2013 Chevrolet Camaro Insurance Rates

Have you fallen victim to an underperforming, overpriced insurance policy? Trust us, there are many consumers feeling the pinch from expensive insurance.

There are many insurance companies to buy insurance from, and even though it’s nice to have a choice, too many choices makes it more difficult to adequately compare rates.

Don’t overlook these discounts

Companies offering auto insurance do not list every available discount in a way that’s easy to find, so here is a list both the well known and the harder-to-find savings tricks you should be using.

  • Early Signing – Some insurance companies reward drivers for switching policies before your current policy expires. This can save 10% or more.
  • Accident Free – Drivers with accident-free driving histories can save substantially when compared to frequent claim filers.
  • Discounts for Safe Drivers – Safe drivers can get discounts for up to 45% lower rates for Camaro coverage than less cautious drivers.
  • Multiple Cars – Having all your vehicles on one policy could earn a price break for each car.
  • Driver’s Ed – Cut your cost by having your teen driver enroll in driver’s education in school.
  • Driver Safety – Taking a driver safety course can save you 5% or more if your company offers it.
  • Discount for Good Grades – A discount for being a good student can be rewarded with saving of up to 25%. The discount lasts until age 25.
  • Bundle and Save – When you have multiple policies with the same company you may save 10% to 20% off each policy.
  • Federal Employees – Employees or retirees of the government can save as much as 8% for Camaro coverage with select insurance companies.
  • Senior Discount – Older drivers may qualify for a small decrease in premiums for Camaro coverage.

It’s important to understand that most discount credits are not given to your bottom line cost. Some only apply to individual premiums such as comp or med pay. Even though it may seem like all the discounts add up to a free policy, it just doesn’t work that way.

A partial list of companies that possibly offer some of the above discounts include:

Double check with every prospective company which discounts you may be entitled to. Savings might not apply everywhere.

Is my situation unique?

When it comes to buying proper insurance coverage, there really is not a perfect coverage plan. Everyone’s needs are different so your insurance should reflect that Here are some questions about coverages that might help in determining if you would benefit from an agent’s advice.

  • Should I bundle my homeowners policy with my auto?
  • Do I benefit by insuring my home with the same company?
  • Should I drop comprehensive coverage on older vehicles?
  • Does insurance cover damages from a DUI accident?
  • Am I missing any policy discounts?
  • Will I be non-renewed for getting a DUI or other conviction?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions, you might consider talking to a licensed agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, fill out this quick form or you can also visit this page to select a carrier

Don’t be fooled by advertising claims

Auto insurance providers like 21st Century, Allstate and State Farm constantly bombard you with television and radio advertisements. They all have a common claim that you can save if you switch your coverage to them. How do they all make the same claim?

Different companies have a certain “appetite” for the type of customer that earns them a profit. For example, a desirable insured could possibly be between 30 and 50, has no driving citations, and drives newer vehicles. A customer getting a price quote who meets those qualifications will qualify for the lowest rates and is almost guaranteed to save when they switch companies.

Potential customers who don’t qualify for the requirements must pay higher rates and this can result in the driver buying from a lower-cost company. The ads state “people who switch” not “everyone that quotes” save that much money. This is how companies can truthfully make those claims. This illustrates why it’s extremely important to get as many quotes as possible. Because you never know which auto insurance company will fit your personal profile best.

Insurance specifics

Having a good grasp of a insurance policy aids in choosing the right coverages and proper limits and deductibles. The coverage terms in a policy can be difficult to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Listed below are typical coverage types available from insurance companies.

Liability auto insurance

Liability insurance protects you from damages or injuries you inflict on other’s property or people by causing an accident. This coverage protects you from claims by other people, and doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. Your policy might show limits of 50/100/50 that means you have $50,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, $100,000 for the entire accident, and property damage coverage for $50,000.

Liability can pay for things such as emergency aid, bail bonds and medical services. How much liability should you purchase? That is your choice, but you should buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Comprehensive coverage

Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first must pay your deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things such as damage from getting keyed, damage from a tornado or hurricane and vandalism. The maximum amount a insurance company will pay at claim time is the market value of your vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Collision coverage

This coverage will pay to fix damage to your Camaro from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision insurance covers things like damaging your car on a curb, scraping a guard rail, backing into a parked car and sustaining damage from a pot hole. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are older. You can also bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

This provides protection when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and damage to your Chevy Camaro.

Due to the fact that many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is important protection for you and your family.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP provide coverage for expenses like funeral costs, prosthetic devices, nursing services and hospital visits. They are often used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. They cover both the driver and occupants and also covers getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP is not an option in every state and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Buy Smart and Save

Affordable 2013 Chevy Camaro insurance can be sourced online and with local insurance agents, and you need to price shop both to have the best rate selection. Some companies do not offer you the ability to get quotes online and usually these small insurance companies provide coverage only through local independent agents.

As you prepare to switch companies, do not buy lower coverage limits just to save a few bucks. There have been many cases where consumers will sacrifice full coverage and discovered at claim time they didn’t purchase enough coverage. Your goal should be to buy a smart amount of coverage at an affordable rate, not the least amount of coverage.
