Insurance on SS
I currently have a 2006 Chevy Cobalt LT and am looking to upgrade to an SS sometime soon. I am 18 and have no tickets and my record is clean, I am also female. I live in Findlay, Ohio.
My question is how much more would my insurance go up.. I'm just looking for an estimate!

Depends on what SS you buy. my 06 SS was a lot cheaper than my 08 cause my insurance didn't deem my 06 a High performance vehicle. still, I had a few tickets and my insurance was 180 a month full coverage for just me. my 08 would have been around 250-300 a month but its dropped now since I hit 25

Thank you! I'm looking for a white or yellow SS.. I want a newer one but we'll see what I can find!
Asking about how much insurance would go up.. Don't need your attitude .

the main thing that's going to affect your insurance cost is the fact that's you're still under 25 years of age. Currently with my lsj (ss/sc) I am paying less than 100 bucks a month, and that's full coverage.

Just search AutoTrader for a SS/SC or SS/TC, take the VIN and get an insurance quote from an insurance company's website, it's free and it will give you a preliminary figure on what you'll be paying.
Good luck!

I'm paying $180 and I'm very unhappy about that! I have 3-4 speeding tickets, 3 this year and one a couple years ago, not sure if the other dropped or not
No one to blame but myself!

It is a fun car, but if you knew me personally, you'd know I don't drive fast normally. The first 2 were me datalogging my car (hints why I hate datalogging, canned tunes FTW). 3rd was me not paying attention to the speed limit and following the flow of traffic and I hit a speed trap and they pulled all 3 of us over. Was going 12 over 
The older one was in my Integra and not sure if it's off my record or not, 90 in a 55! Ruined my year, but got it reduced to careless driving or something like that. So technically 3 speeding tickets, but 4 infractions!

07 SS, 24 male with no moving violations and I'm paying 180 a month for full coverage-.-
If you insure under your parents tho and your a student, there may be additional discounts to lower your rate. When I bought my car my insurance told me my insurance would be about 30$ cheaper if I went under my parents...but I wanted my car in my name only
Lol if you buy a SS, chances are you won't be driving the speed limit for long

wtf... it must be who im with, or the state im in, im paying $299 a month full coverage, had some tickets but they got knocked off, yall def dont want to know how much i was paying when the tickets were still up there.......
21 and I pay $157 for my SS and beater neon. HHR has full coverage and beater has liability.
Insurance companies prolly look at a cobalt being more of a risk then a HHR though. I also had 3 tickets when I was 18.
