Insurance Costs - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

j.fro · 02-20-2007, 06:27 PM

I'm also 38! I pay about $60/month with 250/500 coverage 2000 986 S. A couple of years ago I had an 04 Dodge truck and was looking at a 99 Boxster. I figured the insurance would keep me in the truck. I called Geico and they quoted me about $50/mo with 25/50. The truck was considerably more! I asked the agent about this and she said that if I went into the side of somebody's house with the truck, I would do way more damage then with the little Porsche...thus the difference. At 38, I suppose we're outside of the "generally reckless" range. I would also guess that Porsche owners overall are more likely to be very carefull with their hard earned babies.

Mine's about $500/year on my 2000, nonS. Mid 30s, family man. 3rd car. Cost was only $30/6mo more than my 911sc. That car was rated as "standard performance".. as opposed to high performance. Cant remember what bracket the Boxster falls into. They know folks like us aren't out street racing, have jobs and are more responsible. That said, the same 911 that cost me $500/year in VA cost me $1800/year in NJ

I have two cars, the '00 Boxster S added about $50/month. Funny thing is, whether I drive it zero miles or 10,000 miles, it's still the same price. I figured they would cut me a discount for not driving it all winter.

Dang. I'm with Geico too, but they're charging me $1400/year with 250/500 coverage. 01 Boxster, no prior accidents or tickets. Mid-30s age bracket. Guess NYC adds a premium.

I'm 30 years old and I pay $36.50 a month for the Box's insurance. Full coverage, towing, rental reimbursement, the works. Gotta love USAA.

What others pay won't help you.

Too many variables for a valid comparison.

Suggest you price shop in your locale.
