I have to say mods for sure. Tires are ready to changed and I don't understand why the rear ones need to be changed but the front ones are good. Mybe it's the supercharger. LOL It seems like I can never get enough power. I love it though!!!

My daughter is 27 now but when she was a teenager I had a C5 vette and including the daughters Saturn she only ran us $55 a month extra. I know there are a ton of factors involving insurance but I cannot imagine paying $300+ a month...

My Camaro isn't really hurting the wallet. Pay cash for any mods so there aren't too many yet other than CAI and exhaust.

School Loans.

Seems like the majority of drivers are getting in the butt by the insurance companies. Hey... Maybe we can start our own C5 Insurance company? Naaah.... probably not a good thing.

Try having teenage twins, I think I paid for Farmers entire executive compensation package.

Tires. But I'm used to it. My 3rd gen ate up a set of tires every 9 months.

Rabamaro · 06-15-2012, 08:19 AM

My insurance is 600 every 6 months and my record is prestine. Next would be tires and gas. I think I'll be switching to the Toyo Proxes 4 when it comes time to replace my rears in the next couple months. I've been riding on the Invo's for 16k and the inner portion of both of them are damn near bald. I've got Hankook Ventus V12 Evos up front. I didn't even know Hankook made a tire to fit the rear! I'm sure it must have a different tread pattern though.

I pay around 380$ a month, no tickets, no accidents, nada... That's Canada for ya...

I would say costs for me go

Insurance
Gas
Maintenance

Holy crap! $380 a month for insurance? I might be in the market for a bicycle if I had to pay that. That's more than my car payment. Just when I thought everything but the weather was better in Canada....

crateish · 06-15-2012, 09:27 AM

Gas and Insurance, like most of us.

When Bill Clinton left office, gas was $1.46 a gallon. The next guys' buddies rigged the system so that we will never have cheap gas again.

Oil companies are making their biggest profits ever and still get massive welfare assistance from we the taxpayers.

Mission Accomplished.
