Just called my insurance agent to see what my insurance would be if I got rid of my Ranger and got a 1999 FRC. Turns out it would go up a whopping $90/year...man do I need to finish up with my thesis and get a job! I was real happy to hear that...I was worried it would go up like $100 a month!

I'm 25 and married BTW...my insurance dropped a ton in general when that happened!

Glad to hear that. My 2001 A4 Coupe insurance is much less than my 2000 ricer daily driver - go figure.

But then I'm 41

While it depends on your record and where you live, these cars are not ungodly expensive to insure. Sure makes it nice.

Thought this was going to be another insurance spam thread.

I had a 2002 Z28 a few years ago and was paying $145 p/mth at age 38 with a very clean record. When I bought my first vette ('01 vert) my ins went down to $102 p/mth. Now with the '03 coupe at age 41 it's down to $78 p/mth. Hey with this kind of pattern maybe it's time to look into a C6.....No on second thought I'm keeping my C5.
