I'm getting sick of my car.
 
Lately its been depressing me. i cant take the slowness anymore. i cant afford insurance on a 4th gen v8 so i've been thinking about an IROC. i figure i can sell my car for at least 5000 and that'd be more than enough for an IROC. what do you guys think?

See if you can find a cheap 3rd gen and drop in a beefy crate motor and your all set.

man, you can find a 93-97 LT1 for around 5,000. Do some searching and take your time, and see if you can find an older LT1. remember the older it is, the cheaper the insurance ;)

80 bucks more a year is not that bad. :confused:

maybe he meant an extra 80 bucks a month..cuz 80 extra a year isnt that bad...good luck finding somethin!

im lucky my car insurance is only 750 a year :)

NoRiceInside 01-01-2005 09:42 PM

well 80 a year isnt bad but i was expecting it to be cheaper than it is now.

have you had any tickets caleb? because it looks like adam got a good deal on insurance for a 01 t/a. unless its not insured in winter. plus if you get a job you can afford more stuff. are you getting the pep-boys job btw?

robluvs2xlr8 01-01-2005 11:24 PM

buy an ls1 engine on e-bay, they go for around 2-3k


and make your car fly

:cool:

i have an accident and a ticket. in cali accidents and tickets go on your license as points and they stay there for 3 years. as long as i have those two points its gonna be high rates, so when i'm 19.5 they'll be gone, and by then maybe i can save up some dough and when them points are gone i can get my LS1 SS :D

and about the pep boys job, the manager has to make a call to see if i can work before i'm 18, but he hasnt had time to do that since theyre remodelling the store, and since i'm almost 18 i might just simply wait till then. i gotta talk to him this week.

NoRiceInside 01-01-2005 11:53 PM

i do like the 91-92 maros with the gfx and stuff, but if i got a 4th gen it'd be a 350. sorry.
