Wow, you guys are paying $200/month for insurance??? I am definitely paying far less. In fact, if I were to make some additional but minor changes, I would be paying around $150/month for insurance on the Z. By the way, I drive less than 8,000km annually. My 2005 Acura RSX has only about 66,000km mileage at the moment. Sadly, my RSX got rear-ended three times in the last five years. That's twice at the same intersection. And the cost of repair through insurance has been less than $800 for all three.

To be more precise I pay $16x.xx/mth. $200/mth is just a round up and not exactly what I'm paying. Just easier to calculate.

LOL, that's one heck of a round up. $160 is much cheaper than $200 a month. That would amount to an additional $480 a year if you were paying the latter for car insurance.

By the way, a question on insurance, I know some insurance offers $0 deductible and etc. but your monthly premium goes up. What's your take on that ? Is it really worth getting $0 deductible for collisions and upsets as well as no coverage for windshield repair.

Wow, you guys are lucky (or i should really shop around), I thought $188/mo was a good deal!

I got winter tires but still stored my car, but of course my winter car has all seasons (long story lol)!
