Set to cross the block at Mecum Auctions on September 26, this 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Convertible combines extreme performance with an exceptionally low 655 miles. Finished in black and equipped with an extensive selection of carbon-fiber and track-oriented options, the car represents one of the most formidable configurations of Chevrolet’s modern Corvette lineup.
The C8 ZR1 is powered by a 5.5-liter twin-turbocharged V-8 producing a remarkable 1,064 horsepower, paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. The ZTK Performance Track Package further sharpens the chassis with performance-focused suspension tuning and Magnetic Selective Ride Control. A front-lift system with height adjustment and memory adds everyday usability without compromising the car’s aggressive track capability.
Braking hardware is equally serious. Carbon-ceramic rotors are clamped by 10-piston front and six-piston rear calipers, finished in bright red. Visible carbon-fiber wheels are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 ultra-high-performance tires, while aerodynamic upgrades include a carbon-fiber high-wing spoiler, dive planes, tall hood spoiler, carbon-fiber splitter and rocker panels. The exterior is complemented by a carbon-fiber roof and additional exposed-carbon accents, while the rear Corvette script is finished in Torch Red. Black exhaust tips, lug nuts and wheel locks reinforce the car’s understated but purposeful appearance.
Inside, an Adrenaline Red leather cabin features heated and ventilated GT2 bucket seats with eight-way power adjustment, a heated steering wheel, carbon-fiber steering-wheel trim and paddle shifters. Sueded microfiber surfaces, Carbon Fiber Interior Trim Level 2 and the Stealth Interior Trim Package add a distinctly performance-oriented character.
Technology is extensive, with a 12.7-inch center display, 14-inch Driver Information Center and 6.6-inch auxiliary touchscreen. Google built-in, wireless phone projection, a Bose Performance Series 14-speaker audio system, head-up display, wireless charging and a Performance Data and Video Recorder are all included. Driver-assistance equipment encompasses Rear Park Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Side Blind Zone Alert, Forward Collision Alert, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning and Automatic Emergency Braking.
Garage-kept and accompanied by premium travel bags, a Corvette-branded indoor cover, cargo organizers, protective liners and a roadside safety package, this ZR1 Convertible offers an unusually comprehensive specification. With just 655 miles, it arrives at auction as a virtually new example of Chevrolet’s 1,064-hp flagship Corvette.
