Default 1st 2009 CORVETTE ZR1 arrives at Wilson-Niblett Chevrolet!!!

Well I just happened to drop by Wilson-Niblett Chevrolet last night and there she was in the showroom. It had just arrived a few hours earlier and of course it's already SOLD. So if you had any doubts as to what colour would be the first to arrive or which dealer was going to receive the 1st ZR1 this should answer your questions, Blade Silver and Wilson-Niblett Chevrolet. Inside the car were all the lower carbon fibre pieces that are dealer installed and the car itself still had some plastic wrapping on it. Well someone's going to be happy when they receive that call that their ZR1 has arrived.

Very cool.

If it was my car there would be no way I'd let it be in the showroom. to many people pawing over it.

Having said that, I guess I should stop by and have a look see!

I'm sure the owner will have her out at the Wilson-Niblett show and shine next spring; along with our good buddy Kenzie and his band. With any luck, we might even see her sooner.

..from WN's Blog,

First Canadian ZR1

There has been a lot of excitement generated over the new ZR1 Corvette and when they will start to arrive in select Chevrolet Dealerships. We have been eager to get them to our clients and very excited about this stellar supercar ourselves.

Yesterday, just after lunch, our first ZR1 arrived at Wilson Niblett Chevrolet Corvette. To our knowledge, this is the first saleable ZR1 that has been delivered to a Canadian Corvette Dealer. As Canada’s #1 Corvette Dealer for over three decades, we are proud and extremely excited to have received the first Canadian ZR1

The Chevy Enthusiast



Looks really nice. Someone is getting a super RIDE.
zBill.
