Yeah. I think it's because there are much less claims filed for GT-R's than there are for Z's, so it's a lower risk for the insurance company to insure the GT-R. While each individual claim for a GT-R may be more expensive, GT-R owners are much less likely to file one in the first place. It definitely confused me at first too

I asked my insurance lady what car if any that they would not insure and she said the 300zx. Because of crash tests, claims filed, etc..

Sorry to hear about your accident but I'm glad you're okay.

I would go with the G37 personally. IS350 is nice, but not super sporty and the back seats suck balls, NO adult can really fit back there. Every German car I've ever owned, or my parents owned (going back to the 80's now lol) was a reliablility nightmare and I would not own another one ever, only lease so I could dump the POS before it was out of warrantee.

Odds are, if you were on your bike, you would've been able to avoid the accident, or you'd be dead or super fvcked up, it's kinda all or nothing with a bike.

My wife and I still can't get over the fact that our Z is cheaper to insure than our old GTR was. Crazy, but I think you're exactly right, fewer stupid people doing stupid things in GTRs (happens but it's more rare than with a 30K Z).
