I think Seattle must have super high insurance rates.
10 years ago I was paying $120 a month for basic liability on a non-turbo 280ZX. That was a good rate then.
Since then, with a perfect record, and no tickets I could never get any insurance company to give me a rate better than $75 a month. $25 a month is ridiculous!
Granted it doesn't cost much more to add comp and collision on an older cheap car... but liability around here is expensive.
These days, at 30 years old and no tickets, I still pay about that much for full coverage on a 350Z.
Basically, it would not have mattered if I drove a 280ZX or a Datsun 210 wagon... still would have been $120/month. If I drove a TURBO z then that would have made a difference.
