well i would assume that a 4 door, 1.3 liter car will be less on the insurence than a 2.0 L, VTEC, 2 door sports car. even if that is a fwd "sports car" that gets no traction off the line (in case you cant tell, i dont like the rsx)

i'd say yes. My rx was cheaper than my 03 Ford F150. It's considered a 4 dr sedan. What a great car. I can run you a quote but it probably won't be accurate for your state but it'll give you a pretty good idea.

My insurance for the RX-8 went up about $225.00 a year more than my 93 RX-7.
Not too bad, pretty close to what I expected.

Clean record doesn't meen anything unless it's been clean for at least three years. I'm 26, and insurnce in Washington State (I think we have the second highest insurance rates) is about $75 a month....$870 every six months for the '04 RX-8, and '04 325i. But that is multiple car discounts, clean record for the last...forever, and through an insurance company that only deals with military personnel.
17 years old with marks on his record? Probably too much, unless your parents pay for it then there's no such thing as too much right!?!

A 97 Jetta cost me more to insure
I traded in a '97 VW Jetta GLS on my 04 RX8, and my insurance actually went down.
It only went down by about $20 / 6mo, ...but it still went down. Go Figure.
It's only fair to point out that I had the dealer install a LoJack system, Which Progressive gives a 20% discount for. Without this, my 8 would have cost me a little more to insure than the Jetta I had been driving. The difference LoJack made in my car payment was less than the difference it made in my monthly insurance premiums, so it was a no-brainer.

Dood, just go to Esurance.com and pull up a quote.
