    C4 Corvettes are so underrated. I believe the engines in the ZR-1 were manufactured by Mercury Marine!

    I own a 95 ZR-1. Looks just like this 94 you drove, black on black. For what i payed for my ZR-1 i feel like a criminal...It was soo cheap for what you all get. The LT-5 really steals the show. I still have not been in a car yet that does what LT-5 can do, magic. The LT-5 power band is fantastic, power every where. The real party trick is the 60-90 mph. You can catch SOO many people off guard its not even funny. Not to mention how easy it is to drive fast? Even down to a "hard" launch, just get the rpms to 2000, let the clutch out and hammer it. The cars fat tires and suspension do the rest. Also it corners?? If you want a 90's sports car that can do it all and "beat" 95% of the 90's sports car out there....This is your time machine. I say 95% because i truly believe the F40/F50, Diablo, 911 turbo, NSX, GTR, Supra or whatever other car you think of the 90-95 ZR-1 will keep up or completely beat its competition. Sorry ill shut up now. I love my 95 ZR-1. Just buy one already!

    Twin cam Chevy V8, designed by Lotus, manufactured by Mercury Marine, all wrapped in a chassis with performance that can give a good fight to modern cars. The LT5 still holds endurance records to this day. An absolute dream of mine just to drive.
  • @grishman5000
    I used to not care for the C4, but as time goes on, I love it more and more. This is a wonderful example of the pinnacle of that generation.
  • @EdD-ym6le
    Old school satisfaction . How can you not love rwd v8 manuals .
  • @WitchTrials92
    The C4 ZR-1 remains the ultimate Corvette for me personally no matter how faster GM makes the Corvette this is always going to be my King of the Hill Corvette.
  • @ic5217
    I could listen to this all day...
  • Had one of these in the 90's. Drove it cross country a few weeks after I bought it. Super comfy. Loved looking out at that long hood and those swooping wheel well humps. It was the fastest thing on the road back then. Lost it in a flood in front of my house a couple years later. I'll never forget that car.
  • @HonJazzz
    This is my dream car right here
  • @tadsworkshop
    The significance of that engine is lost on a lot of people, but it’s really a remarkable part of automotive, GM and SBC history.
  • @canto_v12
    Audio is on point, this engine sounds soooo rich and flavourful. This and the original Viper were the hotness back in the early and mid 90s U-S-A!
  • @sidefx996
    When these were introduced in 1990, Morrison Motorsports took one and set 5k km, 5k mile and 24 hr FIA World Land Speed Endurance records with it (they also ran an L98 with it for much of the time until it was shipped off for an auto show I believe) . Those records were only broken years later by a one off, purpose built prototype race car, and to the best of my knowledge still stand TO THIS DAY for a production car... I always find it hard to believe people make videos about this car and never mention that.
  • @mike569112
    When I was 18 my friend’s dad had one of these and we took it out one time. It was epic!
  • @LJGaldo
    Hagerty made a great video on the development of this. The heads were designed by Lotus!
  • @keiadam
    Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 made me fall in love with the C4 ZR-1. It sounds menacing in the intro!
