Insurance prices...

I am not sure if this is normal, but I called up Allstate (my insurance co.) and they ran some info. If the GO would be under my mothers name, with 5,000 miles a year only for 6 months, it would be $1,900. Thats crazy. Plus a $500 a month payment for the car. That's wild.

How much do you guys pay for insurance a month?

That's what mine is, but I'm an old man with a perfect driving record.
My kids...
They would be close to that for a Stang.

When I had my GT vert I paid about 1100 a year with Progressive. But I'm also an old guy with nothing on my driving record for the last 10 years.

Its the 20 year old . Agent told me that they insure the person not necessarily the car for those over 48. driving habits are pretty much set by that time in life regardless of what you drive. A safe driver by that time is a safe driver weather they are driving an escort a mustang or vet.

Well for Canada my Insurance for replacement is 736.00 plug our basic Gov't end is about another 438.00 - 500.00 ish so ends up close to 1250.00 a year hear and this I don't get from y 05 GT coup the 07 Vert is just a bit less to insure ???
And some places will NOT insure a new Mustang period to high risk a car like we want to crash an almost 50,000.00 car idiots.

I asked our State Farm agent about this after reading your post. She said I could only get that deal if I NEVER drove the car, and trailered her to shows! I asked about just weekend drives, no more than 2500 miles a year. She said no, only to shows. What gives? BTW we don't take her to shows, she's in no condition to be shown!

Maybe I should call another agent?! Could be she was misinformed. We have everything through State Farm and have always been happy. Maybe she doesn't have alot of "classic" auto experience. Thanks for your post though,has me motivated!
