A supercharged 2011 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 built for serious track duty is now for sale at Henderson Auctions, listed as lot #123 in the upcoming Collector Motor Series sale. This orange-on-black ZR1 pairs Corvette’s most potent factory drivetrain with an aggressive time-attack transformation, making it one of the more eye-catching American performance lots headed across the block.
The C6-generation ZR1 remains the fastest, most powerful Corvette General Motors had built at the time of its debut. A supercharged 6.2-liter LS9 V8 sent 638 horsepower through a six-speed manual, wrapped in a chassis stiffened with a carbon fiber hood, roof, and fenders. Corvette engineers benchmarked it against exotics twice its price at the Nurburgring, and it held its own. Buyers curious about this particular example can browse the full photo set and current bidding in the auction listing.
This particular ZR1 has clearly seen serious track time, and the mods reflect it. Finished in bold orange over a set of lightweight black wheels, it wears a deep carbon front splitter, side-exit rocker panels, a fixed rear wing on tall uprights, and roll-bar-equipped cockpit with a racing seat, all pointing to a car built for lapping days rather than boulevard cruising. Henderson Auctions lists the car under VIN 1G1YN2DT0B5800543 with additional details still being finalized, so serious bidders should check the current listing directly for the latest updates.
The sale itself is worth circling on the calendar. Henderson Auctions will run its Collector Motor Series sale on Saturday, September 26, 2026, at the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum in Birmingham, Alabama, timed to coincide with the SRO GT Car Races weekend at the track next door. Preview hours run from 5 to 7 p.m. before the auction, and bidding is already open online, with the ZR1 currently sitting at a high bid of $3,250. Interested collectors can register and place bids through the auction platform.
For collectors who want a Corvette that is ready to turn laps right out of the trailer rather than needing a build sheet, this ZR1 is worth a close look before the gavel falls. Full photos, current bid status, and registration details are all available now on the Henderson Auctions listing, and with the sale date approaching fast, interested bidders should not wait to get in on the action.
Henderson Auctions Collector Motor Series is open for consignments and bidder registration.
