That is outrageous. $6720 per year is twice what i pay for 3 cars. I'm 22 and live in Detroit, the auto theft capital of the U.S

I am 20 and pay 795 every 6 months. I gave the car to my Mother and am a secondary driver... It takes a very good son to pay for a z06 and give it away to his mom.

Actually you will pay less for a c5 than a ss beacuse they have less crashes with the corvette's... i have a 06 Mustang gt and the insurance is twice the cost for a c6, and the c6 cost twice as much.... The c5,c6 's have better driving control than the others... i pay $458 for 6 months for full converge. i am 44 yr young and perfect driving record...

37 yrs old...Coverage for my 03 C5Z works out to be about $80/mo on a $1M policy; but it's not a daily driver, and I also insure my wifes E550 and our home through the same company.
