Yeah I did that, and I get a discount for good grades, and I have never gotten a ticket or anything, and the insurance is still insane (thankfully I don't have to pay it yet, but still:). So yes every little thing helps, but the initial rate is so extreme that nothing you can do can really soften it much:(

Hm. That doesn't sound right. Driver's Ed is required for the permit, which is a precursor to your license, I can't see something that is required lowering insurance rates, unless you have it confused with Defensive driving, which will lower insurance rates, if you are NOT taking it for a ticket.

V6 LT/RS

Black (top half hot wheels pink)

Hope to get this baby for $26 ish. :)

Color: Orange/black or Black/orange or White/orange
Plan to buy: Jan 2010

Different state, could be true:iono:
Either way insurance WILL cost more for the V8, even for the 25+, which is when your (male) insurance should drop by +/- 40%... :chevy:

You don't need a permit in NH, you just take drivers ed, learn then go fo yo liscense.

Well my driver's ed. class gave me a discount that would take effect 6 months after I started driving and last for 6 months IF I did not get in any accidents or get any tickets. But this discount was minimal, taking off like $20 a month (for 6 months, so it was a pretty good deal but still nothing major). I forget the discount for having all A's, but it was even less than the other.

Could be a different state, hadn't thought of that. But yeah, the v8 insurance will be pretty hefty for pretty much everyone (that is a male) under 25 :thumbdown: because apparently we are more likely to get in a wreck than all of those insane teenage girls driving around talking on their cell phones and putting makeup on at stoplights... :bs: on that one imo.. lol

Ah, in TX we have to drive with a permit for at least six months after completion of d ed before we are eligible for a liscence, if I remember correctly.

Yeah, 6 months at 16, 3 months at 17, and you can get your license right after drivers ed at 18.

Youre effin kidding me i had to get 50 hours

Lol, that is true.

In Ohio, you get your temporary at 15.5 years, license at 16 years with driver's ed OR license at 18 years WITHOUT driver's ed. A lot of people, including myself, are just going for 18. Driver's ed is a total waste of money IMO.

A loaded SS/RS LS3 manual, maybe without the sunroof if it sticks out of the car.

I want the best aftermarket exhaust and intake.

Color? White IF it comes out by June 09, otherwise I hope the Inferno Orange looks good, if not maybe Victory red. I like silver buy my last 3 cars b4 my current Black NIGHTMARE were all Alabaster Silver, so Silver is out. All the other colors are too dark for me.

I would consider stripes IF they are painted on. I don't want stickers.

For price, I won't pay more then $40k.
