Corvette ZR1X Price: MSRP, Trims & Real-World Cost

The ZR1X sits at the top of the Corvette lineup. Chevrolet sells it as a coupe or a convertible in two equipment levels, 1LZ and 3LZ, so four versions make up the price ladder. Because it is the most expensive Corvette, small choices, such as a body style or one wheel option, move the total by amounts that would be a full option package on a cheaper car.

All four rows are 2027 MSRP and exclude destination. The 1LZ Coupe is the lowest at $224,900. The 3LZ Coupe follows at $235,900, the 1LZ Convertible at $234,900, and the 3LZ Convertible at $245,900.

Two patterns show up in that list. The 3LZ level costs more than the 1LZ on the same body, and the convertible costs more than the coupe at the same level. Read side by side, the equipment level and the roof each carry their own price step. Check Chevrolet's build tool to see which features the 3LZ adds, since that decides whether the step is worth it for you.

Chevrolet's announced starting price for the 2027 ZR1X is $227,395. That figure is not the same as the lowest trim row above, which is $224,900. The two may come from different points in time or different sources, so treat the announced price as a launch figure and the trim list as the more detailed breakdown. When the two disagree, the configurator on Chevrolet's site is the one to trust.

A destination charge is added to the sticker on top of MSRP. For the 2027 Corvette lineup it is $2,495, and the ZR1X trim rows above do not include it.

Options stack on top of that. The visible carbon fiber wheels (SU1) are listed for the ZR1 and ZR1X at $15,995. One option at that price shows how fast extras add up on this car. Other options depend on the trim, so use the build tool for the exact car.

The ZR1X's starting price rose by $15,200 from the 2026 to the 2027 model year. If you are comparing a 2026 car to a 2027 one, check which model year each price belongs to, and whether equipment or trim names changed as well.

The ZR1X is a low-volume halo model, and demand for cars like it has often exceeded supply. Dealers that receive allocations may sell at sticker, while some add a markup. That markup belongs to the dealer, not to Chevrolet, and it is negotiable. Request an itemized quote that separates MSRP, destination, and any dealer-added charges. Be wary of quotes that bundle everything into one number.

• Insurance. Exotic-level values and repair costs affect premiums. Get quotes from your insurer before you order.
• Fuel and energy. Ask Chevrolet and your dealer how the ZR1X is fueled, and whether it needs any special equipment at home.
• Tires and brakes. High-performance parts wear faster and cost more to replace.
• Registration and taxes. These scale with the vehicle's price in many states.
• Warranty and service. Ask about coverage terms and where service is available.

Lenders look at your credit, down payment, and term. Manufacturer incentives on a car like this are uncommon but can change, so check current offers on Chevrolet's website and with your dealer. For individual financial advice, consult a licensed professional.

Build your configuration on the Chevrolet Corvette site and ask a dealer for a written quote that shows MSRP and fees separately.
