A Corvette worthy of the name
While the C8 Corvette may be making headlines as the record-setting, supercar-killing, mid-engined American monster that it is, the C7 Corvette still holds a special place in enthusiasts' hearts. The C7 was likely the last front-engined Corvette, a formula that carried the nameplate for seven generations, and this particular one, with a mere 2,290 miles on the odometer, is for sale on Exotic Car Trader. You can check out the listing by clicking here.
This example is C7 ZR1, the highest-performance variant unveiled for the 2019 model year, which was also the C7's last year of production. It's finished in Torch Red with Carbon Flash accents and sits on ZR1 Carbon Flash-painted wheels with contrasting red-painted brake calipers. The interior carries the carbon fiber treatment, with a carbon fiber instrument panel, and a leather-wrapped carbon fiber steering wheel. Optional equipment on this one includes the Sueded Microfiber-Wrapped Upper Trim Package and the 3ZR package, which adds a Bose 10-speaker sound system, navigation, Performance Data Recorder, heated and ventilated seats, and front curb-view cameras.

Chevrolet did not hold back with the ZR1
Being the most powerful C7 Corvette you could get, the ZR1 used an all-new 6.2L LT5 V8 engine equipped with a 2.6L Eaton supercharger that was 52% larger than the one used on the Z06 variant. A new fuel injection system was also added to feed the hungry beast along with an upgraded crankshaft, bringing the C8 ZR1's figures to 755 hp, 715 lb⋅ft of torque, and a 214.88 mph top speed. That engine could be mated to either a 7-speed Tremec TR-6070 manual transmission with rev-matching technology or an 8-speed GM 8L90 automatic transmission with paddle shifters.
Keeping all of that power planted was plenty of aero equipment developed in collaboration with Pratt & Miller's Corvette racing team. It features a chassis-mounted rear wing, a front splitter, and a new front underbody spoiler. The ZR1 also features an enhanced cooling system, which includes large vents in the front bumpers and on the hood, a larger intercooler, and four additional radiators, for a total of thirteen. That larger cooling system also makes the ZR1 heavier than the Z06, at 3,560 lb. Stopping power is provided by the carbon ceramic brakes, while the double wishbone suspension system with magnetic ride control keeps you comfy off the track.

Final thoughts
The fact that the Corvette C7 ZR1 is still a machine to be reckoned with speaks volumes about how much passion and character Chevrolet put into it. This is definitely one of the better examples available on the market right now, with incredibly low miles and an extensive list of options to go along with the already mindblowing standard equipment. What might let this one down in the eyes of some enthusiasts is the fact that it's equipped with the automatic transmission, something that also drops its value on the second-hand market. If that doesn't bother you, though, this one could be yours for $185,000. Look at it this way, that's not a bad price to pay for the kind of looks and performance that the Corvette C7 ZR1 provides. Supercars beware.

Prodrive's Subaru WRC Homage Can Be Yours for a Cool Million Bucks

Get The Drive's daily newsletter Email address Sign Up Thank you! Terms of Service & Privacy Policy. A few years back, Subaru and long-time tuner and rally supporter Prodrive partnered up to produce a white-hot tribute to the WRC97 rally car and its street-prowling equivalent, the iconic 22B STI. Despite its now-retro looks, the Prodrive P25 may look fairly unassuming, and its 450-horsepower output, while healthy even by modern Subaru standards, isn't lighting the world on fire either. But if you look a little closer, you'll begin to understand why this tightly packaged rally homage sold out at its sticker price of $600,000. If you think that's a lot of scratch for a millennial's Gran Turismo fever dream come true, then you'll be appalled by the P25's depreciation curve. In fact, that's not even the correct term; try appreciation curve. This example for sale on Race Cars For You was listed for 700,000 pounds—$932,736 U.S. Yep, they want nearly a million bucks for something with last-gen pony car power and a silhouette from 1997. Here's the thing: It might be worth it. Both Jerry and I have driven this thing. At risk of coming off like the elder millennial that I am, I have to admit that it borders on sublime. The brap-brap of the turbocharged 2.5-liter boxer is peak WRC nostalgia, and everything about the chassis and suspension feels beautifully dialed in. Sure, the WRX and STI (RIP) were always traditionally marketed as street-going rally cars, but in the P25's case, it's far closer to the literal truth. Set aside the raw power figure for a second, because it's really the least-interesting figure on the P25's spec sheet. Let's start on the other side of the equation. Thanks to its extensive use of carbon fiber and other weight-saving materials, the P25 weighs just 2,500 pounds. That's 5.6 pounds per horsepower—50% leaner than a C8 Corvette. There's no manual gearbox, because that's not what the rally cars used. Yep, this sucker has a sequential. It's a bit strange to use coming from a traditional automatic (or even the typical street-car sequential) gearbox, but hey, race car! The example Jerry and I got to sling around Milford was fitted with standard buckets and three-point seat belts, along with a somewhat subdued set of wheels. This buyer sprung for the optional racing-style seats and Schroth harnesses, plus the throwback gold wheels. Yep, that's exactly how I'd buy it.

