I like them. I want to test drive a 7 speed transmission on a gas motor.. Beautiful car. I really want to try to save up everything I can to grab a stock 6.2 off the floor. http://www.chevrolet.com/new-2014-corvette/#!/gallery |

Interesting. Just out of curiosity - how old may you be? Because what I just saw is, a 6.2L V8 Engine with a 0 to 60 in less than 4 seconds. |

I'm 21, my dad had a A 2003 Corvette with the LS1 in it. I just kept traction control on and never had any problems. We also had a 2008 335i and it was a fun toy. My dad sent this to me in a email and I fell in love. I really wanted a new 5.0 Mustang until this came out. |

Unbelievable. That's one thing I do love about American and Canadian driving laws. If I'm correct, your insurance (if that actually exists) are way cheaper than ours. We pay a lot more from what I know. For me, to get a Corvette Stingray (6.2L -C6 SE Black, coupe) , to insure and tax it, these would be the costs in the UK (I will covert the $$) Cost of Car: £50,000 + Car Tax (one year - n/a): Though if I took a guess, it'll be around £200-300 if not more (I'll go in the middle for this example as £250) Insurance: £2,114.70 (Based as a 21yo as a computer technician job) Total: £52,364.70 US Currency Conversion: $82,025.79 |

In 2005 my dad and I had a 2003 Z06, my insurance was about $5-6000 a year (backed out of that and bought a motorcycle), now my 2002 z06 is about $1100 a year, because I'm older than 26 (or 27 idk) where the rates drop. My insurance went down 200 a year when I swapped from the infinity G35 (book value 16k) to my z06 (book value 27k), just because its a 3yr older car... Lol |

Yeah, madly enough the insurance has slightly changed here for the guys - The girls used to get insurance for example, at 18, theres would be £800, whereas guys would be £2000. Law changed, and as you get older (over 25 it's peanuts) - but for me, I went from £1000 on a Renault Clio 1.2L 70hp(i think) to £670 on a 1.4L Vauxhall Astra SXi 90HP. Whereas I will be getitng a BMW M Sport, 320, at insurance of around £500-600 at 21. |

When I get back to the states in June I'm gonna buy me a nice beater/used car to zip around in. You kids and your fast cars... there's no point in having them unless you have a general understanding of how most radar devices work, like this little MP :P Speed detectors are a waste of money, just so y'all know. |
