Default I love my SC

Aside from many reasons I love the SC (heck 4 years went by, and I bought another SC), couldn't shake the lust.

Insured the car today. Liability only, as with all my toys. 247$/year through AAA. Never thought it was going be THAT cheap.

WORD congrats, now take her on a joyride

I pay 6 times that amount in insurance per year, LOL. I could have boosted twice over if I'd paid that rate for the last 3 years.

$95 a month, full coverage, $250 deduct, State Farm.
I think that's high for me.

I could insure a 93' ZR1 for less. My agent tells me its because of parts.

Funny though...With how much parts cost, I would not have liability on a Lexus.

Ryan, as a fellow Californian I suggest you add uninsured motorist and property damage to your policy. I only carry liability and uninsured on my SC and after much research it's the best way to go for us in Cali. The only downside is that if your SC is ever cracked you will only receive a max payout of $3,500 for the uninsured property damage IF it's not your fault.

I'd never drive in Cali without uninsured motorist coverage. I've been hit 3 times and each and every time it was some uninsured sucka

I pay $47 a month btw, and I live in one of the worst areas for insurance rates. Go figure.
