We present one of the final American supercars of the front-engine Corvette lineage, a 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Convertible finished in Arctic White over Jet Black leather. Showing 12,470 miles, this LT5-powered flagship represents peak C7 performance, blending supercharged power, aero aggression, and open-top driving in the most extreme road-going Corvette ever built.

The Corvette nameplate has carried the torch for American performance since 1953, evolving from a small batch sports car into a world-class supercar rivalling European exotics at a fraction of the cost. With the C8 generation adopting the mid-rear engine layout, the C7 ZR1 represents the final form of the front-engine Corvette lineage, and for 2019, Chevrolet did something unprecedented: they built it as a Convertible. This generation also marked the first time a ZR1 could be ordered with an automatic transmission, expanding usability without diluting performance.

 

Under the massive carbon fiber hood sits the LT5 6.2-liter supercharged V8 producing 755 horsepower and 715 pound-feet of torque, supported by a cooling system with thirteen heat exchangers to control temperatures under track load. Compared to the 650-horsepower Z06, the C7 ZR1 receives a larger 2.65-liter Eaton TVS supercharger, increased intercooler capacity, model-specific aero, a more aggressive front fascia, and the signature carbon fibre hood cutout that exposes the charge system for clearance and thermal extraction.

Finished in Arctic White with a blue ragtop and a Jet Black leather interior, this particular ZR1 Convertible captures the visual presence of America’s flagship sports car with chrome finish aluminum ZR1 wheels, carbon fiber splitter, skirts, and wing, establishing immediate identity. With 0 to 60 miles per hour in about 2.9 seconds and a top speed above 210 miles per hour, the ZR1 outguns many European six and seven-figure exotics while retaining Corvette approachability and everyday comfort.

 

The open top format adds drama rarely available at this power level, pairing LT5 induction howl from the quad exhausts, with top-down theatre to create an experience that sets the Convertible apart from the Coupe. The interior blends Alcantara, carbon trim, a digital cluster with analog supporting gauges, and features a hidden locking infotainment cubby.

This example has been maintained with a recent cooling system, water pump, A C, and fluid service, and CarFax confirms three prior owners: Missouri in 2019, Florida in 2020, and Georgia in 2022. As the final supercharged front-engine Corvette and the last ZR1 of its era, the Convertible is positioned for long-term desirability. For collectors wanting the ultimate sendoff to the Corvette's front-engine chapter, this car represents the top rung in power, rarity, and celebration of the C7 legacy. The digital window sticker is available under the photo set and shows an original sticker price of $132,785.
