I would say more than $2500 with mods that I did and other repairs that had to be done. Normally every year I am putting money into it but I guess that is what happens when the car is driven a ton and is 10 years old.

I have about $1000 in headers and my cutout. I was lucky to make it that cheap. I would say I am under 2k on the year.

The Monte was a bit expensive this year, because of the new transmission, New Tires, New Brakes and rotors and New Struts. I'm over 5K into the Monte this year.

Just bought the Corvette in August...and I'm about 4,000 into that for 2014 between doing all maintenance services on it and Exhaust, Induction, hood stripe, rear spoiler and Center Console upgrade.

So both cars combined, I'm a little over 9K for maintenance and upgrades in 2014. That obviously does not include the cost of the Corvette.

I clocked over 40,000 miles between the two cars for 2014.

The Monte rolled 200,000 on 12/30/13 and sits at 238,200 as of 12/30/14. I purchased the Corvette in mid August at 53,250 and it's now sitting at 55,280.

Corvette's are meant to be driven. They get lonely when they're not driven. Don't leave your poor Corvette lonely like that. You make Corvette sad.
