Yeah BC is dirt cheap compared to state farm and others in canada. ICBC is a crown corporation and only charges your rate based on the weight of the vehicle and your driving record. For example I had a perfect driving record in BC for six years eh!I had my 93 rx-7, you would think at 21 years old back then, my insurance would cost maybe at least 3000 bucks a year, maybe 4 k. Imagine my surprise when i found out it was only 900 bucks full coverage a year, million dollar policy to boot! it was so good that when i moved to the states eh!, i kept my policy for five years until I could afford to get florida insurance. well actually i crashed and that was the end of my canadian discount. I don;t think you;ll pay 3k a year for that car . For example down here in Florida my C32 full coverage at 30 years old is 68 bucks a month!!!!

keep your bc plate
some of the bc natives
keep their bc plate due to crazy insurance prices.
try to keep your address somehow
even if it means you've moved into your friends basement...

my insurance was so crazy i couldn't afford to drive.
i was paying 10,000 dollars for a 30,000 dollar car.
