$400/yr with >25yrs/old, multicar, and homeowners discounts. Progressive's covering me for $8000/car for collision, theft, and no insurance.

Basically I crash it - I'm our ~$8000. It gets stolen or hit - I'm covered for $8000.

Many people do not know this, but there is a test which a minor must pass before he/she is allowed to own a sportscar with over 100hp. The test is called the PHONE (Pre-adult Hotrod Owner's Nationalized Exam), and can be taken as a home-study course if you do not want to travel to your local DMV. Here are the subject areas of the PHONE test:

1) Vision and Reading Comprehension: Applicant must be able to read the Insurance section of the Yellow Pages, and correctly identify carriers which sell auto insurance.

2) Numerical Sequencing and Motor Skills: Applicant must be able to dial the phone numbers of auto insurance carriers.

3) Verbal Communications and Comprehension: Applicant must coherently discuss the basic vehicle description and insurance coverage options with insurance sales representatives.

4) Mathematical and Financial Cognition: Applicant must correctly identify the better insurance plan for him/her, and also determine if it is affordable when added to the other items in the applicant's budget, such as car payments, fuel, oil changes, repairs, etc. Extra credit will be given if the applicant researches the market value and common problem areas of the vehicle prior to purchase.

Insurance quotes are free, so there will be no charge to the applicant for this test battery. Good luck!

Evil Aviator,

I'm getting this sharp snapping sensation in my neck

Iwant7,

Don't mind evil aviator. We've seen quite a few post lately from <21 buyers. Just keep in mind the TIIs go EXTREEMLY fast in no time - so promise us you won't smash it (they're getting rare ) and take care of her

So, was I supposed to say something like this?... "Actually, the insurance rate question has been asked by people of various ages, not just the younger folks. There are just too many variables involved to get an accurate quote from asking the general worldwide public on this forum. You will need to call your local insurance carrier for a quote."

That is way too dull! I think that my PHONE test is much more dramatic, not to mention entirely Evil.

LOL @ Evil...

If anyone cares, I pay 400 euros/year, thats something like 370$, but thats without "mixed", i.e I have injuries, fire, theft etc and collision, but the latter only for the other (if its my fault). I still pay my own damages...

Dude, I am a long time domestic car nut, still am. BUT YOU DO NOT WANT A LINCOLN!!!!!!!!!

My good friend has a 69 lincoln continental that I helped him restore. The thing is a freaking boat. It has a 460 pushing 430 hp to the wheels and still runs a 16 second quarter mile(not it is not the driver, just look at the car). But the most important reason not to get a lincoln is: IT'S A FORD PRODUCT!!!
Unless you like working on your car on a daily basis, i would advise against it. Get the
T2, you wont regret it

The only reason 1revvin7 would say that is he knows that as it is now with my celebrity I'm ******* crazy. But a skiled driver. But he also Knows that im a fast driver but i know where not to speed. Oh he has three speeding tickets or something like that after 9 months with his 88 gtu (oh he doesnt drive it like it wants to be driven but it is the cleanest rex i've ever seen) Oh he is also afraid i'll kick his *** in a race.

Peace out dizzle hope you like my soon to be taillights
