Hard to say. Mine had renewed the day of the accident so hopefully I won't see a change for 6 months. Not looking forward to see what happens then.

Mine would be zero increase. I have a policy that provides accident forgiveness for your first at fault accidnt.

Great post. I bet there are numerous members that have seen this firsthand. (including myself...) I understand #1 is one of the worst...

So I ended up going in a slightly different direction.
I picked up an 2018 GS 350 F Sport. Has about 40 miles on it right now.
Seems like a pretty decent car so far.

Congrats. Beautiful car. I don’t believe I have ever seen a 2108 model year before though. You are really ahead of your time.

Enjoy the new ride!

No worries. I just had to poke fun since I’m envious. I’m sure you will enjoy it and hopefully those on the GS forum are as helpful and friendly as the ES folks.

Wait, you didn't get the flying car option for your 2108 GS? 😁

That's a gorgeous car, Atomic Silver I suppose. It's the best color around.

>2018 GS 350 F Sport.

Which motor, the V8, yummmmm
=============================================================
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, and
Torque is how far you take the wall with you

It's not the GSF, so it has the 3.5l V6.

To the OP, congrats! Beautiful car!
