I'm using them for my Boxster as well, I think $500 deductible (match my "regular" insurance) I think $14,000 agreed value, 6k a year mileage, I think around $250 a year with PCA discount.

The condition was I have to store it in a locked garage and I need to have enough other vehicles for the other drivers in the house (if I have 4 licensed drivers in the house I have to have 4 other vehicles besides the Boxster). Also nobody under 25 can drive the Boxster.

I can't wait for graduation.
Also welcome to FL auto insurance! I am there too, it is around twice as much as what my NC insurance was. I had Geico in NC but they just were not competitive in FL - progressive had the best rates, but then last time I checked was 2013, maybe time to get some recent quotes?

I really need to boost my deductible from $500 to $1000. There is usually a notable savings moving the deductible up and i would eat a $800 repair before i would turn in a claim for that. We are used to spending maintenance money anyway!

GEICO is a good choice for insurance on your Boxster.. I pay $216 every 6 months.. 250/500 liability, 100 property damage, 250/500 uninsured, 2K month work loss , 75k Pers injury & economic loss, 5k medical extra, $500 deduct collision & comp.. I was with SF and paid $398 every 6 for half the coverage.. GEICO worth looking into..

$700/Yr with $1000 deductible for an 04S

My 08 pickup and wife's Pilot cost more per year.
And my 17 YO son's 00 Accord? ouch.

It is always hard to compare insurance rate. There are so many variables involved.

I have an umbrella policy and the same coverage on all of the cars. They are all driven less than 7,500 miles a year with the exception of the 2012 BMW 535I;

Every six months....

2001 Boxster $257.94
2001 Toyota Tundra $271.45
2012 BMW 535I $471.49
2016 BMW M2 $410.89

just bought the '97 boxster and since it was 20 years old and an occasional driver sometimes commuter but less than 50%, it is insured with the 914 on Haggerty, $608 per year for both vehicles. Now my wife and I are the only ones listed to drive them, not either of my daughters that are 21 and 17(permit no full license)- we have 3 other vehicles that last year (2000 BMW 528I, 2004 Jag XJ VDP and 2007 Navigator) that all 4 of us are listed on- those cost me $1000 every 6 months with 500/1mil coverage low deductible - carrier is Safeco- a Liberty mutual company- when we switched from Progressive we cut our premiums in half!!!! no more supporting George Soros!! -

Thanks SO MUCH for all your feedback guys. Here's what I wound up getting: I went with Ford Heacock Classic out of Florida. My 2002 Boxster S now has agreed value at $15,000, NO deductible on comp, collision or towing. Includes Roadside assistance, unlimited mileage flatbed towing (State Farm had a really short mileage limit & I had to pay for overage), uninsured and under-insured. I am 67 years old, single and have 1 speedo 1 year old on my record. ANNUAL premium is $250! The only downside is that only have 50/100 liabilities on my 2002 BMW through State Farm and Heacock won't insure the Box for more than the BMW...some insurance thing. I will soon be switching the BMW to a more competitive carrier and raise liability on both cars. 100/300 only raised my premium to $258 on my Box. Anyway, I am thrilled with the way they treated me and with the positive comments I gathered here on the forum about Heacock including claims service.
