SFU is in the Lower Mainland. :lol:
thanks but no thanks, gas will be hitting $1.50 in the summer
so its probably not a good time to get a 6.6 / 7.5 V8 which weights over 2 tonne. :lol:
btw, I will be doing daily trip from lower mainland to SFU burnaby.
What about an old Subaru Forester? Or an old Outback?
Cobol74, Vancouver is a major city on the west cost of Canada so I doubt he will be in the wilds much. When I was up north the thing i noticed the most was 1) Most people had really crappy cars...
2nd hand cars are so fricik'n expensive in Van.
About how much are late 90s 2.5RSs selling for up there?
I really those.

Ummmm unless they changed something since I used to live there, that sounds like BS.I havent get any quotes from ICBC yet, but I heard that I will be paying more than $3000 a year.

They can't discriminate against a young driver because they're government owned. So age isn't even a factor in their equations. I was only paying about 1200-1300 a month when I lived there, and I was about your age. I may have already had a couple years under my belt and that was when the discounts were higher... but still, nowhere near 3 grand. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
Have you considered a Mazda MX5 "Miata"? it seems like a good mix of fun and gas mileage, and i cant imagine the insurance is very expensive.
A few minor modificiations and it can become a great street legal track car as well...
Ouch! Because of that, your parents ended up paying? That's brutal.
I'm not really sure what to think about ICBC; sometimes I think its rates are rediculous, but then I hear horror stories about private insurers not paying out, or simply not insuring people due to varying causes. And if you get speeding tickets with the frequency that I do...you're just plain uninsurable.
