Jay Leno Drives His Corvette ZR1
 

nice... i figured hed like it lol

where's the video? do i suck that bad?

center of the page?

wow he could really be a great car salesman, the way he was describing one sounds like hes very persuasive. but the car is sick

i see the article, advertisement, and photos

right below "performance bargain of the decade"

so weird it doesn't load. ha

That is awesome. Im going to buy a lottery ticket in the morning!

He talked about John Fitch!!!!!! I love that guy!!! he's the coolest guy on this planet. he's 90, and still racing, he's trying to get a 300SL to break its class record atthe salt flats, and he's always at Lime Rock for the historics. He loves his photo taken, signing autographs, and takign people for a drive in his what we call the " Fitch mobile", but its also called a pheonix, its a corvair chassis with a design he had made, he always thought the Corvair was a monumental car that could of taken off if GM would of worked on it more.

my friend's gf's father actually has a Corvair vert sittin in his garage collecting dust. Looks like it's sat for years but the body seems to be in great shape as well as the top.

I love corvairs, but they get no lovin unless its a turbo version lol. thay are cool, a boxer motor, rear engine, they were playing the tune of porsche back in the day, but it never really took off. I know a guy that suped up a motor, put Porsche tripple carbs on it, and runs about 300HP, thing is nasty in it, but has a tendancy to breakdown cause its not really ment for that kind of power haha.

At first glance I thought it was like a 66 Mustang cuz I saw through the window and it had a bunch of crap piled on top of it. lol

little bigger & direct link

ok... maybe im slow or missed somethign or just uneducated... but what the article said about him saying 1 gallon of clear paint on the ZR1 is $60,000... is that just a joke, or did he mean it as kidding that ur not paying all that for the motor which is why he said its a bargin.., it cant be serious can it lol... gimme a break lol

Clear coat comment = serious.
Bargain = car in general.

For $119k it is actually a bargain, if you consider the cars that it can compete with.

i thought that guy who bid on the ZR-1 from Barrett-Jackson got the very first ZR-1????????????

^^^ i was thinking the same thing... but hes leno he could have easily cought up with that guy and paid a rediculous amount for it... that car is sick... its a shame GM is in so much trouble they really have been comen out with some amazing stuff lately...

Only the carbon fiber parts are painted with the special clear so the expoxy or resin doesnt yellow over time with sun exposure
