Subject: Re: [DeTomaso] Documentation of Panteras increased value
I think the rising value is the most important reason to keep updating the
agreed value of your insurance! That way if something (god forbid) does
happen you will get enough money to repair or replace you pantera. I don't
care how much they go up as long as i can get adequate coverage I will keep
driving mine. As far as young guys go when I managed a Honda ? BMW
franchise there were plenty of young guys into cars, the differnce is that
they were into "rice burners!" It;s actually amazing they take front wheel
drive 4 cylinder cars (like civics) put big turbos on them and some are
turning under 8 sec 1/4 miles!I think the young guys today face the same
issues we did when we were young, the really cool cars are just too much
money! So they work with what they can afford. Here is a car I found on
google
17. Rosado Racing / Alex Dieguez (USA)*
*
Car: 1982 Toyota Corolla<http://motors.shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=toyota+corolla>
Chassis: 3/4 Chassis (RWD)
Engine: Toyota 3S-GTE
Best ET: 7.09 @ 194.80 mph
Video: http://www.grs-motorsports.net/noticias ... 09/123.wmv
Hard to believe! a 194mph 1983 Toyota Corolla! Who would have thunk?
Boyd
P.S. I called Hagerty and their premium was twice as much (literally) as
the quote I got from Grundy.

I can see Senate hearings to ban sports cars because they represent
what is wrong with youth.
