Insurance
Ok is there any particular reason as to why the svx has such a high insurance cost? Just looking at the prices is already killing my wallet lol?

This is a base model 2 dr cavalier we're talking here... so just the base 2.2l 4 banger and an auto trans. The SVX is cheaper than most cars to insure due to the AWD, passive ignition cut, ABS, etc... |

Re: Insurance
My SVXs cost $172.50 each to insure per 6 months. I'm not sure where you guys are finding such high rates. My entire insurance premium for my Audi A6, Mercedes SL500, and both SVXs is $1190.10. The Merc makes up the biggest portion.
I have quite the penchant for speeding tickets, too, so I'm not getting any safe driving breaks. m

Re: Insurance
I'd take my chances.
Merc makes more sense being short for mercury. I need to shop for an 83 lynx. TH

Re: Insurance
I'm currently paying $57/month for my car. Granted, that's only for liability, but last year I was quoted right around $100/month for comprehensive. Oddly, when I sought a quote for adding a '93 Justy to my policy, it would have doubled my payments. Go figure the worthless wheeled egg beater is worth as much to insure as the expensive sports car.

Shop for a few more, stay with one company, if you have good records, after six months, one year, the rate should go down. I only pay less than $40/month for my main driving car, with multiple cars discount, I only pay another $16/month for my second car with liability coverage. Generally, good driving records, the last speeding ticket was more than 5yrs ago, no accidents ever at my fault.

Re: Insurance
I *would* pay around 1200 a year for comp being I haven't had a wreck. I am only 19, guess it varies by state. My insurance for just liability is around 600 a year now.
