Hey man I am also 16 and I have a 85 300zx Turbo, my insurance is pretty high because it is a two door, two seater, sports car, and on top of that it says Turbo on the registration, my insurance is around 1600 every 6 months, but its worth it! I am just waiting for my car to become a classic so my insurance will drop, i am not sure how many years it is before they consider the car a classic.

O-k, well I ahve a '85 300ZX Turbo, inssurance for me is 1,180 a year.

That is beause I get 15% off for having above a 3.0 GPA, and I watched some video and signed a paper that gave me another 15% off.

It was cheaper to insure me under my '85 Z than a '91 Dodge Caravan (van) all becasue of how old it is.

And cars become classics after 20 years.

af are decent, but more of a generic forum, i mean, they have them for pretty much every car, if you ask me, it just doesnt have a big following here, not many posts per day

I am also 16 (well i will be in october) and i have the same question. A friend wants to sale me his 1990 300ZX non-turbo (for now ) for $6000. To top this off it has a new engine with only 20,000 miles on it and its a pre production model. How much would insurance be on this car if its not a turbo?

Talking Go for the Z

Hey dude, go for the Z car - Its AWESOME. Yes, the insurance may be a little high...but it will probably lower when you get older. I've had my Z TTurbo since I was 16 too, Red/black.

I dunno, but let's look at it this way. Sixteen years old + 300zxtt + sports car rate at insurance company for sixteen year old male(assuming u are male) new to driving = Very Expensive even with the good grade/drivers ed. discount

The only way to find out is have your parents call up a couple insurance companies to get some quotes.

i heard that insurence companies catagorize the cars by their performance measures, and their body styles.
it is differed from company to company,
but according to nationwide, they say that
300z is in the same catagory as a corvette.
which means that the insurence cost will the same as driving a corvette
and on top of that having two turbos!!!!
im not sure about the older generations, but 1990+ really definately
a sky-rocketing price!!!
