Default Finally Ready to Sell ZR1

After selling and quickly buying back this past fall I think I'm finally ready to sell my 2009 ZR1. I bought the car from the first owner with 352 miles on the odometer. It just rolled over 1600 miles on the way to work the other day.

I'm working up the nerve to post it and gonna take my temperature in another couple days before deciding.

I can tell you this...

By the way you protect your car, you'll be heartbroken if you sell.

If I didn't have to sell it, there's no way I'd even consider it but that's just me. Good luck with whatever transpires.

I'd have to agree, don't sell it. Renovate and add to the hoard. Lol

Another lift doesn't sound bad.

Please let us know when you are good and ready to sell. Nothing like a well taken care ZR1.

FWIW, I think most if not all of the depreciation is out of these cars. If you agree, cost of ownership is pretty low.

I'm not sure about that, but time will tell. I think it's safe to say that about my C2 at the point.

911 Turbo (2001-2004) MSRP at $120k +/-
They can be had from $30-$50k, many in excellent shape and low miles.
I think ZR1 will run the same path.
For the money, performance, maintanance cost, I think these two are some of the best cars to get at this point.
