well time has come, and i finish school this may which means welcome to the "real world." so i want a new car right ?



i was lookin at the acura tsx because you can buy one decked out for 26k. well, being independant means startin own insurance plan.. im lookin at $250-300 a month for insurance. plus the car payment for the tsx.. hah. so about 700 bucks a month to drive.. i have one small ticket on my record. no accidents..



it would be cheaper for an fd.. prolly around 175 a month...



well, im keeping my 6-cyl mustang for a while thats been paid off for several years.. dropping full-coverage, just have liability, and paying $70 bucks a month.



wow, insurance sucks.



i have 2 jobs lined up, with a nice starting salary, benefits etc... id' rather save money and put it into something else than a ****** car at this point..



im disgusted..



maybe i'll start lookin into buying something that'll hold its value.. a house or something..

 

sorry guys.. just pissed.. i knew insurance raped you, but 2-3k a year for a 4 cyl. 4-door car is freakin rediculous

 

i pay 250 a month for a diesel jetta...



but thats in canukian prices

 

I pay $176/mo for a '92 Olds Bravada (4x4 by ins standards) and my FD, both full coverage. Then again, I carry a policy with the same company for my home, and for some reason I'm getting a good student discount, even though I haven't been in school for 5 years.. SHHHHHHHH. Oh, and I'm 23 with one minor ticket (unsafe lane change, lol).

 

i guess having it under your homeowners.... under some sort of umbrella prolly helps too..



i would get that good student discount if i were still gonna be in school..



yeah, the one ticket i have is a small speeding ticket.. cop knocked it down to 5mph over.

 

I paid $350 /mo for my 4 door auto 4 cyl Cavalier?



I drove it to the scrapyard after I got the daytona..

 

damn, thats high.. is that canada though ?



either way.. still high... iv'e decided to run my car into the ground.. and in another year have enough saved up to where i can buy what i want with cash..



and maybe my insurance will drop a little by then.

 

You finished High School, OF COURSE IT'S STILL HIGH.

 

Yeah I was thinking of moving to Alberta or something where they don't totally assrape you for insurance rates..



I'm looking at the same rates probably until I'm about 25.. Or longer..

 

I pay $370 every 6 months for laibility on my FC.
