Hi guys. Basically i am moving to Montreal next month and i will be living there for about 6-8 years. I have been sorting up my finances for the last few months, i think i am all set but i still have few questions.
i have been looking for cars (very important to get one ASAP) and i have narrowed my options to: Camaro, Mustange (these are my main two options), Altima coupe, Passat CC, and infinity G sedan. The car will be new and 2011-2012 model.
1) For somebody who is 28 yrs old, male, no credit history or car insurance history in Canada, with international license (i will be applying for Canadian license when i settle), how much the car insurance will be (monthly)? i have tried one of the online car insurance companies and it gave me a $200/month quote for the Camaro 1LT (6 cylinders, 2011, brand new).
2) Also by how much would you think an 8 cylinders car be more expense than a 6 cylinder car in term of the monthly insurance payment?
3) in term of the cost of car maintenance and service, availability of spare parts, and how easy to fix the car, which car brand is most superior in Canada? is it American? Japanese? or European?
4) i am sure some members might think all the above cars are waste of money and will cost me a lot of money in term petrol, insurance, and service
. I do understand this but please entertain my foolishness and please help me with the questions
Though i am open for any suggestion of different cars but please nothing similar to prius, civic, corola, camry, caprice, lumina, accord..etc
Thanks in advance, any advice will be appreciated
