hey guys, i've narrowed it down to an 05 or 06 coupe, but have an insurance question...the insurance is DOUBLE for an 05 than it is for an 06...anyone have a reason? i called progressive and they didn't have an answer either, just said it may be based on safety features in the 06 compared to the 05. I thought they were similiar. Thanks for the help

 

how much are you paying?? i pay $1200 per year FARMER INSURANCE Premium packet

 

i was quoted for 2200 for the year for the 06...i also have a dwi on my record...05 was quoted for almost 5K with progressive.

 

That is really strange... To my knowledge all of the safety features are the same. Unless they consider projector headlights and Bluetooth safety features...

 

I pay $1200 a year with Travelers Insurance for an 05 Coupe.

 

A little over 1200 a year with usaa here.... 630 every 6 months... Im 24 clean record...

 

hey it's depend on your age and years of driving... every year your insurance will drop.. try to get family packet.. that will help you save alot of money.. bring your parent, brothers, sisters all in 1 packet..

 

2800 a year im 21 and under my own insurance

also in jersey =(

 

also i have a 19mph over speed limit on my record...

geico is the cheapest insurance for tristate residents between the 18-26 age bracket...

 

840 a year full coverage from allstate w/ $500 deductable in my momma name :/
quoted@ 4850+ a year in mine

 

yea i actually like the 05 better but if the insurance is double for no reason then my decision is much easier

 

and make sure you don't let them know if you mod your car! HAHA I had Mercury and they sent me a notice of cancellation after an accident they came to the conclusion that my car was too low to the ground.

 

Who knows why insurance companys do whatever it is they do. I know they
gladly take our money! But I also know you need to shop around for coverage
on your car, check with Auto Club. My son saved $800 a year by switching
from Farmers to Auto Club, that a chunk of change.

 

$570/yr State Farm with multi line discount, 500/500 deductable, 27yrs old no accidents. Can't beat the good life in South Dakota!

What suprised me is my 03 Eclipse GTS was slightly more expensive to cover. When I got my '06 G35c 6MT, they added some safety discount and somehow it ended up being cheaper. Same thing happened when I went from a Geo Metro to a Z24 Cavalier. They said that Metros get totaled too often so the ins on a Cavalier was cheaper.
