Screamin, I just had to tell this. When I bought my first brand new car, just one month after I turned 19, back in Jan. of 1970. I had to pay $1,160 a year just for the privilege to drive my new AMX, that stickered out at around $4,200 That made it a little over 1/4 of the price of the car.
If you find a new Crossfire for around 24k, (and I'm sure you can) $6,000 a year for insurance would be just about equal to what I paid, wouldn't it?
