When the ZR1 was released in 1990 it was the quickest regular production American car ever, beating out the 1987 Buick Grand National. They were rediculously expensive. GM High Tech Performance (my favorite mag) recently ran a stock one for their 10th Anniversary issue and the guy ran a low 13 on street tires. I forget the trap, about 108ish I think.
It wasn't really in the same class as a GNX if I'm correct? Isn't the GNX classified as a Sedan rather than a Coupe or something?

Yeah, but I was talking about all American cars. Until the ZR1, the fastest regular production American car was a boxy V6 family car, the turbo Regal. I don't think the GNX counts as regular production, they were an AMC McLaren aftermarket deal and only 547 were made. They ran ~13.3, the regular production turbo Regals ran ~13.8 or 13.9.

What you're talking about is also not a ZR1 motor. The car is Silver with Silver ZR1 wheels correct? 6-Speed? It's called the Collector Edition. That is the LT4 motor. 330 hp.

Unless he's got the Grand Sport, blue with black ZR1 wheels, and red hash marks on the side of the hood? Thats also an LT4.

Alright yea then its that. I didn't think it had 400hp.
