Yeah, for some reason, my asphalt burning 1997 145hp Acura 2.2CL is in the same insurance category as my 2002 WRX wagon. My S2000 is a few categories higher than both. Go figure.

My agent had no idea what the insurance would be on the WRX when I called him. I called him in Jan '01 just before I was sure I wanted the car and went to the dealership. So what I did is get quotes on three other cars just to get an idea. I asked him to quote me on a Audi A4 1.8T quattro, a BMW 325xi, and a '99 eclipse GSX. They are only similar to the WRX in the fact that they are AWD and are foreign. However it did give a good idea of what I would be paying. The WRX ended up being cheaper than all of them in the end because of the safety features in it. I would recommend if you're looking for a quote to get one on a regular WRX and an EVO since they will be available before the Sti. That should give one a good idea of the cost. Bryan |

I just called my insurance company and the quote they gave me for the car is: $1695 annually with $500 deductibles all around.
I'm under 25, married, "perfect" driving record. I don't think $1700 for a 300hp $30K+ is that bad. Heck, my 4Runner is around $1100 annually. What's everyone think? I'm not too familiar with insurance rates. |

I was griping about my 02 WRX wagon insurance going from $750 a year to $1150 a year, but no more.. I've read about too many people paying over $2k a year. Ouch!
I'm 30, male, single, no accidents or tickets. |

my insurance for a 97 Z28
Yes... I said a 1997 Z28. I'm a 30yr old, single with home and mcycle insurance with the same company. 1 accident in past 5 years and no tickets. I have paid as much as 3k a year when I first got the car. I pay just over 1k a year on insurance on the car w/ full coverage and 500 deduc. I just recently got my premium statement and found that my car is no longer considered safe by today's standards. (I've lost my vehicle safety discount).
So I would guess the Sti should be less than this by just the fact that the car is newer and safer than a Camaro could ever be. |

P.S.: I'm paying $1375/6 months right now with Progressive on my WRX and it's my only car. My record isn't so clean, or it would be much lower... I just got a quote from Geico and they told me $2718 / 6 months. :monkey: to Geico and their dumb little gecko! I've heard that company isn't even worth talking to if your record isn't squeaky clean, but I thought I'd try it anyway just to see what they'd say. Their sales guy didn't know what to say when i told them I was paying half that rate with Progressive. He couldn't figure out how they could insure me so "cheap" for the same coverage. EDIT: P.P.S.: If Progressive comes back to me with a rate much higher than what I'm currently paying, then I will be forced to sell my WRX... Between my car payment and my current insurance payment, this thing is already costing me around $800/mo. No way am I going to spend as much on this car for the next 4+ years as I could spend on a mortgage payment for a house. Last edited by Vipre; 01-13-2003 at 03:27 PM. |
