Default Blarg.. my ins went up

My ins actually went up $150 every 6 months going from a 04 Sti to an 06 IS350... go figure... from $600 every 6 months to $750 for both cars.

Sorry to hear that . It probably went up because of the new cost of your IS (nav) and stuff. they can be costly to replace. Good luck

Just having a brand new car makes my insurance go up. Once it's a year old the rates come back down.

Wow, wish I could get a rate like that. I'm paying $1100/6 mo. to insure my IS350 and my wife's 97 Civic for both of us.

I would consider myself lucky if I could insure two cars for $750/6months. I'm paying $1950/6months just for my IS350 with a clean driving record. Insurance rates in FL are crazy.
