Do you think insurance will be much higher than my 2005 TL?

And Jesal, how do the rates compare to your 335i?

I compared insurance quotes...I guess you get a good discount for having a 3.0+ GPA and being a student so it comes out roughly $100 more a month than the TL
They're quoting me almost $600 a month for the TL though, and we pay roughly half of that. Thats just going by eSurance though...i'll give our actual company a call tomorrow.

^ Hmm i might have to shop around then.
S2k is costing me $400 more a year than the 335.
And the S2k is listed as a pleasure car thats driven less than 7500miles a year
But I also have a couple tickets in the past 3 years.

Seems like you caught the same virus like me. Except it took me a year and a half. You should throw a piggyback computer in there man, it'll become a little rocket. In all honesty, I already regret(kind of) getting rid of that car even though I had no choice...it's a really nice coupe.

What would you get? I still love the 335 for what it offers.
Although having two cars is really more fun. Once you get tired of one of them you can swap and drive the other for a bit. Makes you really appreciate the other for longer.
I'd be amazed if i get tired of the S2k. I dont even have an urge to mod it yet... thats a first for me.

Thats also the best rate I could get, the rest were well over $500/mStill cheaper than the $6,900/yr quote I got for the RSX-S and $7,900/yr quote I got for the E46 M3
So what do you think? 05' with 24k miles for 21.5?
Also, what is the average gas mileage you guys are getting in the city? I wish I could do more highway driving but driving in DC is a b*tch. Some of you NYC folks pitch in

But like Jesal said, it wouldn't hurt if you looked into getting the S2k as a weekend warrior.

I was an early adopter...and amazingly, still on the original fuel pump. I like the s2k idea...i might have to think this one over. Problem is, I like having a FWD commuter car due to the crappy weather around here.
