Deposit confirmed for the new King of the Hill!

Now to figure out what color I should go with!

My first choice is white, but I hear it's not available.

I think for this bad a$$ car there can only be one bad a$$ colour - BLACK.

Congrats on the up coming purchase

Ride would be my pleasure Arun, but after your 9 sec passes at the track, I doubt 600HP with 20" street tires is gonna do anything that will entertain you.

Gun metal grey's my first pick, but I'm going to make my final decision once all the color's are outlined. I've alway's loved black, but after each and every 3 black cars I owned, I swore never to buy another black car again. And I'm sure if you've owned one, you likely know what I'm talking about.

I can see why they're not offering it in white, and in a way, I'm glad also.
It'll keep the RF Z06 that much more exclusive.

ETA? In about a year.

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

I hear ya bro! and you're right I've been there and done that however I have a feeling that due to the absence of the grey colour from the market for so many years, it will be the colour of choice for many if not most ZR1 owners (and also Z06 owners when it is offered in 2009 as rumoured). I just think that of all the colours deserving to wrap the ZR1, black would be the one just cause none are as bad to the bone. But it is your choice in the end.

I too have owned three black cars and each time I swore never to do it again, but I keep coming back to them!

This time I really mean it though!

Not sure. It's currently having a LS7 440ci motor being built for it by Canadian Performance, but in the end, It's difficult to justify both cars.
If I can get a resonable offer for it, with or w/o the new motor, I'll obviously let it go, if not, I'll just keep it.

So everyone, if anyone's looking for a full Caravaggio C5 priced aggresively, let me know. There will be a very generous finders fee if anyone refer's a seller to me.
