Some states have a thing called Collectors Car Registration. It’s not Historic Car Registration, (QQ plates), and the car only has to be 15 years old. I am allowed to drive it 2,500 miles a year max, but then again I only pay $50 a year for full coverage. Check it out.

I pay about $840 a year for my 300SD....with no collision insurance, but I do have vandalism/theft/act of God/Deer/Glass coverage. It already bought me a new windshield last December after a ginormous rock fell off a truck on my way home from the junk yard (of all places) and smashed it badly. I had only added the coverage 1.5 months earlier! Talk about luck. I also have a $400 head unit in my dash thats covered by that.....so I don't have to worry about it getting stolen.

My dad pays hardly anything on his cars since he has so many. I think he pays like $300 a year for his 300SD!

I pay 44.56/month total for my 83 240D and 85 300D. Just liability. Dropped comp and collision but it was only $28/month more. Before I sold my GMC sierra it was about the same. Dropping the truck only saved me like $12/month. State Farm. God Forbid I ever need anything from them.

If I only drove my car to car shows, I would get that.

In CT you get "Early American" plates after 20 years, their are no restrictions and the insurnace companies don't give a damn. The benifit is your taxes go down to about $20 a year. So in the first year I save the $92 they cost me and than some.

I pay $2000 a year for full coverage on 4 cars through Met Life. I would not go without full coverage and underinsured/uninsured motorist! Part of the reason our rates in Arizona are so high is because we are a border state with no border protection and Arizona has become the #1 state for Grand theft auto and kidnapping!

Thank you liberals! Your intelligence and your "gifts" just keep on giving!

We recently had an episode in Phoenix where 100 rounds of amunition were fired off in s school zone at a drop house where the back yard was full of stolen cars! These were ILLEGAL ALIENS dressed up as cops and the person living in the house, an American Citizen was killed, yet somehow the sherriffs dept. that is making city wide crime sweeps are racist cops? Yeah right! Thanks ACLU!
