Back seats may be useful as well as lower insurance due to back seats. Some people just plain old, ACTUALLY like GT's??? Maybe???
you know, my 2013 camaro 2SS insurance premium is lower than my 2010 370z nismo.
C7's insurance premium has got to be much higher.

rates for 6-months:

Not only that but Z insurance has been stagnant or has increased for most. Camaro has been lowered more over time than the Z.

Insurance rates vary by many many factors.

And this past summer, I got quoted for insurance with the idea of trading my Z in for a used Corvette Z06. The Vette was much cheaper to insure than the 370Z. I was amazed. Same type of car (rwd 2-seater), and the Corvette was lighter and 170hp faster than the Z, yet cheaper to insure.

perhaps it's because in general, z drivers are younger than Corvette drivers ?
someone told me WRX's insurance rates are quite high because of the young drivers.

I think that has a lot to do with it. Or perhaps Vette drivers park/live in nicer neighborhoods. Or perhaps the Vette's cheaper to insure because it's a domestic? I don't know. My STI is very pricy, too, although my Z is more expensive.
