:omg: they just coulda waited a few months and saved a little bit of money but hey.. then they wouldnt own the first one

did GM auction off that unit? cause in that case i would say go GM! they made a pretty nickle off that car

reading ftw, it goes to charity, united way

i watched it last night the auction block was crazy jay leno was there talking about chevys and how reliable his z06 vettes are he said now he has to go buy a zr1....but the car is not the one that was on the block because they said the person who won has alot of options u can watch it being made all the way down the line start it up at the end all kinds of perks i can"t rem all lol and it will be 1 of 1 retired what a pc of history right there......this is a very awesome oppertunity that guy got and it went to united way charity so was tax deduction also........

car was damn nice.......:drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool:

yeah, every penny over sticker price went to united way

yeah the color will be a one of one option that will not be available to anyone else

and the bidding actually topped at 900.000.00 the guy raised his own bid to a million dollars.....:nod:

go him... and then the first challenger got auctioned off for 400k :drool:


and mike ashley's car went for 130k :banghead: wtf is wrong with people?

id buy a funny car in a heart beat

yeah, for that price.. you couldn't even get the engine for that price.. absolutely ridiculous.

vetts are nothing but a big ego boost trying to make up for something els eh...

Enough with the small dick comments...
Its the ZR1, the ultimate Corvette, and the ultimate performance matchine.
Its not some base C6 convertable that your diveroced neighbor drives, trying to pick up girls at starbucks with...

That 1 million got the buyer;
1.Custom paint that will only be on their car.
2.The serial # of 00001
3.A special ZR-1 jacket
4.A second hood signed by all involved in the design and building of the ZR-1
there were also pics and video of the making of the car. The winner will be the first one to start the car when it comes off the production line if they want. Delivery will be at the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green,KY. Also,anything paid over the sticker price is a tax write-off.

Any pictures?

it hasnt been built yet :lol:

yeah but one did roll across the auction block.....just one of the car show ones, so hes allowed to ask for pics

Great, now the dealers are definitely marking those cars up when they come out :lol:

that's all BJ shows on their list, it's posible if you dig through the pics that someone took while they were there you could find them but i haven't seen any

A friend of my dad's just told us that he's on "the list" at a Chevy Dealer near Easton PA. He's second on the list...after Mario Andretti :eek: and too bad they are making 3000 of them for 4500 chevy dealerships. There probably won't be enough allocated to his dealer to be able to get his hands on one.
