Hey guys just wondering...how rare are Turbo T/A's? I just noticed there was one on e-bay with like a day left on the auction. The bid was still under 10k and the car has like 50k miles. There's a link just incase anyone is interested: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1835120475 I was thinking of bidding but I believe they have quite a lot of power (something like 300ish hp?) which would put my insurance through the roof. As you can tell i'm not an expert...but I kinda have my youthful mind set on an old vette anyway.

Hopefully someone hasn't already posted about this:lala:

They only have 250hp stock.

They're a really desireable car.

Dammit if only my insurance company was open today and I could see what they would charge me. I wonder what HP the insurance co would find with the vin number? Well I guess that car is for someone who isn't using it for a daily driver. I wouldn't be able to take car of it like it should be...and I would hate myself for it. I'm just gonna have to get myself an old vette
