INSURANCE! What 16-17's Pay?

Hey I was wondering what the 16-17 yearolds out there are paying for insurance on thier EVO.
Also state if any accidents and if your state is known for high insurance rates.



PLEASE DO NOT FLAME ABOUT HOW PEOPLE THAT YOUNG SHOULDNT HAVE AN EVO I DONT CARE AND THATS OFF TOPIC!!!!
THANKS!

You will pay, at the least, 1500 per half year. I suspect you'll end up paying like 2000 dollars per half year, meaning 4000 per year.

It should drop off a little after a while without any tickets/accidents.

By the way, I'm not an insurance expert.

I think you are missing some options in your poll....below "over 400" you should add two more options: "one kidney" and "2nd mortagage on your house + your 2 years old baby sister".

The kidney's the going rate for w/o accident. And the rate for with accident is the second one I think. Not 100% on the second one though....go ask around....

Yes, an organ is about right. I hope you have 2 good kidneys. See if you can sell stuff on fleabay. Your middle name, perhaps? Try getting some stuff going on the side (by that I mean crack cocaine deals, selling drifters' body parts, etc).

200 bucks a month is what you'll be looking at. Its a giant rip off if you ask me, but none-the-less...its the price you pay.

Definitely. You will be paying closer to 300 dollars a month. Have you checked Esurance's quotes? They are pretty good, and cheap.

I didn't mention whoring yourself out because I assumed you wanted to keep some of your dignity, but this is an option.

I remember you posted something about getting 4k in mods? Maybe you could spend it on insurance?

I would say about $200-250 a month. Its a 4-door, ABS, and AWD, so an insurance company shouldn't rape u too badly on rates, but then again im not an insurance agent. But if u get any tickets or get into an accident, you'll probably have to consider whoring urself out for $$$ in order to pay ur insurance afterwards.

I'm already going to have the money for mods, right now I mkae around 300 a week and by the time I get my Evo I will be making about..... 400-600 a week depending on what my raise is.
So either way I should be fine, I think my car payments won't be too high either cause I will have a big down payment.

Price of the car and location matters too. It could be a $30,000 car with ABS, AWD, Child Safety locks, 10 horsepower, and the whole nine yards, but it still costs more to insure because of initial purchase price.

Remind me how you make $500 a week in high school? Do you not do your schoolwork or something.

I just found out, my brother is about to turn 18 and he pays 3,000 a year for a 2001 Accord. Also my friend 16 or possibly 17 drives like a around 2000 Blazer and he pays $240 a month.
