Seld employed. Trust me, I don't make as much as people think. I paid $18.7K for the vette, $950 shipped for the rims and tires, $68 to lower it, and I'll probably do an exhaust mod that'll cost me $100 or so and throw a sub and amp in back.

I did drop a ton of cash in my camaro last year (about $30K), but I sold my GN for $20.5K, so that helped.

Also my wife makes good money, and I've been smart with my money. I don't have any debt except for the house and now the vette. Bought my first house young so I made decent money on it when I sold. I don't spend alot on anything else either, no fancy clothes, no $10,000 stereo, no lavish vacations, etc.

This is me sticking my fingers in my ears and yelling "LA LA LA I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!!". You guys are the devil!

If I had a nickel for every time I've heard "So when will it be twin turbo'd?" since I bought the car I could damn near afford it!

The most I'd ever do is H/C and stall. And spray. Maybe a tranny. Or.....

I'm gonna go drive my Camaro now to remind me that one fast car is enough.....

That is definitely a mouthwatering 'Vette. You're one lucky dude to be able to open the garage on EITHER of those beauties, let alone both!!
