The car is under my parents name and I'm secondary for AAA and no accidents. They tell me it's $1200 a year for a 92 SC300 5spd, however they said it would be $400 if I wasn't enlisted. They also told me the insurance depends on the year, because the value drops as the car gets older.

i have a 1993 SC300 and i have liability and comprehensive, and i only pay $100 a month. thats no accidents and no points through allstate. i may go with full coverage becuase its only $135 a month. im still under my parents though.

I have a '92 SC300 with full coverage ($250 deductable for comprehensive and collision) and pay $88 a month. I have a clean record and recieve a good student discount and a safety program discount (because I watched a safety video and answered a few questions). I am 23 years old and have State Farm.

I am in the military as well, and currently have USAA on my 1996 SC300. I have complete and full total utter coverage (since I am financing the car still).
At 23 years of age, no tickets in last three years, with USAA,
I pay 697 every six months.
So look to pay more than that with your tickets. USAA rocks, by the way.

rushgator...the rates are better on the SC than the prelude??? thats what i like to hear. of course my prelude is a '91, what year was yours. im sure the newer preludes are a bit more than the 3rd gens. but it sounds like an SC will prolly be the same or a bit cheaper then my lude. i asked a guy one time how his insurance was and he said his SC is cheaper than the 4 door v6 accord he had. oh well, hopefully i can work sumthing out. im just tired of this wrong-wheel drive crap, its time for some rear wheel drive action.
