Re: Insurance - Had Enough

Yeah, gonna have to go ahead and tell you that no matter what a teen drives, it will be expensive to insure.

To put this in persepective, I turned 18 in May 2001, and by January 2002 I purchased a new-to-me 1994 Camaro Z28. Liability only was a hair over $200 a month (don't even ask me what full coverage was, it'll bring back the nightmares). That was, of course, well before texting and driving was such a huge issue, so I imagine $200/month is almost affordable by today's standards for an 18 year old in a V8 "sports car," much less anything else.

I feel your pain, I have a kid turning 15 this year... it won't be long until I deal with the same issue.
