I live in VA with State Farm Insurance, and recently my Auto Insurance has gone up because the safety rating has recently been changed. Has anyone else noticed this happening?

 

Same thing happen to me with Allstate. I'm going to call them and find out why.

 

I had the same **** happen to me.. went up almost 50$ a month! I've also got State Farm.

 

I am with Farmers and it went up as well. I called my agent and he told me that it was a "Reclassification" of the car that shot my insurance up. That Blows!!!!

 

Exactly what my agent said. I turn 25 in october so it will go down again but still.. It would be nice to get some of the thousands of dollars I've paid into "insurance" back.

 

mine went down $40 a month.

 

I made a thread about this a couple weeks ago. It turned into "I pay $$$$/month" thread. Anyways, I figured they increase premiums because they were insuring it for too low in '03 and '04. Now they have historical data of cost, repairs, thefts, etc. for the EVO.

 

Mine's gonna go up...I just got a moving violation...

 

How much do you guys pay on insurance every 6 months?
I use Progressive. Has anyone heard good things about Esurance?

 

I am going to be pissed if mine goes up. $20 will push it over the 400 mark.

 

I use GMAC or GMC and I only pay about 900 every 6 months and thats with full coverage!!!!!!!!!!

 

Been there done that, my rate doubled. I took my policy somewhere else.

 

Geico stuck mine up too. Basically what they said is because the risk on the car has gone up. Now we know who to be thanking dont we??? Its all these morons that cant drive that like to drive fast cars and run them off the road. The EVO community has no one else to blame but itself. Our cars dont have a high risk from theft, and only a slight risk from vandalism. So place the blame on the driving habits of the owners, not me or you or any of the safe and competent ones, but on those who cant understand that every car has limits, as does every driver. Driving within those limits is what separates the men from the boys. So do us all a favor and either figure out what the limits are and drive within them, or go buy a Honda

 

That's exactly why the national age to get a driver license should be 18. Also mandatory retesting every X years would be good too. but then what excuse would the insurance companies have for high rates?

 

Do you mean $400 each month or for half year? If latter, then congratulations!!

The local Evo owners all got an increase in insurance premiums. Mine is due in a month...

I pay about $650 for six months ($500 deductable)
