Vette ownership
I want to buy a used Vette , but I was just wondering about cost after the purchase . Are parts more costly just because its a Vette ? Tune ups on a Vette cost more than a tune for other cars ? I want to pick up a 98 to 01 Vette , but future costs are a issue . Any answers would be really cool . Thanks , and I hope to be rolling some glass soon !
