How is everyone insuring their cars? I've seen price ranges from $5 -$35k and I wouldn't be insuring it as a collector car, but want to be sure I'm not driving a $20k example and have $5k insurance coverage.

If you're worried about insurance payouts, spending more than 7-9k is going to be a waste of money as you won't get much more than that, if that. You could always do some kind of agreed value type of thing though...

Interesting...I know Chubb offers an agreed upon policy for about $2k a year for $20kish of coverage which is pretty ridiculous.

I found myself a nice original owner, 2005 Imola Red Sedan 6-speed, Alcantara, cold weather and premium package with 55k miles and I love it. I transferred out of my 2015 F80 and I honestly don't miss it at all. This car is so much car for the money, and a great value to me. I finally feel like I'm not working for my car.

Last week I replaced all tires with new Michelin PSS's, oil, diff, trans, power steering, brake fluid change, fuel filter, and cabin filter. In the next 5k miles I will likely replace the expansion tank and hoses during the next oil change. Not sure I need anything else at this point, but happy to hear any suggestions.

That's a win right there, and low miles to boot. Congrats.
No oil leaks?

Thanks! No leaks or issues to address mechanically. A few cosmetic issues like curb rash on the wheels and scrapes on the bumpers, but otherwise a really nice unmolested car.
