Dr. Zevil Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 [quote name='Th3Franz']I got a quote on a GT Limited (That's the only VIN I had, even though I am getting a regular GT) for about $790 every six months. This is considering I am under 21, but I have a clean record. This includes full liability and a $1000 deductible.[/quote] HOLY CRAPCAKES! That's freakin' high for a wisco insurance tab! Have you been in accidents or had violations recently? Buy a house.. you will get better insurance. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll buy a house when I can afford one. lol Oh, I think I forgot to mention that's with the highest coverage possible (like $500,000 I think it was). -Franz The end of a Legacy http://www.youtube.com/th3franz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolbluelb Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 I just called and quoted to take my wife's 2001 Rav4 off of the policy and replace it with an 2005 Legacy GT. Result... with the same coverages on both vehicles, the Legacy was actually [b]cheaper[/b] to insure. :o To quote Stimpy, "happy, happy, joy, joy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBE555 Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 Coolbluelb, just because it's an SUV or a Toyota means it's good. :mrgreen: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7stars Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 Mercury quoted me the same price as my 99 Solara. Btw, it's also the same price as a '04 Legacy. The GT is an extra $50/6mo, for 100/300 coverage. That's not too bad, but I don't know if that'll last if a lot of kiddies buy the GT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outahere Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 According to the info at the Liberty Mutual website, the Legacy/Outback has an injury/collision/theft "score" of 85/84/40, which is better than average for all 3 categories. An average score is 100, and lower is better. On the other hand, the WRX has scores of 85/278/nd. So the WRX is better than average at protecting occupants from injury, but the drivers are getting into a much, much higher than average number of collisions. Next time I see a WRX on the road, I am staying well clear of it! :wink: The monster Ford Excursion (seemingly the dream vehicle of every American soccer mom) has scores of 39/66/230. Better than the Legacy/Outback in injury/collision. But I like that the Excursion is much more popular with thieves than the Legacy. :twisted: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axis008 Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 Since meier motor sports posted another thread about insurance and someone else posted a link coming here, I will do the honor of asking this, taking meier's questions: Now that you guys have your car... How much are you guys paying? Insurer? Every six months or per year? Age? Discounts? Anything else? -ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firedawgs Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 When I first called my isurance (USAA) with the switch over to the new car (legacy wagon GT), they did not have the vin numbers in the system. Anyways, just yesterday I received my amended isurance sheet for the year. My insurance actually went down almost $200 for the year from my last car which was a 2004 subaru wrx wagon. I am impressed.

nebio in CO Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 I've got a black 2.5GT Wagon. My 6 month USAA premium, ($500 deductibles) is $648. I'm a single male, 28 and have a "defective vehicle" ticket on my record from 2002. Because I'm in medical school I was able to get the good student discount. most other companies won't offer the student discount to anyone over 25. My previous car was a '98 Passat which carried a $600 insurance premium every 6mos. Some companies, such as GEICO were over $1,000 every 6mos for the subie.

NewGTGuy Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 I just bought a 2005 LGT Limited sedan. Coming from a 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited my insurance went down from $470/6 months to $406/6 months. I'm 33 and have a clean record. However, I'm going to need a radar detector to keep it that way. This thing is fast. NGG P.S. I also have USAA. P.S.S I have $1000 dectuctable.

Layman Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 [quote name='Drift Monkey'][quote name='SC GT']How are people doing with the Forester XT? That might give you a clue.[/quote] I don't think so. 2 different cars.[/quote] Actually, the quotes I recieved for the two are very similar. BOTH are cheaper than my 2001 RS!

whitepdxgtwgn Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 my insurance went up $480/6 mo. ('02 Audi A4) to $520 with the Leggy GT. I am a married 33yr old male with a spotless record. I'm paying the same as I did insuring a jeep CJ-5 and a Wrangler back when I was under 25!? Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
