…Motorcar Classics of Farmingdale, NY and their picture series entitled Stock Number 1999. MCC is one of the finest purveyors of collectible vehicles in the country, and their photo booth is nigh unrivaled in the dealership space. Just look at the spread that they put together for Stock 1999, a 1,595-mile Shadow Gray Metallic over Kalahari 2019 ZR1 with a 7-speed manual and the “Big Wing” ZTK Package; it is, in a word, stunning!
It is ZR1 number 2,245 out of the 2,953-unit run enjoyed by the grand finale of front-engine Corvettes. Even though the gallery looks like a million dollars, the best news about this show-stopper is Motorcar Classics’ asking price of $189,900. Compared to the original MSRP of $139,520, that might sound steep, but in today’s market, where stick-shifted ZRs with the Sebring Orange Design Package regularly exceed – camera zooms in while the “Dr. Evil” pinky is deployed – a quarter of a million dollars, this flawless specimen actually looks like a decent deal!
The only option missing from this 3ZR-equipped beauty are the Competition Seats, but one look at the quilted Kalahari headliner, and you’ll forget all about those while you are cruising in the more comfortable thrones. Our sole gripe with this car is that it is almost too clean; this car deserves to be driven, but its current state of museum-quality presentation could possibly give the next owner pause about ever taking their new baby out onto the dirty, imperfect streets of their hometown.
There seems to be a lot of very desirable ZR1s hitting the market since October 26th, as people are apparently making garage room to cure their Z06 fever, but we think that parting ways with any 755-horse monsters at this point might be short-sighted. The “Batwing” ZR1 is a freight train of appreciation that will likely only continue to make current owners money for the foreseeable future.

Damn, what a car. Beautiful.
Once non driving collectors and resellers corner a particular market, the prices just go stupid no matter how you try to spin it.
