Massachusetts has set insurance rates.

You will on save money from a few Insurance place like Amica. They offer a 4% STEP 9 driver discount. AAA give members a discount.

Other than that all prices are the same.

I have a 2000 Vette with full coverage and 500 deds.

I have 300/500 on all optional insurance.

I pay $1450 with a STEP 9 Discount and Low mileage discount.

Here is a good site for mass insurance.

Why drive it if its only 800 miles a year? If you are looking to save money, sell it to someone that will drive it

Default Grundy?

Try Grundy. Vettes are considered collector cars there, even new ones.
You have to have another car, a daily driver, at least as new or newer than your Corvette.

They are a broker serving nationwide. In addition to Grundy, you might also check Leland West. There in LA......I know thats not close to Mass either, but again they are a broker serving nationwide. I have my coverage with Leland (underwritten by American Home). They have a restricted plan limited to miles of 2500 or 5000 per year. They offer stated value coverage. I used to live in Mass I know how the rates are there, but they are even higher in NJ. With Leland I pay about 1/3 the cost of what I was quoted by a traditional broker/agent. Good luck
