You did that completly wrong. You only found the monthly payments for my father and did not include me as the secondary.
Me as Primary Driver = $328/month = $3600 a yr(after 10%-15% upfront) <--- This is what I currently pay by myself(give or take)
This is what you forgot.
My Dad as Primary = $1450
Me as Secondary = $1900
1450 + 1900 = $3350 a year(no down since my dad is primary) = $335 a month (only 10 months of payments)
I could have saved $300 if I did it with my father as primary, but $300 is nothing and would rather just put it under my name.

Currently paying 1850$ canadian / year for insurance on my RX8 with Wawanesa. I have 2 vehicles on my policy. It used to be 2000$ back when I only had the RX8.
One speeding ticket (25km/h over limit so about 15mph), 20 yr old.
One company quoted me 6000$ last summer (when I got the car).
Good thing I looked around!! saved 4000$

I am currently paying right over $100 a month for insurance.
I am 18 and luckily my parents let me sign up under them and just make me pay the $100 a month. Full coverage. I'm lucky I guess.
I've never had a ticket and I make good grades though .... That might help
$500 Deductible

You guys think that's bad? This is what it's like in Ireland::::
JDM import has higher insurance than EUDM for some unknown reason so:
€2500 last year, was 22 y/o with clean license for 3 years.
€2000 this year, 23 y/o with clean license.
€more next year as I have acquired 4 points in the last month for speeding
(The car turned into an RX-Late for work because it wouldn't start!!)
Before settling on that first quote of €2500 I had quotes of up to €5000 due to it being an RX-8. Some companies wouldn't even quote me!

$178/mo. 30 years old, single and have been with state farm for 10 years. i've totaled 2 cars in the last year costing them over $40,000 for cars plus $5000 in hospital. i got 10 moving violations recently in about the last year, have had just enough of them put on hold for court supervision so i could keep a regular license.

Age: 18 - Fail
Location: L.A. - Fail
Car: 2007 - Fail
Liability - Win?
The sum of all these is that with the RX-8 listed under my dad's name, but with him, my mom, and I posted as operators is a premium of $1600/yr. Which is absolutely ridiculous, considering my '67 Squareback costs $184/yr..
Between the insurance and the terrible fuel economy, I don't know what's worse financially about stepping up from an aircooled Volkswagen? Everything else is just wonderful, though!

Just over $800/yr for full coverage with upgraded bodily injury (500K) and property damage (100K) through State farm. Should go down next year quite a bit since I qualify for low milage use.
39 yr old, single male with nothing on my record except rolling my jeep in an ice storm (which they don't count against me).

EDIT: I pay $135/mo but I am under my parents insurance. 23 years old, one accident 6 years ago. The only way I get away with being under their name is I share my dads name and since I bought this house when they moved to Chicago, the insurance company thinks he still owns it thus I am under their roof. Haha.
