im pretty sure geico isnt offered in Mass which is pretty bullshit if u ask me. its probly cuz they would redue the prices so much, every 1 would do to them.

Well in my case Geico wanted 1200 for 6 months on the old civic, 97 ex, I went to my local insurance guy and paid only 800 a year. In Florida I guess you don't save at all. It didn't work for me. Now I pay about 2000 a year for the WRX and the Hatch

I pay $316 every six months for myself (18 years old) and my CRX. Its just liablity but I pay less then anyone else I know. I have never gotten into an accident nor do they know about my outragous speeding tickets.

Best advice is that you have to shop around.
I work for GEICO (I am at work now), but I have Statefarm insurance just because it's cheaper and my agent hooks me up.

*INSERT*: I don't do anything with rates/policies at GEICO, I just do BS computer stuff so don't ask me any questions regarding quotes. :P

I have called 7 different insurance companies finding quotes and found the best is Statefarm. For a 100/300 policy I am paying $2400/yr for two cars; a 2000 altima SE with full coverage and no collision/fire/theft on my 86 crx.

yeah shopping around is good. I just knew something was wrong when my cousin who was in at least 3 accidents, each causing a few grand in damage, the last one totaled his ford ranger, and he has commercial plates on his new truck and with nationwide he was only paying like $160 a month (maybe less, i cant remember for sure) or so, and he has 4-5 points, im paying about $200+ for 2 cars no accidents so somthings amiss with only 2 pts. As for me, nothing is on my record for speeding except for failure to obey a traffic control device(that was a reduction for going 75 in a 50 getting caught racing a friend... it could have been much worse) other than that any speeding or moving violation i either had dropped or reduced to parking tickets. BTW i am in Buffalo, NY, so i guess it depends on where you live.

I pay 300 PER MONTH for full coverage on my 01 GS-R. I also got a 30 point citation 2 years before i got my licence though...maybe that had something to do with it?
