Best approach for your first insurance on a car is to shop around. Get quotes from the agencies and go with the cheapest. I'm with State Farm and they are one of the few that will take younger drivers without totally killing them. They salvaged me and my spotty driving record and now I'm paying decent rates.

I am 41, live near St. Louis, and only pay $250 every six months for my 10 year old S10 (full coverage), but my insurance company (Country Companies) wants $850 every six months for an '05 GT Mustang! :shock: I am going to check around, but I can't imagine what a 17 year old will have to pay! I tried to get a GT Mustang back when I was 23, and my insurance company at the time (American Family) just said "NO"! :notnice: They wouldn't insure me at any cost, and I didn't have tickets or claims! Good luck guys...

tell you what, that is a major speeding ticket...
at 17, you will be paying a HUGE insurance bill, sorry to bear the bad news
Try and do a little insurance swticharro, have one of your parents be primary driver on the Mustang and you on the generic family sedan. That is about the best you can do.
Because you are 17, speeding ticket or not, you will have a huge insurance bill on any car you own, let alone a Mustang.
I have a clean record and before my 25th birthday (when rates drop in Ontario), I would have paid $5500 for a Mustang GT, now it is "only" $3000 (all figures in monopoly money)

Don't you and your parents get a discount if your on their insurance? I know when I was on my parents insurance I had dirt cheap insurance. Plus my parents got an additional car discount.

For younger people, I would recommend AAA. They are NOT the most competitve for adults, but for younger adults, they are great. If you have above a 3.0 GPA, you save like 600 bucks instantly. You can save a lot with them. Go over and try to work it out with them.

I recommend going in person to several local insurance agents and tell them you are shopping around for the best rate. If you call their 1-800-AND -WAIT number you will be asked a LOT of questions. Plus, when they do it over the phone, they do a credit check on you (without your knowledge). Too any credit inquiries looks bad on your credit. :notnice:
Good Luck!
Good Luck!

Get married :-). When I was 18 I had an LX 5.0 and it was 1200/6 months. Actually, I'd go shop around with all of the big ones like State Farm, Progressive, Geico, etc... Your parents plan would be the cheapest most likely.
