hi im 18 and my insurance company has a major problem with giving insurance on an s2000 because they classify it as an extreme sports car - as through Cincinati insurance if anyone could elaborate for me that would be great
thanx

 

i am not clear on what you question is?

are you asking why they classify the s2k as an extreme sports car, or

are you asking why your insurance is going to be high because you are 18?

 

The S2k is not "classified" as an extreme sports car. The fact that it is a convertible and not a hard-top coupe, actually lessens the insurance right there.

But, since you are only 18, expect insurance rates to be in upwards of $2800/year, depending on your driving record.

 

2800 a year, DAMN thats what I pay every 6 months!!

FYI The reason I had to get rid of my S

 

When i was 21 i got quoted $5400 a year for a new S2K, That was 3 years ago and i still never bought one

 

Ya Mine was a impulse buy, but I made $500 and got to drive it for 2 months!! But I was out $1000 for the 2 months of insurance. Best 2 months of my life. *sniff sniff* I miss my S.

 

wow. I honestly can't get over your guys' insurance rates. At 21 yrs. old right now, I'm just a touch over $1800/year.

 

I'm 20, i pay 2800 a yr. When i turn 21 in less than 2 months, its will be 2000-2100. I only have one accident on my record, no tickets

 

i pay $2800 a year... and i'm 22... and i've had lots and lots of tickets but no accident....

 

well when i got my insurance i was 20 had only one year with my license. The S2000 is consider a sports car because the car only has 2 seat. Coupes usually have 2 doors but front and back seats. i.e Infinty G35. Also the fact that is convertible increses the insurance. Do to the danger if flipping the car over the best way to go about is to get the insurance under some one whos had a lot of years driving and is older. Then they just can add you a user or driver and you would still be covered under the insurance is somethng happens. Trust thats how i have it, wreched my car and got paid in full for it.

 

2040 a year and i'm 19 with a few wrecks... Allstate sucks

 

Get a wife My rates dropped in half after I got married.
