I work hard. Make a nice living. Follow the rules. I speed a little but other than that I stay within the law. I don't see myself ever being able to buy a ZR1. But after watching this and other videos I think there is a chance, no, a VERY good chance I just might have to steal a ZR1 and "drive it like I stole it." I think it would be worth it. First offense I probably wouldn't do any jail time.


So all you ZR1 owners better keep your car locked up tight. If you come out one morning and yours is missing, send me a PM. I will reply in a few days.

Those seats DO look nice! They must realize that they have to have those to compete in Europe.
Listening to the video I heard the word "schnell!" several times and Murcielago (as in more expensive and slower??)

Default What seats?

Yeah, that was the first thing I noticed, after of course how much fun the guy was having. If those are euro GM seats maybe they can be ordered? Or would it screw up the side impact airbags. Hmm.

We may have a deal. Just drive her like you stole her and she will be happy.

P.S. Like the vette, she likes to be driven a lot.

I like what he had to say mid-video.

O wait, I don't understand German.

He was driving the hell out of it!

Nice Vid.

Would be nice if GM gave the ZR1 (or better, all Vettes since the C5) worthy seats over here, but no, they don´t..

These are aftermarket ones, installed by the dealer Geiger Cars perhaps...

Best, Bernd

His facial expressions tell most of the story, but we need some translators in here.
