$7,600 extra inurance! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

BLACK67 · 05-28-2009, 07:39 PM

Got a message from the insurance company to call them back ASAP. My 19 year old son, who is occasional driver on my wife's 02 Sunfire, rate went to $7600 ( what the f#%%$@ ) from $990!

Sigh a waiver that he does not drive it the Camaro? Doesnt matter, 3 cars 3 drivers. His insurance solely on the Sunfire is $7600!
To top it off my insurance on the 2SS is $965 when my 08 Colorado is $1200. Man nothin is making sense tonight. OK, I need to drink heavily now.

Easy fix...... Insure your son with another insurance company and don't even mention your other vehicles on the Household.

Correct, get him off your insurance ASAP and tell your company he is in college out of state and will no longer drives your cars and then stick to it.

Trade the sunfire for a cheap 4 door sedan..and keep him away from the Camaro..

Hylton · 05-28-2009, 08:11 PM

If he gives you a hard time about not being able to drive the Camaro, threaten to put him in a 1988 Impala.

Mike, shop around, I've alway said insurance companies are a dime a dozen. It strange, I did a quote once on a 2008 vette and it was cheaper (yes cheaper) than my '04 Colorado. I expect the Camaro to come out the same, I hope. Good Luck, but shop around.

But thats it, even if we sigh a waiver that he doesnt drive the Camaro its still $7600. The Sunfire only has 23,000 km but isnt even worth $5k!

Even with my 18 year old son signing said waivor he becomes principle driver on my 2000 chev venture which increase my insurance on it $122.00 a month. Add to that the $147.00 for the Camaro and i say it's time he got a job and moved out lol....j/k

I work for an insurance company DO NOT LIE on an application, if they find out they will void the policy and you will not have any insurance. Most all applications have a question about under age driver's. I have seen this happen several times. An accident happens and durning the investigation the truth comes out. Policy void and you are left with no coverage.

Foreign exchange? Send him to live in India in the slums while you order a loaded 2SS.

Ok that's very poor taste joke.

Good luck did the kid get a DWI or crash??
