Don't hold your breath waiting for your insurance to go down, I was told that my insurance would go down everytime I hit a certian age, I'm 60 now and it hasn't happend yet.
But I do get insurance cheap now I have 4 cars insured 1 car had full coverage and the other 3 just liability, I pay about 1200 a year.
On an 08 corvette, 02 Zo6, 08 Pontiac Solsitce 2.4, and an old 91 miata.
I had my first accident 2 years ago, it soon will be off the policy

My Z costs me $500/year with State Farm. For all 3 vehicles we pay about $1500/year. Get a multi car discount, safe driver discount, less than 7K miles per year discount, over 50 discount and ABS and Antitheft discounts.

I pay about 900 a year with really good coverage. Much less than I thought it would be when I bought the car. I'm 24 with (I think) 2 tickets on my record... 1 ticket for sure for 15 over. Lame, I know.
Hopefully it's true that it goes down when you turn 25. Since I was involved in an accident in my truck, I pay 2080 a year for the vette and my truck (05 dodge ram)...
For anyone thinking about progressive, they quoted me over $4k a year with LESS COVERAGE than I have now for the vette, my truck and my motorcycle.. and now that I bought another car (for my wife) I cant even imagine what they would want LOL Crazy!

$596/year with multi-car, and other discounts.
Even insurance companies put a lot of weight on credit rating, even if you have never been late on a payment to that company.
I figure I am getting close to a 50% discount over what a new customer would get.
My daughter was going to keep the same coverage on her car, but split off our policy and the premiums doubled, even though she is almost 25 with a good record.
I think AIG is offering killer deals these days!

If you're shopping around for better insurance prices, one way to help yourself is to be better educated about the subject. By that I mean if you know what to tell the insurance companies in some cases you can save hundreds of dollars a year on your premium.
There are some things listed here that may help you lower the cost, and shopping around and comparing especially online is a good way to compare too.

I'm with state farm, clean record, paying about $600 per year with $1000 deductible.
I'm dropping everything except liability, though. I was tagged by an uninsured driver (literally, minding my own business and got hit), made a claim, and the insurance co. nickel and dimed me on the labor rate. Their market rate survey didn't match mine.
Damn insurance is just another con game. I should have known better than to get full coverage.
