
Amazing car excellent choice of modes Bedazzled, finest C7 I've seen in long time
Thanks, man. I appreciate that!
Fantastic video my friend! Who do you use for insurance??
Thank you! Erie Insurance.
