Yeah I payed $200 for my 8 I'm 21 now I was under my parents insurance. So I'm hoping it's the same for the evo or cheaper would be cool.

Nice car :) Curious why you did not check the insurance costs before buying?

Why would you buy a new car and not get a quote on the insurance?

Just for reference, before you buy it, simply get the VIN from the car you want, call your insurance agent, and they will be able to tell you exactly what you'll pay.

Live and learn...

Nice car!

I wouldnt worry too much about the insurance unless you are a teenager or have lots of tickets. I bought a C5 Vette at 23 or 24 and everyone was like "ooooh that must kill you on insurance!" "insurance must be as much as your payment!"
It was actually a couple dollars cheaper than on the 03 Tiburon I traded in on it. :scratchhe

My insurance was closed so I couldn't get my info to get quotes. And the reason I ds it us because I got it new years eve if I would have waited for Jan. 1st I would hav paid more for the car because taxes when up for 2010.

I had an 06 auto so I can't really compare w the manual rx8. The evo is alot faster and handles better, has the same mpg as the rx8, but it makes up for it with it's power. Oh one more thing the fuel tank is smaller than the 8's.And let's not forget the recaro seats man they hugg you so nice :)

im guessing you have an 08 evo?

rx8phase1
01-12-2010, 03:18 PM
heres the main differences of the 08 and 2010 evo since people have kept asking me. the rear tail lights have a black bacground wich looks alot better than just all red, second the early 08 models had hesitation at higher rpms some say that the 2010 comes from factory w more hp dont know if its true or if its just a better tune or both? and the center display is color instaed of red. And the 2010 has bluetooth mounted buttons on the steering wheel and the cup holder has a cover.

im also waiting for my warranty to be over so i can add performance parts. From what i've read and been told is that mitsubishi will try to void your warranty any chance they get, even an intake will void your warranty. I have also read that a mitsu rep. checks the cars on warranty wrk even the tires! well atleast i can add up my parts in the mean time and put them all together and then tune just once.

How'd that insurance bit go?
If it ends up being absolute HELL, what I would suggest is buying a motorcycle (cheap as dirt ones all over the place) put that down as your daily driver and put the car down for (whatever their term for weekend racer is)
Brought my insurance from (full coverage 200 deductable) $350 for just the car to $120 for both per month. I do actually daily my motorcycle though. *shrugs* lol
They also "limit" the mileage to 7,000miles per year, but if you read the fine print on the form they send you. If you don't submit the mileage they cannot alter your rates LOL.
Just an idea saves me crazy amounts of money on gas too!, but you have to daily the motorcycle to get that haha.
