weird.
still, just one minor fender bender in an Enzo will set you back like $30K (write off for an S2k).
I think the key is body damage to humans for the less expensive cars vs. the more expensive. 30 k in body damage is nothing compared to 150k in hospital bills and if there are several of those bills from the 17 year old flipping their evo or srt4 with 4 buddies in the car it's much more expensive than the ferrari for the companies to insure.

Have to agree with the logic. I paid low rates for full coverage on my MY00 S. When I traded it in for a new C6 in 2005 my rates went up only $5/mo for the same coverage.

Limerick, pa 30 min or so from philly.

My rates have been about the same whereever I've lived. Roch,ny balt,md owings mills,md bel camp, md. Etc.. They went up and down when I got int an accident and when I turned 21,25,27,30 but never really varied by where I lived. Since I never lived in a big city.

i pay about $250/mo. full coverage on just my ess-too-kay. but i have a really bad driving record haha...

i was looking at getting 3 cars... BMW 3-series convertible, s2000 and an is300... the IS was the most expensive. don't really understand why, but i guess they're notorious for expensive insurance.
