Yeah..make sure you check the insurance rate...will end up paying more for that than the car...ah yes to be in my 20's again... ! While I was shopping for the vette...was contemplating buy a 81' Ferrari 308 GTB. Called my insurance guy, he said..let me go way to the back of the book Joe..would have started at around 2k/year to drive the Ferrari! Doh!...argh! :lolg:

Have you priced insurance??
Depending on the year (I want a blue/white strip and that was only in '96-'97), it will cost me $100-$112 per month. :thumbs:

:D When I bought my '91 10yrs ago I asked the insurance co. what it would cost to insure a ZR1 in my name (knowing there was no way I could afford one). He called me back and said it was cost $6,000 per just to drive the car not counting car notes!! :eek: :eek: :eek:
