Goodbye ZL1, Hello ZR1

Just finished the deal and picked up a '12 Corvette ZR1. It's been a good time with the ZL1 and the build but time for a change....Here's my new ride!!!

Zr1 is awesome car. Drove my cousins zr1 and was hooked. Part of the reason I upgraded to a zl1 and lack of funds for a zr1.

Congrats! The ZR1 is a beast and one of the few cars I'd consider trading up for.

Thank you. I feel the same as you as far as trading. There's not many cars that I would have considered trading my ZL1 for but the ZR1 is one. So thankful the opportunity came my way!!!

Hey man, I did the same thing......sold my beloved ZL1 and got a ZR1. ZL1 was a great car but the ZR1 is an unbelievable beast. I love the white!.....but when it came to the Vette I had to get red! I still check this forum out because I really like the Camaro group......most guys seem cool on the Corvette forum, but there are a few that have a superiority complex!

Just out of curiosity, what's the lifespan on those CC rotors and brakes? Also, how much would it run you to replace them when they're worn out?
