Yep, they sure are.. If you want something that'll be cheap to insure, but an old skool Beetle or a Civic..

actually I dont think the 240 is considered as much a sports car as many other models. I'm only paying $750 a YEAR: that's less than my Father's Saturn SL1. Call your insurance company and get a quote on the car. Its not TOO bad though- those back seats are good for something, at least.

yeah it's from USAA, I'm 20 years old in Connecticut... I've got a good student discount and some discount cause I've had my licence for 4 years or something... Look into it if you (or one of your parents) has served in the armed services... it's a pretty sweet deal.

You must get straight A's to get that discount

Eh not really... B's and an occasional A... Maybe the 240 is rated lower by USAA cause it's an older car? Donno...

21st century quoted the 240sx fastback as a hatchback, insurance is dirt cheap.

Through the insurance company my family uses, California Casualty, my '89 was not considered a sports car, and it's $400 a YEAR to insure me right now, being 15. That could change if I change it to primary driver when I get my license (they cant now because I dont have my license), but it all depends on the company.
