The insurance on my 2014 Monogram was less expensive than the 2010 tC I had.
I asked my agent how that could be possible and she told me the rates are not just based on value. They look at a lot of different statistics like how many claims there have been against a certain model. So I'm thinking since the FR-S has only been out for 3 years there probably hasn't been near as many claims as a tC which there are a whole lot more on the road.

I also priced insurance for my sons 2008 Dodge truck and a policy with him and me and just the truck was $200 more (6 months) than him and me, the truck, a 1998 Expedition and a 2014 Monogram. She explained that one as 2 drivers and 1 vehicle is much more likely to be in an accident than 2 drivers and 3 vehicles. I can kind of understand but no matter how many vehicles we have we are still going to be on the road the same amount of time (just in a different vehicle) but insurance companies don't look at it like that, they look at statistics.
