I'm 16 and my insurance is like $110/month. We put the car in my dads name and didn't put me as a primary driver of any of our cars. I'm an additional driver on them, makes it much cheaper. I also have no tickets(knocks on wood), took drivers ed(discount), and got some good grades discounts.

i disagree. no TCS+learning driver=spinouts=crash.

try closer to at least 300+. and if u get a ticket its gonna be worse.
put the car in mom/dads name, and get on their policy. then put u as the driver to moms car. voila, problem solved.

150 a month, uncle is an insurance man for state farm and im 21... i would say honestly full coverage under parents policy probably best to insure you under another car, and dad or mommy under that Z get the price withing 250 -300 range otherwise probably 500+ for just you.

Well my son is 16 and he only has a permit, here in nj you cant get your license until you have had your permit for 6 months or until your 17 , which ever comes first. how is it in Connecticut?
