GEICO Raising Rates?????
So I just got my renewal notice for insurance in the mail with Geico, and apparently the Z is classified differently than it was in the last six months as a car that is "not as safe as was once considered to be." They said that this is across the board though and an independent company researched this for them so they had to change the code on the Z's, OMG WHAT BS! I found out the info on that when I called them up and asked what the deal was. Now they want like $280/mo from me for insurance on the car! I'm 23/m and single and have a couple of tickets too needless to say. I'm not sure what to do about this, I still have a month to go on my policy as you pay in advance on these types of deals and I'm paid up so far. Does anyone have any reccommendations on what company to go with? Any help would be great and I would switch easily if there was a marked difference in price, Thanks Guys!
Geico gave me a horrible quote when I was shopping for insurance, so I decided to keep looking and found a much better quote. I say keep shopping around before it expires and see if you can get a better deal with some1 else. Good luck.

I have GEICO, I'm 30 and I have no claims for the last 7 years.
My 6 months coverage is $605.
Here's the break down on my coverage:
2004 NISSAN 350Z
BODILY INJURY LIABILITY $25,000/$50,000
PROPERTY DAMAGE LIABILITY $15,000
UNINSURED MOTORIST BODILY INJURY $25,000/$50,000
UNINSURED MOTORIST PROPERTY DAMAGE $15,000
COMPREHENSIVE (OTHER THAN COLLISION) N/A $500 DED
COLLISION N/A $500 DED
EMERGENCY ROAD SERVICE N/A NON-DEDUCTIBLE
RENTAL REIMBURSEMENT $600
You guys might check out Esurance.com. They literally cut my old rate in half although I don't own a Z yet. I have full coverage on a 2003 Spec-V and a 2005 Legacy for myself (24 yrs old, one ticket) and my wife (24 yrs old, no tickets) and pay $720 every 6 months.
It really saved me a ton of money as most other companies were looking to charge us $1,400 for the exact same coverage.
As an interesting side note - the Spec-V costs more to insure than the new Legacy.

Dude for six months its like $1,650 or something, and that's with all $1,000 ded's. I guess I'll shop around and see what's up, I think the whole deal is a scam really but what can you do. Anyways, When you have a lein on a car then you have to insure it fully anyways.

okay none of you guys can COMPLAIN about your INSURANCE rates... i'm 17/m, been in 4 accidents (totals), 2 speeding, 2 improper lane change, and 1 running red light.
my 1000 deductible every 6 months from geico is 3634. yes that's correct three thousand six hundred and thirty four dollars.

In fact, if you did all that listed above in a Z, then you are one of the ones helping the rates for ALL Zs go up.
+1 on the Esurance. I'm in Northern Cali and my 6 month premium is $520 with the same coverage as MCHONG75. 30 years old with no claims for the last 4 years. Keep in mind that the rates may be different depending on location and zip code... and btw, Geico sucks.. they gave me a ridiculous quote when I did it online... so yeah, check out Esurance..
