Car Insurance Tango

My daughter just bought a used car. Of course this is a very nice car, witness the info below:

Its a 2001 Honda Accord EX coupe;
Silver/Dark Grey Leather
Sunroof
Power Seat
AM/FM CD & Cassette
Automatic
Anti-Lock Brakes
Front AND Side Airbags
Keyless remote Entry
ohhh by the way - it only has 23k miles
It was a one owner car, 3 year lease with a clean carfax report.
$13,500

Anyway, she called the insurance company this morning -- her insurance, 23 yr old female, driving for 7 years, 1 ticket, no accidents, was $714 for 6 months. Not bad. She also got her name removed from our policy, although she can still drive our cars. That saves us, .... wait for it .... a grand total of $16 for 6 months!!! I guess boys, 21 and 17 really do cost more on the car insurance....

hmmm, 27 yr old male, 1 point away from having my license revoked a few years ago, 5 speeding tickets (2 of which were 20+ mph over the limit), 3 accidents since i was 16, one of which resulted in a totalled car....

and my insurance is less than $714 for 6 months

odd, i SHOULD be paying $714/month

Where do you live :-) I want to move there, and do you have collision on the car? Truthfully, I would be interested to know the company. We have a long standing relationship with this one, but maybe it isn't the cheapest.

Found out who you were after I posted. Think it's the MD VA difference. Just wait until she moves to DC. It will probably go up $300!!
