Dont know, but I paid $555 every 6 months for my SS, and I pay $396 every 6 months for the vette. I'm 26 with a clean driving record.

2000 Camaro SS $92.5 a month

2000 FRC $66 a month

Vette F T W.

I use USAA

An 04 Vette for less that 20K that's unheard of in OHIO! VETTE for sure.

I stay out of vettes for a reason... I wanna stay happy with my car

My view on it - if I had the cash back when I was shopping, it would be a vette, no contest, unless I really needed the two rear seats. Vettes handle better, are much smoother, and quieter (even usually far less rattles in the interior too).

are you serious??? 860 6 mo. for the vette??? I pay 1900 im 21 for my ws6 and a 96 camaro nuts, it was reduced cause I put my girlfriend as domestic partner otherwise id be paying more... and i shopped around esurance was the cheapest... probably cause im mexican ! hahaha,

I love my ws6 is why I got it, I like corvette's too but I see them everywhere now, and I like having the back seat, when me and my friends go out we can go in my car, if I had a vette it would stay in the garage.

I insulate my whole interior w/ Frost King + Green Pad from Home Depot, total cost = 30$
and BMW/Mercedes are jealous of how quiet my car is, that is until I open the cutout

What's up with that interior? **** that's hard on the eyes.

I just transported back to the late 70s. If they threw some buttons on those seats, I could put them in my lounge.
