I have it insured through Grundy. I went through a local agent friend of mine and got the best price/coverage from them. YMMV
As an aside, when I totaled my 2001S 2 1/2 years ago, I got a very fair and timely settlement from USAA, considering it had 155,000 miles on it. I did negotiate a bit with them, but we came to a price that I was happy with.

I have my 2006 S2000 insured with Hagerty for $40K. This Saturday it will be 5 weeks since I wrecked it and Hagerty still hasn't decided if they are going to repair it or total it. It is getting very frustrating and as of now I would not recommend Hagerty. I believe they are doing everything they can to avoid totaling the car! Every time I call they come up with another excuse as to why it is taking so long.
These reviews look bad for Grundy.

Scoots, this was my friend's reply.
I don’t see anything wrong with Hagerty they’re pretty solid and profitable company. Their stock was just upgraded. They had a blowout quarter and blowout year. They’re changing some of their agreements and some of their marketing strategies. I believe I remember they are using State Farm to underwrite their classic car policies. I had a small claim on my restoration. They took care of it quickly so I wouldn’t get too concerned they’re probably the best around.

Thank you for the link. I've been short on spare time to research this properly and your link was helpful. I appreciate it.

I think it is difficult to get a good reading online about many subjects, such as this one. I suspect almost all the posters on a Consumers Affairs site are negative. Hagerty had way more bad ratings than Grundy on that site.
I place personal experience of people you know over anything posted. My best friend with numerous classics has all his cars under Grundy but he’s never had to file a claim. You never know until you have to.

Many years ago State Farm had a reputation for not wanting put new parts or OEM parts on unless you did a lot of push back. That's why I was disappointed to learn they now likely handle the Hagerty claims.
