Evo's are the #1 totaled car as reported by the insurance institute. The car has very high rates even for older drivers with no points.

My buddy pays $153 a month for his STi and Z06. He had an S2000 and the STi and he paid ~$330 per month. He sold the Honda, got the Z06, made the STi the pleasure/weekend car and insurance dropped.

The EVO is a pretty expensive car to insure if your in the wrong demographic. I've used all the major insurance companies over the years, Progressive, All State, State Farm & Geico. The last one I had was Progressive and that was a couple years ago. At that time I was getting charged $290 a month for my 2004 EVO w/ full coverage. Now I have USAA and I'm only paying $140 per month for full coverage, I saved over 50% going with USAA!

I was floored when I got my insurance quote for the vette. It only went up $40 per month with the same coverage. So basically I pay $179.xx per month for both cars full coverage (comp & collision) w/ $250.00 deductable. Thats cheaper for two cars w/ USAA then it was for one car w/Progressive.