This Is the No. 1 U.S. State for a Road Trip Thanks to Its Safety, Low Congestion, and Pancake-flat Highways

If you love a good road trip, then chances are you're always plotting out your next route and all the exciting things you get to pull over and see along the way. But before you go, you should know that some states are better than others to drive through on your getaway. And if you hate traffic, you may want to stay on the mainland. In January, WalletHub released its data analyzing the best and worst states to drive through in the U.S. To figure out which states have the best commuting conditions, it compared all states across four key metrics: the cost of owning and maintaining a car (which included the average price of gas), the average traffic patterns and infrastructure, road safety, and access to vehicles. Each metric was then graded on a 100-point scale, and each state was given a weighted average to calculate its overall score. After looking at all that information, it named Kansas the best state for driving. "Kansas is the best state for drivers, due in large part to the quality and safety of its roads," the findings stated. It added that the state also scored the third-highest for road quality in the U.S. and added that the roads are 'flatter than a pancake' for added safety. "Kansas has the sixth-most roadway miles per capita in the country, yet its residents enjoy the seventh-lowest average commute time by car, at just over 20 minutes," it added. "That suggests that while the population may be spread out, people tend to live close to their jobs and don't get stuck in traffic often. Since Kansas has a small population and lots of farmland, it makes sense that it has the seventh-lowest traffic congestion rate, too." Joining Kansas at the top of the list is Idaho in second due to the "success it's had in decreasing deaths on the road. Between 2021 and 2022 (the most recent years for which data is available), the state's traffic fatality rate decreased by nearly 20 percent, the highest percentage in the country," the findings stated. Idaho also has the fifth-lowest prevalence of speeding and the fourth-lowest prevalence of harsh braking, making it a pretty safe place for driving. And rounding out the top three spots is Indiana, which has the second-best road quality and the ninth-lowest traffic congestion in the nation. "It also takes road safety very seriously, with the fourth-strictest driving laws. These factors have helped improve driving conditions in the state, with traffic fatalities declining by nearly 17 percent between 2021 and 2022, the third-highest percentage," WalletHub noted. As for where you may want to avoid driving, Hawaii came in last due to its frequent rain, few maintenance shops, and high gas prices. But, if you're driving around in Hawaii, odds are your vacation is still going pretty well anyway. See all the results at

Best Car Shipping Companies Of 2025

Overview Easy Auto Ship stands out as the best car shipping company overall, scoring 4.8 out of 5 for its various affordable shipping options. Founded in 2013, the company has expanded to cover all 50 states and ships internationally. While it serves as a broker instead of a carrier, Easy Auto Ship fully vets its partners before allowing them to ship vehicles. Learn more: Easy Auto Ship review We picked Easy Auto Ship due partly to its customer-first approach to many of its offerings, like its 30-day pricing guarantee, GPS tracking and free car wash upon delivery. Why We Like It Besides the perks above, we appreciate that Easy Auto Ship claims to have no hidden fees and provides an extra $100,000 in contingent auto insurance. A $150 cash discount is another bonus worth mentioning. Additionally, it offers free cancellation, price matching and a service guarantee. What We Don't Like Easy Auto Ship requires a $250 deposit, which isn't ideal. However, it does offer a pretty generous cancellation policy. We'd also like additional features like a 24/7 customer service line and a mobile app. Who It's Best For Easy Auto Ship can be a good option for many customers. It offers both long- and short-distance moving, and open and enclosed shipping. While prices tend to skew a little higher, the value is still there.
