My first car in my name, a 1995 325IS Insured with full comp/collision $500/$500/$0 glass deductible was $53x.xx a month for one full 6 month term, then it went down to $36x.xx a month…all through AIG, then I got eSurance which I have now, and pay ~$270 a month.

Does it really go down at 21?

I got my license at 18. Long story.

two cars with collision for less than $100 a month through Allstate.

I think I have some discount since my home insurance is through them too, but it’s still a damn good deal.

i think the new se-r’s are pretty sweet! the rims look cool, its got some giddy-up…

my mom’s got an 08 value edition sentra… its a pretty good car, no issues with it, rides nice, gets great mpg’s too…i think the last time she checked it was around 32-33 city and some highway… she’s got close to 4k on it now, mpg’s improved drastically after the first oil change…

oh, i don’t see a need for full coverage on a 92 240 :confusedsx

I dont find the new ones visually appealing. Even that yellow one, with the hop ups doesnt look that good to me.

Insurance being high on Honda’s has nothing to do with it being a “sportscar”. It has to so with the fact that Honda has several models on the Top 10 list of cars to most likely be stolen. I worked in the Insurance industry for quite some time so I know what i’m talking about. When I was 18-19, I took all the courses and did all the things I possibly could to lower my rates. Right now im only paying $1200/yr for FULL coverage on the VR4 and bike.

It sucks getting insurance at a young age but the rates in that age group are there for a reason.

Im 26 and Im paying $156 a month for my '05 Hyundai Elantra (full coverage) and my '92 Ford Mustang (comprehensive) thru Kemper. The Mustang is only about $500 a year because its my second vehicle on the policy.  
I saved money by switching from Progressive (same agent) and I had looked all over before going with Progressive and at the time it was cheaper. I was 21 when I got my own insurance.

My insurance went down a bit in the past year due to me being over 25 now.

My license and driving record are spotless- no accidents or tickets.

BTW- the original poster isnt Semir. He’s Captain Morgan.

Yes - in NY, you have 5 years driving experience (theoretically). Therefore, you’re a more responsible driver. However, 21 also means your DWI chances go up much higher, so :confused

Ok so that makes more sense, it goes down when you have 5 years experience, and at 25?

It’s not 5 years experience necessarily - in NY, you can get your learners permit @ 16, so at age 21, you “have 5 years driving experience” in the insurance companies eyes. As for the 25, I believe that’s just before you “have 10 years driving experience” 😉
