Default quick question for someone who went from a B5 A4 to a B5 S4(regarding insurance costs)

what kind of jump, percentage wise, did you see in insurance premiums when you went to the S4?

Default The problem with this is that it's very much driver/location dependant. (more)

you should be able to call your insurance company and get a quote or call a different company and get two quotes - one for the A4 and for the S4.

Default my agent is closed for the night... i was just looking for a vague ballpark figure

yes, i know vague and ballpark are redundant, i was just wondering if someone could tell me like "2 times as much", "4 times as much", "1 billion times as much", or anything like that.

nothing is happening right away, and besides there's no phone in the room, and i'm not leaving the sox-sox game!!!

Default went from a 99a4 to a 2000 s4....

went up about 50%, but my insurance is dramatically lower than some of my friends... depends on driving record and where you are obviously....

Default quick progressive quote gives me 197/month

i wanted to see about a quote with me having some speeding tickets, open bottle, two DUIs, open bottle violation, passing a school bus, leaving the scene of an accident, and a vehicular homicide, but then i got to thinking progressive might somehow save this info and question me about them all if i ever go to them for insurance... heh

by the way, in the past 35 months(what they asked for) i had one speeding ticket, 72 in a 55, i just wanted to see if i could get like a 5,000 a month premium or something.
