Insurance for a kid as primary driver is fucking absurd.
Still insure it in your name and put minimal insurance on it - no collision - should be cheap as chips. If she bumps a pole or something then who cares? She can practice parking in tight spots and work on those spatial skills with no worries of dinging the paint on your nicer vehicle. Just do it for 3-6 months while she learns to drive and then she can either keep it or dump it for close to what you paid for it. And yeah, an older Honda/Acura would be the ticket - reliable and cheap/easy to fix most maintenance type stuff which you could probably do yourself.
Doesn’t matter with the new ICBC rules. You pay hefty for having a new driver on your insurance. And you should put them on your insurance. If there is an accident caused by the kid they will get you and make you pay dearly.
