Mecum auto auction

WoW, 1990 corvette ZR1 sold for a measly 21k. I would have bought that vs the frs. It is amazing some of the cheap prices some awesome cars really sell for at this huge action, Mecum.

Those cars have been cheap for quite some time now.. They use the LT5 that was custome built by lotus for Chevy.. If you can even find parts for it.. It would be very expensive to repair.. And the vette bodies back then were so flimsy..
One of the best values out there for vettes is the 02-04 Z06.. Very affordable and great handling .. LS6 is a great motor.. Was the best of the C5s..

If I wanted a sports car that had a crap 90's interior, was expensive to fix, and was made out of the same material as Playschool toys, I would have bought a vintage ZR1 too haha. I drove the new ZR1 from Colorado to California and that or a Z06 are the only vettes I would buy.
