Default READ THIS IT IS A BIG HELP

Look. i am looking at a vette, im 17, and i got an insurance quote for the car.300 dollars. but, i havce a truck i am keeping, and since it has full coverage, the vette is a secondary vehicle(Un insure the vette, then insure it again once the other vehicle is insured.) so, buy a cheap pinto, fully insure it, and then take out a full coverage policy on the vette. voila- my insurance dropped from 300 to 46.90 a month fr full coverage. i hoipe it helps,and i dont know if it will work for you, but it doesnt hurt to look at it.

well Im 18 and am on my dads insurance with both the vette and my jetta. And he picks up the tab on both. So I honestly cannot say what they are a month...however I do know the vette is like $64 a month full coverage...thats probably because of my dads flawless record though.

no just listed as a pleasure car driven under 10,000 miles a year. Its under USAA...They are good....that is unless your house is hit by a hurricain and floods.... :rolleyes: .....If it wasn't for FEMA, we would have gotten shafted.

I'm 18 and got classic insurance (Im a secondary driver under my dad) but with that it costs me only 150 dollars a year.. but that is for 2500 miles. i might change it to 5 thousand a year.

And do you have another car of your own? I read that each person had to have their own car.

Im 16 with Allstate and listed as the primary driver. I pay a little over 80 a month. Its not classic insurance and it is full coverage but they look at it as a 20 year old car, if its trashed I won't get the worth.

I'm on allstate also. I am 24, one ticket, 0 wrecks my fault, 1 wreck not my fault, and if I were to insure my 'vette now, it would be $86 per month for full coverage. SUPPOSEDLY that numbe will go down in March when I turn 25. Car probably won't be driveable by then anyway.

I have a 2001 F150 insured through them... $113 / month full coverage.

I think I pay $400 for the entire year for my '75. It's supposed to be a secondary car, but it's what i drive the most. Actually, my parents pay insurance but i take care of all the cars like oil changes and stuff so it works out.
