I don't know about the insurance, but the mods will kill your wallet for sure

Welcome to the forum! I would hold off on doing any major mods that will dig into your wallet until you know what your insurance is going to cost annually. Being 18 you should probably take it easy for a while and be smart about spending money.

Hi there! Welcome to the forums! Congratulations on actually owning your e60! The bank owns mine, but I will get it from the bank someday!
The insurance will be higher becuase of your age, but that's about it.
Enjoy your car and enjoy the forums. I have learned alot since becoming a member. The folks here are great.

Best bet if you can, have the car listed under your parents insurance if you can, that way you guys get a multicar discount. If not try Progressive or Nationwide, as they have always been pretty reasonable.
GL and dont forget...we luv pics here, so post away...that way you have before and after photos!
