Corvettes for Sale: Hennessey ZR700 2011 Corvette ZR1 on Bring a Trailer

The ultimate C6 is no doubt the so-called “Blue Devil” ZR1, so what do you call this 2011 Corvette ZR1 that’s been upgraded even further with a Hennessey ZR700 package?

The ZR1, of course, made 638 horsepower with its supercharged 6.2-liter LS9 V8 engine, the most powerful automobile ever sold by GM during its five-year run. But this “new and improved” edition increases that figure to a whopping 705 (and 717 lb-ft of torque), thanks to enhancements from Texas-based Hennessey Performance, and reportedly has a top speed of 212 mph and a quarter-mile time of 11.3 seconds @ 136 mph.

Now, someone has an opportunity to buy one of these ZR1s through an auction on Bring a Trailer, where the highest bid so far is $72,000. Six days remain for that figure to keep climbing.

This car – with a Hennessey serial number of 11 – has been driven only 10,626 miles and remains in like-new condition inside and out, besides the aforementioned ZR700 package.

That Hennessey upgrade, by the way, includes a revised supercharger pulley and air intake system, stainless steel long-tube exhaust headers, high-flow catalytic converters, upgraded intercooler system, and reprogrammed engine management computer. A new fuel pump was installed this year.

Produced from 2009 to 2013, with a total of 4,695 units built at Bowling Green, the ZR1 was easily spotted with its clear polycarbonate engine cover that allowed onlookers to get a look at the top of this behemoth without raising the hood. Other features include composite and carbon-fiber throughout its widebody, aluminum frame, six-speed manual transmission, massive Brembo brakes with tell-tale blue calipers, and Selective Magnetic Ride Control.

Originally introduced in 2009 with a base price of $103,300, the MSRP had climbed to $110,750 by the time this Torch Red over Ebony 2011 model was produced. It’s one of just 806 built that model year and includes the optional $10,000 3ZR package that included custom-wrapped leather interior, nav radio, Bose 9-speaker system, memory package, heated sport seats, head-up display, power telescopic steering wheel, and home remote.

Ironically, the 62-year-old seller says the upgraded ZR1 has “basically just been taken to weekend shows on nice weekends” and has not been tracked or raced during his six years of ownership.
