If you've watched ESPN's The Last Dance, you know the moment. Episode eight. The fax has been sent. Michael Jordan is back. And as he makes his return to the world, he steps out of a Ruby Red 1993 Corvette ZR-1. That exact car just found its next home — the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky.The museum announced the addition of Jordan's ZR-1 to its Pop Culture and Corvette: An American Love Affair exhibition, and it's hard to think of a more fitting pairing. A once-in-a-generation athlete. A once-in-a-generation American sports car. Both icons of the same era. The Corvette ZR-1 Itself Is No Footnote Corvette MuseumJordan didn't drive just any Corvette. The 1993 ZR-1 was the apex predator of its day — America's answer to the European supercar establishment. For 1993, Chevrolet squeezed even more out of the ZR-1's all-aluminum LT5 V8, bumping output from 375 to 405 horsepower and quietly surpassing the 400-hp target GM had originally set for itself. In an era before turbos took over everything, that number meant something.Corvette MuseumHis example also carries the 40th Anniversary Package — RPO Z25 in Corvette-speak — which meant Ruby Red paint head to toe, matched by Ruby Red sport seats inside. It's a striking combination, and one that makes the car immediately recognizable to anyone who's seen the documentary. Where To See MJ's Corvette Corvette MuseumThe ZR-1 is now on loan to the museum through Spring 2027, displayed inside the iconic Skydome as part of the Pop Culture and Corvette exhibition — an immersive collection of more than a dozen significant Corvettes spanning film, television, music, video games, and celebrity culture. Jordan's car joins nearly half a dozen ZR-1s on display spanning multiple generations, giving visitors a rare chance to see how the nameplate evolved over the decades.Corvette MuseumAdmission to the exhibition is included with regular museum entry.For fans of Jordan, The Last Dance, or just great American machinery, this one is worth the trip to Bowling Green. The greatest basketball player of all time had good taste in cars — and now you can see the proof in person.
