Yeah, you either got to be in the military (USAA) or over 60 years old (AARP).

Costing me $170/mo. for N/A, with all the benefits of my parents, thank God. For a Turbo II because I'm 16, to be 17 in july, I would've had to pay around $3,200+ every 6 months

Well, I'm 22 and I pay $115 a month for my N/A with one ticket on my record. It's actually a racing ticket for beating an old V8(not a 350, maybe a 305?) Camaro in my old CRX. I guess it was almost worth the ticket.

$1400 ($933 USD) Cdn for full coverage for a 19 year old, $100 deductable, $2,000,000 Liability, for one year.

The insurance company up here is owned by the government, and there is no competition. Prices stay low for some reason.... I have dealt with ICBC a couple times, and I am very impressed with how they handle cliams and the likes...
(Did you know that if you get a rock chip and give ICBC the licence plate of the gravel truck you were following and "did" it to you on the freeway, they'll replace your windshield completely free? Trucking company gets the deductable bill....)

I'm 21. Live in Santa Monica, CA. Been driving since 16. College Student living away from home. 2 points on my record(accident with bodily injury).

I used to pay about $1300 every 6 months for 100k/300k bodily injury; 50k property damage; 100k/300k uninsured motorist; 3.5k/collision deductible waiver uninsured motorist property; 1000 Collision deductible; 0 comprehensive deductible; towing; 50/1500 rent a car

I have the same thing now, but only pay $700 for my 1989 GTU.

I can't believe that bitch said she got hurt when I hit her going 5mph. I'm gonna find her and jump behind her car and sue her ***.

liability here is around $50 / year
i have full coverage + all benefits for $300 / year

liability here depends on size or your engine, so 1308 ccm gets you to cheapest insurance ;o))))

I pay $600/6 months on my TII with a few tickets, but no accidents since I was 16...8 years ago. That's for full coverage.

i'm 24 yrs old and have never even considered joining the military....but see, here's the thing...with geico...they don't ask if it's a turbo or not...all they want is your VIN...and face it...the VIN doesn't jump out and say "HEY I'M A T2!!!" they've gotta know a thing or two about 7's to know that the some Rex's are t2's.

It also has to do a LOT with where you live or where you're driving around.&nbsp Major metropolitan areas will significantly increase premiums over some "back woods" areas...
