anyways was wonderin how much it is for some of you to insure your babies lol=]

to be specific an EX-L trim level mt sedan and SI for kicks... haven't been on the road for
a while, is that trim available here in 604??

btw debating and stuff between this and mazda3...
if there's some mazda ppl out here...

My Si @ 35% discount $300 comp / $500 coll = $2200/yr (I live in Vancouver)

[e-ternal]

sorry, don't really know much bout insurance
should've specified more... is that per month?

mine was 260/mon
for an 06 auto dx sedan

i forgot how the discount thing works as well lol

[marc-o-lishuz]

No, I pay out my insurance in a lump sum to avoid a monthly surcharge from good ol ICBC.

[P1ng]

all i know is that my insurance went down with me buying the si..i went from a 01 chevy blazer.

[e-ternal]

o cool, never knew about that
i guess the best thing to do before headin out to the dealers to
find out if i can pick up another civic is to check w/ any insurance broker
right?

Go to a Honda dealership and talk to their insurance person. They'll give you a quote on the spot.

I have a 06 ex coupe, I pay 1700 a year. Broken down in monthly payments is 150 a month. I am at -43% discount currently

I just renewed on friday. $19__ something can't remember. Private insurance and -43%.

Oh yeah. SI.

Went to Autoplan for a few fun quotes

i think if you're guna compare a non-si sedan with something else in about the same category (maybe the mazda3), it'll be roughly the same i believe.
the coupe however will cost a bit more as its 2door, making it a "sports car". damn rx8's have it good
i was debating between a civic and a mazda3 too, but in the end i went for higher resale value, honda reliability, better warranty, better drivability, and jus cuz the civic is simply sexier

It's interesting but when I compared a Civic Sedan to a Coupe at an autoplan they told me it's the number of doors that count (hence number of passengers you're more likely to carry). i.e. Sedan costs more :|

Wow. canada is expensive for insurance.

I live in the biggest county/city in the state and only pay 142 for my SI, comp only on a parked '93 civic dx, and renters insurance.

And sedans cost less down here because they are considered family cars, while coupes are considered sporty.

Just renewed my insurance.
$155 a month with roadstar BOOYAA (finally)
EX sedan

That's what you get when the government monopolizes the insurance industry.

ICBC = Insurance Corporation of British Columbia... run by the Province of BC. They have had record profits every year since they opened up shop. I'd say 99% of BC motorists use ICBC for their auto insurance. Guess what happens when ICBC rules 50/50 liability? Yup, they stuff their pockets with $$$ from BOTH parties involved in the claim
