Actually I am getting a lot better deal on the M3

You must not have tweaked your policy at all. That is ludicrous.

18k a year would = 1,500 a month. i think he meant 1,800

ummm no, that was not a typo. They wanted Eighteen Thousand Dollars in United States Currency.

ozthunder · 04-24-2007, 10:21 AM

lol, and you're still with this insurance agency? I mean, do you get round the clock escort services with that 18K? How about caviar every month, delivered right to your home or work in a neat little Mitsubishi Evo cooler?

I'm confounded, stupefied, and utterly speechless to hear 18,000$. Either your a 16 year old who can't drive and have wrecked 4-5 cars, a man who walked in and just screamed "rape me", or Christ, I really don't know. 18000$ is ****ing ridiculous dude. I would have asked for some reasons..

RayArroyo · 04-24-2007, 10:25 AM

im paying 70 bucks a month for full coverage on the evo with a 500 deductible. im 28 years old. but there is no comparrison between the evo and srt even with suspension mods on the srt is not the same. i owned an srt-4 before my evo and sti. once i drove both cars i fell in love and the srt had to go.

If you want to fall in love all over again, check out this months Modified Magazine’s coverage of the Time Attack event. AMSs’ Evo comes within spitting distance of a Time Attack prepped GT3. Front Wheel Drive can’t get you that far.

And for the money, the Evo (or STi) can get you similar performance numbers against cars costing 3 times as much or more. It’s the best bang for buck out there in that respect.

**Ender81** · 04-25-2007, 01:36 AM

I definately need to shop for better insurance. I am 25 and pay 1800 a year full coverage with the 500 deductable. No tickets, no accidents......knock on wood lol.

Thats sick and totally believable.

These cars are the best bang for the buck out there in the price range. They do EVERYTHING well. You can't go wrong with the EVO. It is a great car.

im 23.
have a far worse record than you do mpower, and i only pay 6k a year for the evo.
so whoever told you 18k was trying to get in your pants.. (the bad way) lol

you guys are crazy...spending 6k a year just to insure a car, not drive it is a tad bit out of hand...i couldn't imagine spending that kind of money for insurance. can't imagine what you do to get that money

yeah well i did it to myself when i first got my license,if i could go back and redo it i would've kept myself under control..
my insrurance was worse, but then i switched insurance companies and saved myself like 1500-2k.

and sorry i forgot the 6k is with 2 cars, i pay 4K a year for just the evo.
