Hey Gang. Here is a link to the next generation of ZR1 available spring of 2018. Who will be the first in the group to step up to this new beast?

Just in time. Looking for a treat for my upcoming 80th birthday

Several months ago I gave Bryner a deposit for their ZR1, thinking that orange package, and send it to Caravaggio to do the interior, and make that rear wing WAY SMALLER

I'm pretty sure that hi wing will be optional. You'll probably be able to order the car without it.

I have heard from two different GM people, one said you can, the other said you have to get the big wing and change it, something with the ZTK package, but at this point it doesn't matter, it can't be any worse than looking thru the clear rear spoiler now.

Got a pic of it in orange with the small with, it didn't include the carbon fiber front splitter parts like the ZTK edition does, next two weeks the orders go in so I am sure we'll figure it out by then, the high wing could make a nice drink stand for events.

I just got to think at 130k for a 3ZL, add a few more things and tax your 150k out the door, that's a big jump when my 17' 3ZL Z06/Z07 was 86k delivered to my driveway, of course you just don't get deals for over 20k off sticker everyday, but I guess compared to the 812 the price is a steal, so let the insanity continue.

Unfortunately for me Bryner sold ZERO Z06's last year, so they get ZERO ZR1's in the first 2 years for some GM reason. I kind of figured this out on Dec 8th when all the other dealers were posting how many allocation they were getting for the ZR1, called Bryner and they didn't know about the Dec 8th release date, and of course never got a letter of allocation because they did not sell a Z06 in 2017. I was able to get Ken Fichtner's last allocation from Montana for a coupe, and got a convertible from my friend in upstate NY, they sold ONE Z06, and got 3 allocations, go figure, got his last one, and have GM order numbers for both. I keep trying Mr Peterson it just seems Bryner doesn't want to sell me a car.

Hi Carl, considering the volume of Corvettes we sell each year and being one of the largest Corvette dealers in the region, we fully expected to get an initial allocation for the ZR1. Unfortunately, Chevrolet based the allocation not on overall Corvette sales, but solely on Z06 sales. Over the past few years, we sold quite a few Z06 Corvettes, but last year we did not. It is not that we are unwilling to sell you a car, we just are unable to offer you or anyone a ZR1 based on our initial allocation. As we understand it, this allocation only covers the 2019 model year; however, we are working with our zone team to try and earn an allocation in this model year. We are truly sorry for this outcome and we did not anticipate not getting an allocation for this year. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any additional concerns or questions. Thanks!

Thank you. I'll go into the LONG story of tries next time I'm there, this was the first time in the new building, try again on a C8, see what happens by then, I will probably be less bitter I was just happy that I could still get the cars, have 1100 status on both cars now.
