well you have to look at who is buying ZO6s and who is buying EVOs ?

Just look around the forum, and you will see multiple threads about wrecked Evos. Thats why our insurance is so high

I have a IX and I currently pay 510/6 months so i guess thats 2040 for the year. I only have 1 ticket for the past 3 years... Insured with State Farms. If I don't get rich in a couple of years say 5 or 7 years then I will have to get rid of my Evo and get something lighter maybe a Ford Thunderbird


When I was in the service USAA is the only company that will take me coz LOL but as time flown by my record was cleaner and cleaner so I decided to try other companies. Bristol was very cheap, and then I switched to State Farm.

Queco looks at your driving record for the past 7 years, State Farms and other companies will only look at the past 3 years way better if you been driving more responsible lately which i have.

You should als go to little insurance offices where they can check on different companies, that way you can get a better offer. Say if you go directly to Farmers, AllState and **** then you're more than likely you'r enot getting the best offer. YOu should always go to those little insurance offices around mini mall, here in Los Angeles there are so many.

Night its late

510 x2 =1020. Maybe you meant every 3 months you pay 510?

I pay 635 every 6 months. 30 years old, single, no kids. Multi-car, homeowners, no tickets, no accidents. Out of all the bill's I pay in life, I get so pissed writing a check for car insurance.

It is legalized extortion.

Yeah, the 08 c6 should be the ticket. Rumours indicate power output will be in the 430-450 hp range. I wish the C6 had a "hardtop" version like the C5.

isnt one of the reasons for us having such high insurance is because parts for this car is more expensive.. american car obviously cheep parts if damaged.. (i cant rational the bmw though) thats why many cars dont have a fmic, because its easily damaged in an accident
