Default Insurance question

Hi everyone,

Hopefully in a couple of weeks I'll be getting my S shipped from the states, and I was wondering how much (on average) is insurance around here? I do know that unlike the states, where there are multiple companies to choose form, there is only one.

Overall, how is the coverage? I can understand if your policy coverage is based on your driving record, but since I just moved up here to Canada, will this mean that I will be screwed?

Any input would greatly be appreciated

Thanks again

A total of $2600 with 40% discount for me. $2mil liabilities from a third party. You can get basic coverage from ICBC and the rest from third parties such as Canadian Direct (HSBC).

I believe with a driving record from your current insurance company you can apply for the discount.

Depends on your driving record and how long you've driven for without an at fault accident. The insurance Co. (ICBC they have a monopoly)will probably want a letter from your insurer from the U.S. I'm a level 19 road star at -43% the 03 S2000 cost me ~$2250/year with $200 comprehensive, $300 Collision , $3,000,0000 third party liabbilty, pleasure use only.
