wow, 61K for a Z28, and my friend bought his 94 Z28 new for 24K new.

For me its My DD when I do drive,and if sell it I am getting a new 2014 GM truck,and having FASTLANE drop either a ZR1 crate motor,or a LS7 in it so my wheelchair can be lifted in and out of the bed with a lift..for some of us its not about the price of gas,as we either dont drive much or their work is close to home.....I drove a srt10 with a S/C in it that dyno @683rwhp everyday (40miles a day)and got worse mileage than my ZL1 before I was wheelchair bound...
But for those that cant afford to pay for the gas either should not get it,or if they can afford to have a second car should do so...Its not a car that anyone that has to worry about their bills should really get. I would think it might take the enjoyment out of it if you have to pitch your pennies just to drive after spending so much to get it.
I would hate to look at it,knowing that if I was someone that had to pay a grand or close a month for it,and could not afford to drive it.!!!! just IMOP be smart buy a nice 70's Z with 500rwhp for 20k,and beat the crap out of it,while being able to drive it everyday with Zero payments and 50 bucks a month for insurance..
