I got my first 'vette (a lovely '92 manual) when I was 26... £414 fully comp insurance then as well
A lot of friends spent the same - or more - on cars like Seat Leon Cupras, Golf GTis etc. Slower, more expensive to insure, and depreciates... I tried to tell 'em
I bought my first Corvette when I was 23 after my Camaro blew up. Now I am 30 something?? and onto my third Corvette. I defected for a while down the 911 route in my mid twenties but that phase did not last long and I returned to the Vette world.
