Most car enthusiasts are familiar with the name ZR1, whether it's from the original run as a high-performance variant of the 1970-72 Corvette C3 or its continuation during the C4, C6, C7, and C8 Corvette generations. But far fewer enthusiasts know about the ZR1's much rarer sibling, the Corvette ZR2. This hardcore, big-block-powered package was offered only during the 1971 model year, and a total of just 12 Corvette ZR2s were ever built — ten coupes and two convertibles. Today, a surviving '71 Corvette ZR2 can sell for over a million dollars.
