Just got an insurance quote on a 2003 Cobra convertible

[Ateup]

Same year as my GT, insurance only going up about $4 a month. Was expecting it to be worse than that.

so what are you waiting for?!?!

 

[mazen189]

is this full coverage?

 

[Ateup]

is this full coverage?

Yes, with $500 deductible.

 

[Crzyhrse]

After your first ticket it'll be a $400 difference.

Not too bad.

I went from a $250 monthly insurance payment (after numerous tickets, reckless driving citation, and even a suspended license) on my old 01 GT to $65 a month simply after turning 25 lol

That's pretty dang funny.

Yeah, mine is like $45/month right now for my Stang. Helps that in 25 years of driving I've never had an insurance claim.

If you aren't going to drive it much, get it insured as a leisure vehicle. I can only drive my Cobra for 7000 miles a year, but it knocked the insurance down and I doubt I'll get anywhere near 7000.

Thanks for the info.

im 35 now and paying a $180 month, because i got 6 speeding tickets in one year,
when i had the T/A, before the same coverage was. $75

 

[Ateup]

6 tickets in 1 year??....you deserve to pay that much in insurance.

 

[CrimsonStang]

I'm 45 and pay $33 a month for my 04 GT in NY which has some of the highest rates (zero deductible/full coverage with Hagerty Ins.). I had to show that it's not my daily driver though.

thats one thing i hate about insurance companies. Total age discrimination if you ask me. I have a clean record besides a cell phone ticket and a tint ticket and get horrible rates. But i try and fight the system by having my 55 yr old mom as first driver and me as secondary. helps a bit.

I think it's a pretty solid fact that inexperienced drivers have the highest rate of accidents.
