Re:

The '93 vett's only worth about $7k, but folks think otherwise due to their ignorance and it seems that about half the motorists want to race me. i.e., if I find myself halfway passing someone on the highway just in the normal course of travel, many gun their engine so as to not let a vette pass. When in my old ugly pickup truck, people tend to drive differently and seem to just stay the H out of the way or let me pass. Vette gets about 27 mpg on the highway though, so its kinda an economy car for me.
