I have liability only on mine. 2004, 35 years old. I pay a huge amount of $351 a year with metlife through my work.
my entire insurance for the year is close to some people's insurance here.
04 civic, $327, 05 aveo $310, 04 rx8 $351, RX7 full coverage $750
total: $1738 a year. this is with 2 drivers as well.

If it matters for any younger UK drivers on this forum considering RX-8s, 22 with 4 years no claims and a licence under a year old I was getting quoted for as little as £800/year for a 4-port/5-speed MT RX-8, when I was looking for one with only 2 years NCD (and if I had just got my licence at the time), was about £4400 for a 19 year old me to insure a 6-port/6-speed MT RX-8, £3300/year for a 4-port. No claims (as much as Ford Transits and BMWs try to change that, yet to succeed), no convictions (police seem to be intent on changing that), no cancelled/voided policies. All 04-07 plates, UKDM too, no autos since the only automatic I've ever driven is a Mazda MX-30.
The road tax can bite, however, since my 07 plate 8 is £600/year to tax but my old 04 plate 230 would have been about £235/year or roundabout there. So factor that into your running costs if you are a little tighter on cash but still want a rotary, always a horrible combo but you do you I guess.
