Call your insurance agent... You will have an answer in 2 minutes.

When I had a 67 Firebird 400 when I was 17, insurance was $200 a month, full coverage. That was 20 years ago.

16 years old, very very fast car (SS), even the 300 HP LT, plus limited driving experience, plus new car equals most insurance companies will not touch you, unless you insure this through your parents.

How did you plan on paying for car? Will, trust? Not to be a dick, but if you finance at 16with little or no credit, insurance companies also do not like because of the associated "risk" as somebody else paying for car (other than bonafide job) and insurance companies relate no "interest" of responsibility and have accrued same. NOT inferring you have not saved or don't have a job, just know a little of the inner workings of insurance.

In essence, people drive like crap if someone else is paying for the car.

I make close to 80k a year and have 0 debt, a $1300 mortgage and a $423 motorcycle payment with a 747 FICO score, I am having a difficult time getting a great rate and payment.

Good luck!

I can call Erin tomorrow if you want for a rate. I have your state and age
