So I'm pretty sure no one will even offer me theft/fire or comprehensive coverage. Would any Canadians in here know?

Also, selling seems odd, it's my dream car and I just got it last year. It's just basically 3 more months (before I can get my full license and insurance). Selling this and re-buying a car in March would cost me thousands extra (assuming I'm re-buying the same car back). When I bought the car I didn't think I'd be moving out so soon and thought I'd be able to stay on my Mom's insurance during the duration, things changed.

As for removing the insurance breaking my loan agreement, you mean with the dealership or the bank? That's interesting, haven't heard that before and don't think they'd even have any idea.
Do you realize that you will likely be paying around 5K annually for full coverage once you get your full license? Can you afford that?

If I was in your shoes, I would likely sell it and drive a beater for a few years. You can always buy another down the road. If you choose to keep it I would recommend a secured storage locker facility until you can afford the insurance.

The bank owns the car, not you. Miss a few payments and they will for sure. You are required to have full coverage.
