[MB ZR-1]

Hello all. I bought my 1990 ZR-1 last May and it was love at 1st sight. I've been a hugh vette fan since I was about 10. I always knew I would own one one day. The C4 was the vette of my generation and the ZR-1 was definitly the king. I researched and searched for 2 years before I finally decided on my car. I never thought I'd be able to get one, and thought I would buy a 96 Collectors Edition. Thing is once you own one you want another. A Z06 will be in my future plans.

Welcome aboard. I bought my '92 in July of '07. I've been a Vette fan since '55, I was born in '48. I fell in love with the ZR-1 in '89 when it was first announced. I never thought I would ever really own one. There was work to do, a wife to share time with, there were kids to raise etc. Mine came to me in a bizarre turn of events. I have never been happier about an auto purchase in my life. Enjoy the Beast, and save the wave.

Wow, in Alaska. Another vette owner with real short driving seasons. I bet you have the itch to drive yours as much as I have. I'll have to wait until May.

Yep, although the car can pass emissions, we have a law in Anchorage that allows us to register from Apr. 1 - Oct 31 without the test or the expense. Since I wouldn't consider driving in freezing conditions, I save the money for the tests and for insurance by registering it as a seasonal vehicle. My car actually came out of Toronto originally.

Glad to hear both of you are still able to enjoy your own King of the Hill in spite of the limited driving seasons. You'll just have to hang around here and talk Corvettes with us during those long cold winters.

Thanks, yes I sure enjoy driving in the shortened season. It just means I have to drive twice as fast as the less fortunate.
