Insurance rates depends more on location then anything... I was 21/22 paying 215 p/m on full coverage with 100/300 limits... Esurance rocks! lol...
As far as gas milage; tell them whatever is on the window sticker - I don't think it's over 20mpg, lol.. I know personally I got about 15-18mpg on my ported blower Cobra... depending on the highway, cruise control, my head.... etc.
I will second what xxkazp3rxx says about esurace. I just got an 03 termi when I was 23 and I have clean record and my insurance is about 140 monthly on full coverage with 100/300 limits. As far as gas mileage, if you drive moderately you should get 18 to 19 between city and highway. It's just hard not to drive it like you stole it.
I have great rates and i had 3 tickets before but that didnt jump my rates. I have a 96 svt cobra and i pay 98 a month full coverage, when i turned 21 it went from 140 a month to the 98

not yet. i got the go ahead from bank n parents. insurance said around 100 a month (anything u could possibly have insured, my family does with this one guy). my dads an old car guy (mustangs too) and he convinced me to hold out for my dream car, and not settle for something around here or cheap. so it WILL be a sonic blue coupe. its tough to travel to see them though

you guys are not very smart for the money you pay on insurance you could buy a second car. Buy a 95 honda civic insurance it with low coverage then call heacock collector insurance and pay 200 a year like I do $250 a month for insurance is stupid I have friends with dui s driving $40k cars paying $130 a month Buyer be wear on a 59k mile cobra Iam sure the last own didnt drive it hard ha ha ha yeah right!
Just bought another cpbra its a 98 $135 a year $12k agreed value no deductiable 250/500 1990 gt same $48 a year $4k value 1965 fast back $200 a year $35k value 1970 428scj $350 a year $65k value 03 cobra $200 a year $26k value 68 gt/cs $225 a year $45k value
You just need a DD and they match the coverage
$250 a month take the extra $200+ a month and put miles on a junky car that you can drive in the rain and snow
I am old (40) and have a good driving record. I pay $459 every six months for 100/300 which is about $77/month. Now as for gas mileage I have never really gotten better than 14mpg per tank as I CANNOT keep my foot out of it.
