ouch..sorry to hear!

why not part out your civic and drive it stock? or just switch to a domestic to get cheaper insurance rates?

Damn, that sucks man. What insurance company are you with? That seems way to high. PM me, and I'll give you the name of a broker to call. Maybe you can get a better rate?

or talk to me on MSN: [email protected]

it has nothing to do with having it stock or not, its whether or not an insurance company will give me a decent rate. id be happy to pay 4 grand a yr. but come on 7000. thats almost the worth of my car:eek:

i need help!!!!!!!!!!!:banghead:

Sorry to hear bro!
But I will be switching to TD at the end of this year......if you are claims free for 6 years......TD will give you a crazy discount!

For example......my current car will cost me $2200/year vs. $3700/year with AllState! I can't wait for this year to be over! :D

1 accident, 4 tickets

Don't know if accident is counted as me being at fault though.
I got sandwiched and my car got written off last year.

hey I think I've talked to him before.
But not recently. He gave me the same quote as the other companies (the $10k a year quote)

Really? I should look into that in 2 years. I have 1 at-fault accident and 2 tickets on my record (the tickets will clear this summer though) but have never made a claim. My insurance renews in June, so we'll see what they're gonna do. Not to mention, I need to raise my liability to $2M now :thumbsdow

I was quoted the same thing for insurance on my truck. so instead I went to "Pinnacle Ins." in sunridge mall. they offer $250,000. coverage instead of a milliion. with PL PD, I pay just under $4 G.

...it's worth a shot.

Call Primmum Insurance man. I only paid $110.00 a month for my civic with 2 major tickets. My Bro has two at fault accidents and he only pays $166 a month on his Jeep. Both Full coverage and we're 20 and 19:thumbsup:

250 000 liability is pretty weak. I think the min anybody should have is 1 mil. Think of this, if some guy w/ 250 000 liability comes and tbones you real bad and you spend the next year in the hospital, except he cant pay all you bills under his insurance cause he only has 250 000 liability. Then when you get better and want to sue him, he has no coverage anymore cause his insurance money is gone into you hospital bills. So whatever you get comes out of his pocket (which will probalby be very little considering hes only paying for 250 000 liability).

Bad story huh, well now try this, switch the roles and you hit someone and cant pay their bills with insurance and become screwed for life.
