Default Parents are purchasing another Civic.

2006 Civic

This one will be for the mom, and she'll only be driving it on the weekends, so would insurance be cheaper than the regular stuff? This is how we're currently insured:

2004 Honda CR-V - Dad
2005 Honda Civic - Mom
1987 Toyota Cressida - Me

So what am I supposed to tell them? That my mom likes to drive a newer Civic on the weekends?

Don't get it confused with a "weekend car." She'll only drive it on the days that she's off on that doesn't coincide with my dad's day off. My dad and her work at the same place during the week, so my dad just drives them both to work regularly.

We bought it today too!

My car needs a wash.

I can't do that...she's already on the insurance as the primary driver for the 2005 Civic.

Neither have been in any wrecks or have received any tickets. They both about 50 years old. Would it be cheaper for my mom because she's a woman?
