Insurance Companies.
 

So my buddy has this 97 Coupe for sale, Lowered, CAI, and thats about it.

5000 bucks, i thought, why not, sounds like a fun little car.

Go to get a quote... 500 ****ing dollars a month because its a goddamn SI and I am "street racing material"

How is it that my Probe is faster, yet less expensive to ensure. I know the truth is in the numbers, but god damn.

my old ins comp came to my house and took pics of my car to make sure it wasnt modified to go fast, lol. hd to cover my guags ith a hat and the intercooler with black pieces of cardboard, lol

Ins on my modified 1950 chevy pick up is gonna be like 28 bucks amonth under lant ins co ..77.

when i put full coverage on my car itll get occasioanl driving insurance, well ill try to anyways tell them i only drive it on weekends and stuff as ive got another vehicle i drive daily

I'm guessing this SI coupe is a honda civic. (if it's a civic) Number 1 reason why the insurance is high, is because civic's are the most stolen vehicle in all of North America.

i was thinkin of getting my own insurance...i got a pretty good qoute considering i live in scarborough and drove a civic it was something like 2900 for the year...with bel air direct

$6000 a year to drive a 10 year old Civic bwhahahahah.

Thats like a payment on my 7-series WTF?

It's cheaper for me to insure a 5L Mustang GT, than it is to insure a Civic. And I'm a professional driver, who's been insured everyday since I turned 17. Almost 15 years. But, it makes no difference, because I'm male, I drive a 5 speed, 4 door sedan. But, because it's a 5 speed, I'm paying $100 a month.

Never knew owning a 5 spd made a difference. I dont even remember my insurance company asking me if my car is 5 spd or auto. :shrug:

a 5 liter mustang is no longer black listed by the insurance company so theyre cheap man, i got quoted like 90 bucks a nmnth for a 5 liter the other year, lol, very cheap :)

civic insurance is rape, not to mention the theft issues. partly why im switching over to a trans am.

It does. The car's a little faster with the 5 speed. I guess it makes a difference. :dunno:

buddy its still a 20 second car, lol, the only advantage you have with a 5 speed with your brick is that it wont be as slow getting on the hiway, lol

At Least if it was 3.5L you might have something to work with. My BUddies Dads '96 Maxima he put a 150 shot on it and a tire. Ran high 11s!

But for now....:UDONT:

19 sec car.
