Yep... Pay to play

I'm down to 137 per 6mo.

This is with:
250 collision deduct.
500 non-collision deduct.
100,000 bodily/uninsured/underinsured
100,000 personal
and I believe 30,000 for property damage

I'm 29 and its been steadily going lower

I don't know what discounts I got, but I'm with Farmers Insurance (Formerly AIG Hawaii)

But yes, this car is damn expensive to insure =\

I pay roughly $145/month for my Evo, my Nissan truck, and my Honda RC51.

33, Northern California, Spotless Record, Allstate Insured, mid-range limits and $500 deductables across the board...

Sorry man, but they are going to rape you until you hit 25. Sucks that your rates jumped for no reason, but that's how it goes. Keep shopping around and don't get any tickets or you'll really be up the creek.

Im 27, Yeah sucks to have your insurance go up dramatically. After I totaled my Evo 9, "saddest day of my life btw", almost 2yrs ago, my insurance went up $80 to $210 mo when I got my STI.

Now its $200 with comprehensive, and collision deductibles at $1000 , and the lowest coverages through Esurance. No tickets just 1 accident. Cheapest I could find.


Quick Reply: insurance went up..
