Description
There are Low Miles No Miles Corvettes…and then there are cars that were destined to become collectibles the day they left the showroom. This 1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 falls firmly into that category, showing just 58 miles shown and representing one of the most preserved examples of Chevrolet's legendary "King of the Hill."
Vehicle Overview
Finished in Black over a Black leather interior, this 1990 Corvette ZR-1 is powered by its original 5.7-liter LT5 DOHC V8 producing 375 horsepower, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. The odometer currently shows an astonishing 58 miles shown.
Developed in partnership with Lotus and built by Mercury Marine, the LT5 engine transformed the Corvette into a world-class performance car capable of competing with the best Europe had to offer. Featuring dual overhead camshafts, 32 valves, and technology far ahead of its time, the ZR-1 earned its place as one of the most important Corvettes ever produced.
This example remains 100% original throughout and has been preserved as a true collector-grade automobile since new.
Story
According to the seller, this ZR-1 has remained with its original owner since new and has spent its life as part of a carefully maintained collection.
Unlike most performance cars that eventually accumulate miles and modifications, this example was preserved from the beginning. The result is a vehicle that remains remarkably close to the condition in which it left the showroom more than three decades ago.
The car has also achieved NCRS Certification, further supporting its authenticity, originality, and preservation.
Examples like this rarely surface, particularly with documented one-owner history and mileage that remains in the double digits.
Condition
As expected for a collector-grade example showing only 58 miles, the car presents exceptionally well throughout.
The exterior retains its original paint with no reported history of bodywork, while the interior remains highly preserved and reflective of the car's minimal use.
The vehicle is reported to be completely rust-free and 100% original. In 2022, the fuel system was serviced as part of routine preservation maintenance.
Overall, this is an extraordinarily original ZR-1 that represents one of the finest surviving examples of Chevrolet's flagship performance car from the era.

Letter From The LMNM Team
Some cars are rare.
Some cars are low mileage.
And then there are cars like this.
The ZR-1 wasn't just another Corvette package. It was Chevrolet's statement to the world. The LT5 engine was unlike anything America had produced before it—a hand-built, Lotus-designed, Mercury Marine-assembled masterpiece that completely changed what people thought a Corvette could be.
And while every ZR-1 is special, finding one with 58 miles is something else entirely.
This car wasn't simply owned. It was preserved.
The black-on-black combination only adds to the presence. It looks every bit as serious today as it did in 1990 when the ZR-1 sat at the very top of the Corvette hierarchy.
For Corvette enthusiasts, this is the kind of car that rarely becomes available. For collectors, it's the kind of car that defines a collection.
This isn't just a low-mile Corvette.
It's a 58-mile time capsule from the era when the ZR-1 earned the nickname "King of the Hill."
