Insurance WTF?

ZeeTwentyFour · 03-26-2009, 01:08 PM

My mom just spoke to our agent at Travelers and all I have to say is WTF?
With the information they have on the camaro, it would cost me (19), under my parents policy $10k a year to insure. If my mom wanted to insure it for herself it would be $5k a year.... I dunno if they just don't have any info on it yet and they cant get an accurate quote or what, but if this is the case I am out of the camaro game until I'm either 25 or I win the lotto.

My question to all of you guys is what were you all quoted per year, who your insurance is and all the details. I wanna see why it would cost me so much.

Holy Crap! Do you have......100 DWIs or something?

hahaha that sounds a either a canadian quote, or a "show car" quote

my friend has to file his insurance under "show Car" because his car is not in the system... R34 skyline from japan, keep in mind im in canada

Nope I have a 100% clean record. I'm thinking (and hoping) they just don't have their crap together yet and cant get a good quote out yet. I tried giving them a VIN and the agent said it wont do anything... I remember talking to another member, he said he was quoted $1900/6 months for three cars including the camaro....

Not possible, that is absolutely ridiculous. You will pay the car off in insurance in three years. TOTAL BS!

Go with a different dealer..In Some cases going with the family dealer saves you money, but this will not. Anybody will beat that price...ANYBODY!

Sucks to be young and male. When I was 21 I checked on full coverage on a motorcycle I wanted. The insurance quote for the first year was more than the MSRP of the bike.

not as much as young and female (at least in CA being young/male is cheaper)
