Jeff, did you find a 300zx already or were you still looking? Tough to find a good one that hasnt been abused.

Go online and put your information in a Progressive Insurance quote. Hopefully it will be better.

I'm saving $2.4k a year with all my stuff because I signed up with the above and called my company to quit their coverage. They came down to meet what Progressive offered so I went back.

Gotta love competition between insurance companies.........

They have reassessed the cars risk factor in the past few months, and i would just like to thank all the idiots who crashed their Z's by doing stupid shit like driving in the snow with summer tires, turning off VDC and deciding to learn to drift on public roads, etc, etc.

Accidents happen, and often times its no ones fault, and the most important thing is that no one gets hurt. But if you crashed your 370z by being a moron, i would like to hereby thank you for raising my insurance premiums:tup:

Here's some balloons:

Shop around, get a different car, or quit crying. I had an accident, so what. No matter what type of car you get theres always going to be collisions. After they totaled my car and renewed my policy it went from $98 to $104. No tickets were issued. I turned 25 two days ago.

You said Geico....that is your first issue. They wanted some god awful amount to insure my R6, I went to state farm and pay like 360 for 6 months full coverage.

I use USAA for all my insurance except for my bike. Of course you have to be military or your parents had to be military to be able to get it. I even get a dividend check every year from them, which lowers my yearly amount by like 60-80 bucks.

Try statefarm, they have some pretty reasonable rates. Your big kicker is your age, regardless of record that is going to kill your rates.

Footloose301 03-03-2011 01:30 PM

Yep, Geico sucks. I switched to Progressive and my premiums got cut in half.

sig11 03-03-2011 01:33 PM

Oy. I guess I need to go insurance shopping. I like my agent but apparently $1100/6 is high. :) I guess living 1mi from Detroit probably doesn't help me though.

Decoy_TT 03-03-2011 01:36 PM

I am 27y/o and have a ticket on record but no accidents. Statefarm, my current carrier, quoted me $157 a month give or take a few bucks (I didnt write the quote down as it was just a first call type deal).

That's about 50 bucks more then I pay for my Dodge Neon and 90TTz currently. So not too bad considering it's a brand new 40k car. If anything I'm being way overcharged for my dodge neon, lol!

Chiming in...
Through USAA I pay 655 per 6 moths for these two (full coverage on the 370 and liability on the 240)
