How many ZR Competitions have been built?
I'm trying to decide if I want to move into a sit down boat.

I am not sure how many have been built. The largest grouping seems to be the 2002-2004 range when they were dominating the F-2 class. I am pretty sure 2007 is when they introduced the quad step. There is a slight difference between the two boats. I have a 2003 Comp. and I can tell you, if you don't mind not having a cabin, you will not find a better handling v bottom....period. I have been in the quad step Comps. and they are a tick faster in the calm water but do seem to give up a little handling. My boat turns like it is on rails, flies straight off any wave and accelerates like a demon. All you have to do is look to the P1 racing in Europe. Team 26 has the sister to my boat, a 2003 Comp. and last year dominated the circuit and just last weekend set a new divisional world record. Not bad for a 7 year old boat.

I sat in the orange one and thought the cockpit was tight and I am 5'11/ 180. Maybe you just get used to it but I was shocked when I got behind the wheel. Maybe when I think sit down my mind thinks of cats with the wide beam/large amount of cockpit space between rows.
But both the red 700 one Pier 57 had and the blue/white one Shogren had were awesome machines for very reasonable prices....

Yes the cats have a more open feel but I rode in two Gladiators before buying my Comp. and they had far less room than the Comp. The back seat in the Glad., being a bench, has a more open feel but it is also very exposed (low freeboard and minimal wind protection) and very upright almost to the point of being uncomfortable.
