Theft

 

+1...its on the top ten for that list too

 

hmm I had a 94 Mustang vert, and when I went to the Z my insurance went down 1/2.

 

freak, im paying 212 a month for my ZR w/ progressive

 

OK, explain this to me... I recently bought another car for commuting ('93 VW Fox). Picked it up for $350, only 100k miles, has a lot of life left, and I don't have to worry about rock chips, door dings in the city, etc. I just got off the phone w/ my insurance (State Farm) to insure the VW and change the way my Z was insured. So my Z is now considered a pleasure vehicle, <7500 miles/year, full coverage. It costs $550 every 6 mo. The VW, liabilty only, costs $500 every 6 mo. WTF? I have a clean driving record, no accidents, etc. The insurance agent is looking into this for me right now, because this just does not seem right at all. But anyway, if you want to drop the insurance of the Z, pick up a second car. Mine went down from $810 to $550.

 

+1 - the Integra was, too. All the Civic ricers want the better engine.

 

My insurance went down also, the z is cheaper than a toyota tacoma? I pay 618 every six for the z and mustang full/good coverage?? It was alot cheaper when i was married though.

 

I think the list is misleading. Above the list, it says these are the cars with the "most expensive collision losses", NOT that they have the highest insurance rates. My Z is pretty cheap to insure; cheaper than my FX35.

 

i think it might be the most expensive for insurance companies to insure

 

^the cost would trickle down to you, especially since Z's arent a very large market.

I was thinking of pickign up a cheap civic, but it might cost a lot to insure. Now im gonna start to look for domestic cars since they do have a record of being cheaper.

 

IN NYC, to ins a yamaha 600 full coverage is about $7000 for me... which is insane... i only carried liability and it jumped around the $2000 area... its $2400 to insure the Z annually which will definitely be going up soon anyway ... Oh and im not over the 25 mark so i get raped more so i guess

 

what insurance company do you use?

 

ha when the srt4 came out at first it was just a neon, my friend got into a wreck with his, and the insuranc company put on the report aftermarket turbo, wheels ect.... they didnt even know what a srt4 was,

 

full coverage $840 for 6 month
it's cheap.

 

For women, the age for discount is 21. For men, it's 25.

 

That's odd. I just moved from an 03 Tiburon to my 04 Z and I'm saving about $150 a year on insurance. Same company, same policy, same everything.

 

First off, this "list" is BS. some of the info as far as how vehicles are rated are correct. however the actual vehicles listed are not at all true. as would be logical, the most expensive vehicles to insure would be the most expensive ones. your exotic supercars (ferrari, lambo, etc) and high end lux (rolls royce, phantom, etc), however you can't insure those through GEICO, Progressive or any of the mainstream insurance companies. but if you are talking about the mainstream, then the most expensive to insure would be your euro and japanese luxury brands (bmw, mercedes, lexus, etc). there isn't one of those brand models that is cheaper to insure than a 350z. most insurance companies subscribe to a yearly vehicle rating database put out by the Insurance Safety Office and they use that as a guideline for rating vehicles, some insurance companies come up with their own ratings based on the statistics, but they will all come up with nearly identical lists of which vehicles are more expensive to insure and the 350z isn't one of the top 10. **** its not even in the top 20.

 

Yup insuring a bike is a RIP off.

Just better off getting REALLY good health insurance.

 

Just to give you an idea.....Full coverage on a new 350 for a 17 y/o single male insuring on his own policy would be approx 5-6k per year.

 

I agree with showstopper, this list doesn't seem right at all. i can think of at least 10 cars that would cost more than probably any of those on the "top 10" list to insure. almost any bmw with the exception of maybe the x3 and possibly x5. My friend sold his new gt mustang for a 350z and his insurance went down by about 100 a month.

IF it weren't for the jags the mercedes and maybe even the lexus i would say that maybe they p ut some type of price cap on the cars they researched.
