If you are looking for insurance prices, why don't you just call your insurance agent and ask them? It will take almost no time and get you much more accurate information then some informal thread.

I'm 30 and pay about 80 bucks a month, mind you this is exactly how much I paid for a 2004 GTO, it's kind of a ripoff.

When I was 20, I paid $600 every 6 months. When my friend had his FD at 19, he paid $800 every 6.

As Phillip_g said, prepare to get owned.

Especially if you have Nationwide.

Ah, the good old days. Enjoy it while you are young!

I remember when State Farm dropped my rates big time - just before I hit 25. That was a nice bonus. Then they kept on coming. I quit looking forward to them. :/

Insurance is pretty much a non-issue to me. I'm 44. But heh, I can still party hard like I used to. Maybe not as often.

I just don't beat the living **** out of my cars. I drive them hard, sometimes really hard, but not like an idiot.

Oh, you want a little insurance advice... don't crash!!! I might save your *** as well as your wallet. I know, I'm a genius.

thank god I'm beyond those years but there is no car worth 300 bucks a month in insurance, expecially one with the resale fo an FD.

get a little older, start opening 5 or 6 lines with your agent and watch your cars drop. With a business policy, 3 cars, a house etc with one company it helps a ton.

Jesus you guys have cheap insurance. I'm 23, no accidents, my last ticket of any kind was almost 5 years ago now. I pay $360 a month, $1000 deductible. Alberta sucks.

Your insurance varies on your location, age, and driving record. I believe i pay $2200 a year for full coverage under my parents insurance.

I'm 21 and after getting in a tiny scrape and dent accident with my mom's civic my insurance went up from $1500/year to $3000/year. WITHOUT COLLISION! It's pretty gay if you ask me.
