$1476 / 6 months

2 tickets (speeding 10-15 over, "failure to obey a traffic control device.") good luck on getting cheap insurance being a 19 y/o with an s2000.
Thats brutal! But I have a tough time feeling any pity for a 19 yr old fortunate enough to drive an S.

Hey if you go into S2000 Talk and do a search for "insurance" you will probably get a ton of multi-paged threads with this exact info.

There are tons of threads with this exact topic in S2k Talk and Car Talk both.

Location has as much to do with insurance cost as age/car/record.
Same company and driver/car in one city will be different than another city.

For what it's worth though (again):

02 S2000
27 Male
1 Traffic Violation that just came off my record last month (10-15 over limit)

$660/6mo as a daily driver in an overpriced city in the middle of Oregon

2005 in Phoenix

My 25 birthday was the best ever. Went from approx 300/month down to 110.

IMO its the last of the great birthdays.

is that with a clean driving record?

After hearing these outrageous amounts, it really scared me! If I kept my accord, I could be saving almost 2,000. per year.

well, to enjoy the s2000, you more often than not will have to violate one traffic rule or another. are you suggesting we buy an s2000 and not enjoy it??
Not saying that at all, I said don't be an idiot about it. AKA going past your limits, weaving in and out or speeding when its not safe, driving SO tires in the winter, driving aggressivly in the rain thinking its a FWD car, etc etc etc.

I can go on and on about the stupid things (usually) younger kids do in this car and could probably complie a list of poor excuses to why they crashed. Granted I am a kid myself (turning 20) but I've had my fair share of autoX's / track days to say I know my limits and never push them on the road. Why waste a perfectly good car / life...
