Thank you to all the idiots....
 

I just got off the phone with my insurance company to get a quote for a 300zx twin turbo. In the process, i found out that my 6 month premium on my Z has increased from $1,214.60 to $1,612.00 without a single ticket, accident, or claim. 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:

Why the **** is your 6 month policy that high to begin with? Even 1200/6 is ridiculous.

lol @ jeffblue rant thread.

guys don't forget, one of the best way to avoid an accident is to get a rear view camera, PM JeffBlue if you need one on your OEM navi!

Yea... I hope my rates stay the same or at least drop. Maybe it is time for you to look for a new insurance company.

And yea... your rate is insanely high. My one year is 12xx.

Oh great!

Location, probably. Z's are expensive to insure as well.

Geico tried to add on the same rate adjustment for me. I told them I'd go somewhere else, and they kept my current rate. Worth an ask.

Side note: Current 6 months prem is like 777, with a mustang it drops to 300.

I'll join you in offering a collective :icon23::icon23::icon23::icon23: to all those who have jacked up our insurance rates.

:inoutroflpuke::inoutroflpuke::inoutroflpuke:

mine is around 1200 per 6 months as well....probably because im only 21, and in LI

I shopped around and got quoted by numerous carriers at well over 4K per 6 month period.

full coverage,i'm 22, and i live in the NY metro area. my mom dad is a 62 year old man with a clean driving record and his 2008 g35x costs 815/6mo and thats WITH the multi car discount.

.... no don't do that... please for the love of god... DON'T

You need to put a little effort into trying to find a lower rate instead of a blanket blaming policy to all those who drive the car.

My 370 started at 95 a month then progressively stepped up to 125 when all the morons kept crashing them.

:icon23::icon23::icon23::icon23::icon23::icon23:

980 a year with full coverage, 250 deductible and 500k / 1m coverage

f your vdc statement too, car drives like poop with it on. my prius has a better stability control than the z

i'm not blaming people for my high insurance rates. i'm blaming people for the DELTA between what was my high insurance rate, to what is now my incredibly high insurance rate.

Why don't you shop around then? Look for a jew I mean new insurance carrier and see what they can do for you.

that is a super high insurance.

still holy crap that's high insurance. i'm with AAA and that's me for an entire year!

i'm also fully covered and i live in the los angeles area, home of "OH MY GOD PLEASE WATCH WHERE YOURE DRIVING AND STOP F*CKING TEXTING!!!!!"

i didn't say anything about just turning off VDC. its when people turn it off and then decide to push the car harder than they ever have before. lets not turn this into a VDC Debate. i agree VDC is pretty lackluster and overbearing.


how old are you and who is your carrier?

Jeff, was your VDC off when you made the call to insurance? That could be the reason.

Age, Marriage Status, Driving Record.

wow... my rate with full coverage for the '10 370Z is right about $1000/yr. My '08 Lincoln MKX is $1200/yr!

...but my '85 Suzuki GS850 is only $48/yr lol

My rate increased by over 50% at my last renewal. I was told that the car was still new and the adjustment reflected updated data. I can only think that this has to do with claims by other drivers. $1600/six months is still more than double my premium after the rate hike. That seems way too high.

22, single, clean

...a/s/l?

want some pics ;) maybe with a panda in a 300zx or something?

My insurance just went up do to the "bad economy". Apparently, making only a billion a year in profit is not enough. I'm about to shop.

Definitely switch companies. I was with Geico for over 5 years, no accidents or claims, the rate with the Z was 800/6 months then I shopped around and got $1000 a year with Amica. Geico didn't even offer to beat their rate or anything so screw them.

Even for NYC that seems really high. I don't know how these insurance companies come up with these rates though... my gf just started looking for insurance for her new 2011 rogue and she got quoted 500-700 more than me for my Z and she's over 25, no accidents or tickets on record. I would have thought she'd at least pay the same or less than me...

That's why.

When you turn 27 (i believe is the break) and get married it will drop huge!

NO SOUP FOR YOU!! er.... I mean no insurance for you!

well, i'm on my parents policy (with the car registered to me and with me as the primary driver) and i've been under the impression that would save me money. Seems like i may be better of on my own policy... but then again 22 with your own policy and 2 sports cars is... :ugh:

Im 21 on my own policy with not married...one accident, and like i said im paying 2400 per year...

and that was the Lowest BY FAR... i was given quotes of 8K for 6 months, no joke

THATS WHY THEY CALL IT QUOTES, DUMASS. U CALL N GET A QUAOT ON UR INSURENCE TO DESIDE IF ITS A BETTER DEEL THAN WUT U GET ON UR PERANTS POLICEE. OK?

jeez.

:)

I have my car under my parents name and its currently at $450/6 months. Just for fun I wanted to see how much it would be if I had put it under my name and it came out to be $2600/6 months :eek:
BTW, I'm 21 and I have an accident on my record from last year.

Also when I was still shopping for my car and getting quotes for insurance I remember that a GT-R cost like $6 less per month to insure than the Z (under my parents name).

quick... run and get Steve's blood pressure medicine.



NO, NOT THE VIAGRA.....!

you went full retard.... NEVER go full retard.


which carrier?

wow thats INSANE. theres a big difference in the rate when you aren't listed as the primary driver... because they assume its a middle aged person driving the car.

Ummmm.....your wat? :icon14: :p

My current carrier is Geico, but I literally searched for quote through about 50 different companies... some of which I even knew the owners personally, and they were way out there as well

So you're telling us you just spent $394.40 on ballons? Man, did you get screwed!

wow that's not bad for being 21 and on your own policy in NY. that's fully coverage?

Definitely time to switch insurance companies, I am 20 and my insurance is much lower than your original price. But don't blame the guys who crashed, it is not their fault VDC didn't kick in enough yo.

humm....my last payment for 6months was less than $300...

My rate just went up from 780/6 months to 960/6 months with Allstate. Clean record, no tickets in the last 6 years. I got a quote from Gieco for around 720/6 months so I'm gonna be switching. Its complete BS if you ask me.

see guys this is what i'm saying. regardless of how bad my rates are.... the car got reassessed.... and i think we all know why.
