I've been getting some quotes for full coverage for the 99-01 323i that I plan on buying. I've gotten quotes as low as 900 a year, does this seem correct in comparison for what you pay? FYI I'm 22, licensed 6+ years, 1 accident in 1999, and NOOOO speeding tickets (thanks to an 89 ford tempo incapable of speeds greater than 70). Good credit, probly some bargaining power for a low yearly.
So, just looking what anyone pays on any of their cars. Thanks again.
P.S. Went to the dealers, those 06 3's are pretty slick, someday. :wrench
Are ya married? That makes a difference too.....besides the state, the area you stay in, the company, the agent, and you (your bargaining power).
I am 29, married, good credit, I accident in 2001, I moving violation, I pay 400$ for 6 months.......State Farm. Complete coverage 100$ deductible. So I would say for you that sounds about good. Missouri Insurance rates are ridiculous cause we ahve the dumbest drivers here, yet I love the state farm agent, he did some finagling and got me that low rate. I tried even unheard of companies and no one would gimme a lower rate than that so I am happy.
Bottomline.....900/year for a bimmer is cool. If you get lower,...awesome.
Hmmmm...let's see. I recently switched from Geico to Allstate. I was paying about $1450 per year for a '94 Jeep Grand Cherokee and a 2001 Audi allroad.
Allstate got that down to around $800 with a higher deductible ($500 ----> 1000) but also higher liability limits.
Adding an '01 330Ci Convertible we just bought will add $400 to that for a total of $1200 per year for all three cars.
They also lowered my homeowners by more than 50%, partly because I gave them all my insurance business.
I was floored by the difference.
We're in our 40's and married with good driving records and perfect credit.
I don't have the luxury of the big-name, economies of scale operations such as Geico, Allstate, Progressive and State Farm, as they are not offered in MA, sucks. But I'm happy that I wont be paying 5000 like s1lence... how many pedestrians did you have to kill to get a rate that high??? Or is your bimmer made of solid gold? :cheers
I am in VA Beach and have a 2002 325i. My insurance is with Nationwide and pay about $89 a month with a $500 deduct. Not bad, considering every other company wanted to charge me at least $300-400 more for a 6-month policy. I have a perfect record and credit, but am 22 and single male which kills it all.

Yep, 22 year old single male gets killed on car insurance rates. That rate isn't that bad for you. Did you check Allstate when you shopped it? Again, I was floored at how much they save me on both car and homeowners. But, we're in our 40's and married with perfect everything.
Full coverage, basic liabilty (i dont really have any assets) and an alternate vehicle plan, for 920 a year. Could have been as low as 840 still maintaining full coverage for financed vehicles.
wow, that's a lot of cash! mine's at http://www.insurance-quote-free.com/chris cheaper! i'm 18 and me and my dad is sort of 50/50 with the payment. he use it during saturdays. had 1 speeding ticket! Progressive is way too high! Ugggh! Well, that's what to expect with leading companies, they grab the opportunity and get to increase time after time! <_<
I am in Montreal, Canada...
just for fun...
I pay $1000 usd for my 1994 540 (worth 10k), and $725 for my 2003 330xi (worth 30k)
no logic, old car more than new car... but whatever!
no accidents, no tickets, great credit and live in an average part of the city.
It's about what I pay for all three of my cars per year.

1 million isnt enough? Who are you driving into, the prime minister?
100,000 for body is pretty good, and most peopel think im crazy for payign for it. Minimum here in the US starts at like 15/30 or something. But still I ay my own insurance and oddly enough its pretty cheap for a 18 year old on a i6 coupe bmw!
100/300/100 is the coverage on damage you do to other people or their stuff in an accident. It is $100K/$300K/$100K. You're basically out your car, but their stuff is paid for. It's called Liability.
Full coverage is when EVERYTHING is covered (obviously) which means that if any damage is done to your car, the insurance will pay for it. In the states, you have to have Full Coverage if you're still paying a bank or dealer for your car. That way, if you wreck the car, they still get their money.
My mom used to always pay for 100/300/100, and that's the advice she gave me when I started driving. I find it appalling when I hear about people paying for 15/30/25 or something crazy like that. That's not going to pay for anything!! I think the national standard should be raised, but it's done by states, so whatever.
Hey everyone, I would like to know about how much everyone else is paying for insurance in the 2k6.
I am looking at buying a 2002 330i. I will have to make payments on it, so I will need comprehensive an collision coverages. If I cannot afford to insure the car, I will have to pass on it.
Progressive's quote was something crazy, like $350/mo, which is more than I would be willing to pay. There are other things for which to save or on which to spend money in life.
24, single male, steady engineering job for 2.5 years, good credit (but short history), clean record.
$167 a month on my '06 325xi
$49 a month on my '94 520i
Course that is through AIU since my old insurance wasn't offered here in Germany (used to have nationwide with a long standing good record). So basically I had to start at zero as far as the insurance was concerned.
That's married 33yr old rate on a US policy covering driving in Germany, probably useless as hell to ya.
in canada i pay 170 /month canadian for just one way coverage.. its like 230 /month for almost full coverage.. i am 24 on 2001 330i
