Our last set of tires was $460.08. 15-inch tires are cheap! That reminds me, I should look at the tire wear... and maybe check the tire pressures.
So you/re gonna sell Joe Brannon and me the Fastiva with a NOx kit installed for $2016? We need a fast/cheap wicked car for "That" Fall event of low dollars. :cool:

Actually the Vettemeister is right. I only paid $12k for the Vette with little repair. I got the RX8 for $10k 4-5 years back but Loren is "RIGHT" I ended up putting $4k into it over time to make it perfect "twice". The Vert VETTE was way cheaper. Fluids change and a set of $400 shocks installed at the dealer. Buy a C5 Vette dudes. It kills me to say Dan E. is RIGHT. ARRRRG.
