ZR1X, Not Zora!

GM isn’t ruling out the use of the Zora name in the future.

Corvette fans have been buzzing with anticipation over Chevrolet’s latest high-performance masterpiece: the 2026 ZR1X, but alongside the excitement, there’s been one big question on everyone’s mind: Why isn’t it called the Zora?

After all, Zora Arkus-Duntov, the “Father of the Corvette”, has long been associated with the dream of a mid-engine, world-class supercar. Wouldn’t this new AWD, twin-turbo hybrid beast be the perfect car to bear his name?

The ZR1 badge is already legendary in Corvette circles. First appearing in 1970 on the C3 as a factory race-ready package, and later resurrected with the iconic C4 and then the supercharged C6 and C7 monsters. The ZR1 name signals extreme performance, cutting-edge tech, and track prowess. […]

Enjoy a peek at some of the forthcoming features and special displays to be showcased at the 74th Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance — from the iconic Invictas that circumnavigated the world and set multiple speed records to Chrysler’s beloved Town and Country “woody” wagons and the forward-leaning creations of design great Virgil Exner. Sandra Button and members our Selection Committee also discuss the direct process of choosing our Best of Show car.

Locally, we trace the history of 17-Mile Drive, then we travel to the UK to tour its south coast and enjoy the Concours of Elegance at Hampton Court Palace. And we talk with celebrated Japanese car designers, an up-and-coming automotive archivist, and several leading enthusiasts.

Corvette Mike is proud to present one of the most iconic race-bred Corvettes ever built — the 1968 Le Mans Blue L88 Convertible once campaigned by James Garner’s American International Racing (AIR) team.

This isn’t just a Corvette — it’s a rare piece of motorsports and Hollywood history. One of just three factory-built L88 convertibles delivered in November 1967 for Garner’s team, this car was specially ordered through GM’s COPO program and features the legendary L88 engine with closed-chamber aluminum heads.

From the silver screen to the racetrack, this Corvette captures the fearless spirit of late-1960s American performance.
