Ours are 6 months for auto, annual for homeowners, personal articles, and umbrella, but they all have different renewal dates, so we just pay monthly. There used to be a tiny charge for this (like $1.30/mo), but it looks like they don't have that anymore.

Insurance companies usually offer either a six-month policy or a 12-month policy, but some insurance companies offer both options. For example, GEICO offers 12 month policies to customers who have at least three years of a clean driving history.

Just wanted to provide an update:
Kudos to SW for providing me a good contact for insurance. As mentioned earlier my Plaid is $2,300 a year, my X7 is about $1,624 a year and my GTR is about $950 a year. No tickets or accidents ever. I just checked USAA and the rates were about the same.
I just got a quote from Erie and my Plaid is $914 a year, X7 is $977 and my GTR is $500 and this is with even better coverage. My umbrella premium is better and I also don't need to pay for jewelry insurance which is included as part of my homeowners so that saves me about $700 a year just for that.

Great! Erie is great too. The guy who rear-ended me in the LS a couple years ago had Erie, and they were phenomenal to work with.

I'm about to just trade everything I own in and lease a brand new S63 or S8 and stop caring, to hell with wasting money since at least I'll get a new one every three years.

Should still not hurt your rates as long as you don't have other claims...

I got hit a while back by an uninsured motorist. I filed the claim on my insurance but didn’t suffer any rate increases. I had to pay my deductible, which was later refunded to me after my insurance recovered it from the driver.

I think they have a corporate vendetta against these BS "insurance companies"--whose business model is simply selling insurance cards--and will take any opportunity they can get to make them suffer. Even if, on any individual claim, it makes no economic sense.
