Like it has been said by a few here if your not going to do any serious modding you should get the Z. If you plan on modding it a lot then get the FRC. I was in the same boat as you after my last trip to Iraq I could have bought pretty much what ever I wanted. I knew I was going to mod it and bought a coupe. BTW USAA rules!

I might be going there... I got into Penn State and would be a Cadet but my current school fucked me and didn't withdraw me from a class I wasn't even eligable to take so I may NOT be going to PSU anymore, if not. I'm volunteering to go. Get some money, do something worth a damn for something and hopefully come back in one piece so I can buy whatever I want with price not being an object.

He's probably right, with my wife (28) and I (24), for an '07 leased Murano and my '04 C5 I just added, it's $105/m full coverage on both. I had been quoted $4/m more for an '04 ZO6. This is with Geico.

Insurance is priced on your location and city you live near. When I came home I moved from the shoreline of CT to central CT near Hartford and my premiums went up slightly. Its all in where you live if you have a clean record.
