Auto Insurance

[sackdz]

Hi American and Canadian friends.

I was wondering how you guys managed to insure your cars. I managed to get a policy with Hagerty who specializes in the speciality and collector car markets. But I was told I was only able to do so because I've had other cars with them for several years. They said mine was the first Legnum they've seen and unfortunately, the rates are unfairly high compared with my other vehicles. They said it would take more experience/customers with these cars and time in order to assess and classify it correctly.

I'm looking at other options so I thought I'd ask if anyone here had any advice or experience. My normal insurance company (Progressive) does not handle and refers me to Hagerty..

Thx!

I have Geico, full coverage and pay about $65/mo. I do have more cars and a home that is bundled together.

USAA had no issue insuring my Legnum, just required a phone call because of the JDM chassis code vs. 17-digit US style VIN. Car is valued at $40k on the policy.

I'm paying $320.17/6mo for full coverage, which is a couple hundred less then what I'm paying on my 2019 GTI, and a breath away for what I pay on a 2012 Tacoma.
