600 a month in car insurance? Do you live in Jersey? What kind of cars have those payments?

2002 Z28

I live in one of those older close to the city(Detroit) suburbs.
Wife has 4 points and I have an 18 year old daughter living at home.

Actual monthly cost would be closer to $400, but payments are broken up into 8 payments a year.
