thats not bad price. The 95 LT5's (which are the more desired i think) go for around $20,000 to $25,000. And thats without the zf transmission.

If I had expendable income(still waiting to hit the lottery or to start my drug selling career lol), yes...I'd absolutely spend that much and swap into something for the wow factor.

the rarity, low miles, and exponential power levels would sway me.

the fact that the setup can do 200 mph also makes it worth it. dont let the power fool you on that motor....that thing would swamp anything on the highway....especially in a fbody

Plus you are paying for rarity. that guy runs 10-20% high IMO anyway.

If you got the money to pay for that, you can find a place to go that fast.

They typically run faster than that....don't judge a car by a crap driver. By your logic your car isn't fast since you don't race yours at the track right?(not saying that to be a ass, just proving a point).
They're also not dedicated 1/4 mile cars either.

I must be missing it. My car isnt fast...never said it was, and that has nothing to do w/ if i race it or not. What crappy driver would that be the professional driver/development manager of the corvette in the video ? Maybe they should have called you to drive it.

Well that would make this a good deal then , seeing theres a tranny attached to it.

They've gone a bit faster stock(unless the videos I've seen weren't stock cars). The reason I said what I said is because you're judging the motor on a 1/4 mile time. You've done it before like the 1/4 mile time is some magical end all be all stat. The car isn't set up for the drag strip. Somehow a 12.9 makes it less of a motor or something(the reason I brought up your racing history, or lack thereof is because you seem to have an arrogance about you and track times of other cars).
I never claimed I was some great driver but I have no doubts about my ability, kthanxbye.

the zr-1 wasn't a drag car. it was a race car that set world records for track speeds.
