Depends on your car, they said it's a beater. Of course an insurance company will give you significant price reduction if you have, say, a late 90s Toyota Corolla or Honda Civic with a 80 hp engine, as compared to something more modern and fun with twice the power.
- milesokeefe 9y agoI know that the sportiness and novelty of a car drives up the insurance price but it doesn't seem to as much as I thought, my friend recently got a new WRX and pays very very little in insurance for it considering he's a 22 year old male. But yeah it being a beater makes sense, I just got quotes for a 1981 Honda Civic in Seattle and some are even less than $700/year.
- jimmaswell 9y agoSeems like location is very important. I went down from ~$350 to ~$115 a month moving from NY to NJ. For reference: 22, male, just started driving in late 2017.

- tbihl 9y agoWell that just seems cruel and arbitrary.
- milesokeefe 9y agoCruel to the insurance company?
- dzhiurgis 9y agoSomething modern with collision detection/auto braking, ABS/ESP and multiple airbags and shock absorbers that WORK is also way safer than older clunk.
