I'm really glad I didn't have that car when i was 16, my dad made me start out on 4cyl. avenger, then I saved and got a v6 camaro, then the SS.
Thank your parents for LETTING you not start out in an LS1 lol. Plus, it's alot better to you when YOU actually buy it.

I just picked up a 93 z28 as posted in my sig, and I will be 19 this month. The first car I drove was a 1993 s10 with a 4 cylinder, it was great, couldn't get any tickets in it, the top speed was governed at 88 mph. Then I drove a 91 integra with a 5 spd, did some stupid **** in it like lots of burnouts, and put a hole in the transmission because the diff gears let loose on the street. That car was completely stock...pos japanese products. My z28 is a great car, I wanted one for a while, my buddy has a 68 Camaro SS, that is a little custom, billet wheels, lowered, etc. I have almost spun around in the z due to bald tires, I would not recommend having one as a first car.

If you have a good agent they will find you the cheapest route.

Well, the Camaro I'm looking for when I get my license (next June) so that's not a major thing right now.
The car is a 97' Sentra POS. I don't know which parent is primary or if my sister is secondary. But I'll check into that. Right now I'm not on the insurance though.
