Interesting. I found my Z06 was adjusted up by about $100/yr after the initial estimate. However, a year later now my 18 Z06 went down and is even less than my 13 ZL1. I don't know.

Tell me, Michigan is the highest in the country as is our registration. My C6ZR was more than my C7Z. Can't wait for the arrival of your new Beast. Are you trading the Z?

Awesome, we can compare Z vs ZR,. Another thing Michigan does not have the trade in allowance on sales tax : I should have moved prior to the Z's arrival......... Keep us posted

California is the same way with tax. You need to keep these expensive cars a long time or the state becomes very rich off your tax payments. 8% is the norm in most cities

Nyvette story is amazing.
Cost of Z0 = $100K.
Cost of ZR = $150K
If limits, deductible etc are apple to apple I think this may be an initial one year deal as the ins. co doesn't
have any data on the new model.
Or there's a mistake, OP may want to may sure all is in order in case there is a claim made.

All coverage mimics the coverage I have on my Z06...I could have sworn I saw someone else post on the forum the same thing happened to them...don’t recall who now though

That's cause the ins co knows you'll go slower with the faster car, you know....like how youre slower in the Z than the 1st C7 you had...
