Can someone inform me on the tC and how it does insurance rate wise? I'm 17 and looking at the tC, but I'm not sure if it will go well with the parents if it cost a lot to insure. By the way, the tC will be a 2008 with standard equipment including the airbags.

 

07 with side airbags, 19 on my own $180 a month.

(ive been with them for 2years though and my 2nd car with them)

 

gonna be pretty expensive if you put your self as the primary driver.

If your parents are cool with it, put them as the primary drivers. Then just pay them the cost of the insurance on another vechile

 

Do you mind me asking what brand of insurance you have on your tC orange?

 

depends on where you live, but it will be high considering the other variables...

young driver, popular car, full coverage.

 

i only pay ~200/month for mine. primary driver, but im on my parents policy

 

USAA

 

Im 19, on my own policy, good coverage, pay 2000 a year.

 

when i was 17, on my parents policy i paid only $77/month with multiple discounts. Oh and i have state farm.

 

20 yrs old, full coverage - 720/yr thru my parents policy....

 

19 yrs old, full coverage, $710/yr through state farm on my parents policy

 

I would call the insurance company and just ask for quotes. For me, it would have cost more to insure a Civic LX coupe than a tC. (The AAA rep said it's because there's more Civic thefts.)

 

Be careful though. My 17 yr old cousin got a new TC and is paying her car pymt in insurance every month. She's on her parent's policy but because there are 3 licensed drivers and 3 cars they assigned each driver a specific car. My parent's policy did that with my brother too. Just something to be cautious of

 

i have esurance, full maximized coverage, i used to pay 236 a month, but my policy just got renewed, and now i only pay 192 a month since i've been good about not getting caught misbehaving on the road. radar detectors rule! lol.

 

tc insurance for younger guys is awesome =p


cheeper on the tc then it was on my 2002 chevy s10 and a lil more then my 95 vw golf lol.....

 

I'm 20 and I pay $250 a month. Yeah it sucks!!!! But I do have one speeding ticket and I live in South Florida. Insurance is CRAZY down here!

 

question, if the car is financed and your parents are not on the loan can you still get insurance under there name with you as a driver??? lmk please thanks

 

Just call your insurance agent and get a quote. It's their job, and they can give you a lot more accurate information than anyone here can, since any rates would be tailored to your specific situation.

 

My family pays $600 a month for car insurance. My parents have fantastic driving records; my brother totaled a prelude, wrecked a lexus and received many tickets as for as I know. We own one Acura-MDX, Toyota Sienna, a lexus (which i'm not sure if it's included in our insurance), and two scion tC's. I think my insurance for just me, is about 200-220?

 

Wow, and I thought I was paying a lot...

On my dad's policy: ~$800 every six months.
