Get a beater truck. Helps lower your insurance costs since the sports car would not be listed as your daily driver.

The cost of buying/maintaining/insuring a beater would be more than just having the GT. I've looked into it.

Planning to play winter bumper cars with freshman at VCU with your red sled? A $500 disposable beater may be worthwhile when you add up the collision deductibles for your car.

When stacking your tires for storage, don't forget to place cardboard between each to prevent scratching the rims. Some people were asking why there was cardboard between each in my Tower of Tires.
