if you go to school in quebec, or live near quebec and have a relative that lives in quebec you’re in luck. but you will have to have quebec plates, but hey, at least you don’t need a front one. insurance is so much cheaper in quebec, right now im going to school at Bishop’s University in Quebec, and when i get my car i will register it here in qubec. Thats what my uncle does, he used to live in Montreal, now in kingston and he still has his car registered in quebec for that exact reason ---

You have to have your primary residence listed as somewhere in Quebec (iirc). And if it isn’t you only have a set time period to change your plates to the correct ones. ---

it could be the fact that this car is geting more popular, or the whole drifting thing. S14- quoted $300 a month, 18 years old, G licence. 1989 dodge colt - $hittest car ever - $250/month. explain me that. ---

It’s US that insurance is more interested in; the car is only a reasonable factor…so they are more worried about being a young male than exactly what car you drive. But again, the car can still be a big factor. ---

Heh, yea, it’d be a lot cheaper for a girl, I know how much some of them pay for insurance… hooooly… I can only dream. And you can’t totally look at the car from a piece by piece basis. WRX STi is a 4 door sedan, seats five. Highest insurance out of any car except for exotics. (I read this somewhere… I think it was the net thou, so might be wrong :D) ---

(I read this somewhere… I think it was the net thou, so might be wrong :D) WRX STi is also all wheel drive and over 200 hp which increases insurance rates. ---
