Don't forget about getting insurance with your parents. If the opportunity is there, might as well use it.

My car is the 5th car in my family, I told my dad I would pay the difference of what he paid before I bought my ITR-worked nice. Because there are 5 cars, the discount is pretty good, not to mention my company has the lowest rates already.

The 10 most stolen car list in 2004 was 50% integras, so they are definitley hot items-just make sure she's always tight.

Use your judgement about getting the ITR. Between theft/insurance/work/gas/experience. It's good you're not rushing into getting it, justify it to yourself and your bank account before you make a move.
