the best thing to do if possible is to get on your parents ins, but if you cant and im sure some new york guys will chime in here it will be at least 2k a year if not more, young age and a powerful car doesnt sit well with ins companys, since your new here you should put this thread on the northeastern- fbody section, you will get more replies from guys in your area

well in nyc they tried to kill me with ins. I was 22 but didnt have my license for 3years quite yet, and got a quote from allstate of $10K/year full or $3000/year liability. I laughed. I put it in my dads name and now I pay about $1600/year full coverage.

I'm 24 now but when I bought the camaro I was 21. My insurance then was around $1600-$1900 every six months. I'm in Michigan with no fault insurance so that might have something to do with it. My driving record isn't perfect either.....trust me.

pianoman35 you said upstate newyork right. If thats the case, your insurance will be less than someone living in NYC. Just have your parents call their insurance and ask.
