would a coupe has higher insurance rate than a sedan?

[andylawcc]

coz i was told that coupe statistically has higher crash rate so the insurances are higher..

sorry for neffing with more car question...

I'm pretty sure it would because it might qualitfy as a "sports car" whatever their defination of a sports car is They just wanna make money. :|

Actually alot of it depends on the age of the car too. I think on my current plan I can get liability on almost any ccar before 94 or so for like another $20 a month (mind you my policy has 4 cars on it but...)

well, i don't know if they really do have a higher rate, but i know some coupes are not as good in crashes. A long door instead of a nice pilar beside you means side impact can hurt more. This applies to the civic, the 4door has a higher rating on side impact.

Yes, because I'm paying now for my ZX2 than I was for my Cutlass Ciera...and I realize age comes into play, but how else could they use a question of how many doors the car has other than to qualify the cost somehow?
