Hold on! Don't stop on the way taking the vehicle home to get insurance! For sure you will then have an accident with the vehicle and won't have any coverage.The carrier you were "going to get insurance with" won't be a nice guy and back date the policy to cover it. You won't be allowed to drive the car off a dealer's lot without showing you have insurance. You will need to call and get coverage before you drive off. You can call the big carriers like GEICO, Progressive, etc. pretty much 24/7 to buy a policy. The dealer will probably have info available there. They may recommend a company too. You don't have to go with that company, but be prepared. If you don't already have insurance that's the problem. It's easier when you already have a policy like a parent's or your own with another vehicle on it because you can just call and add it there or within a few days (you have 30 days of coverage automatically for the most part if you already have a policy on another vehicle).

chris is right for the most part but one important thing to note, if you are currently on your parents policy and buying a car in your name you will NOT be able to add it to their policy so dont assume you will. you can call and get quotes once you have a car in mind (vin #s help so you might want to write it down if you see a car you like). just let them know that you still arent sure what kind of car or when you will be buying. they should be able to run your motor vehicle record and get everything started so that when you do find a car then can just re-quote you with that car and start the coverage. Plus most dealers will request proof of insurance before they let you leave with the car.

My first automobile become a 1999 Honda Accord Ex 5 speed. I enjoyed to rigidity it even though it did take slightly maintenance. It relies upon on how plenty you're able to opt for to spend. i don't probable advise a Honda too plenty because of the fact lots of the time once you get in a harm (greater suitable than a fender bender) it quite is totaled. in the past buying a vehicle, i opt for to advise getting a CARFAX. Jeeps - mothers and dads had a 1999 and had to swap 2 tranmissions interior 5 years and that they take stable care of their automobiles. They offered it kind new Audis are quite often high priced .. lower back it relies upon on your budget once you're finding for an SUV type, i could say a Ford Explorer. they are sufficiently huge to take acquaintances out yet not too huge to the place it feels like youre utilising a bus :) stable luck!

After purchasing the car, stop at an insurance store near you.
Any local insurance outfit can help you. You might want to try calling a few companies near you, and get a quote for the new vehicle.

even better... if you have several cars in mind, you can contact insurance agents and have them give you quotes for each car. That way you will know if one car is more expensive to insure than the other.
you can also go online to sites like progressive.com, aisinsurance.com geiko.com etc to get online quotes.
