It's not the car. It's medical bills (of other people)

Edit - I see VG was responding to track insurance. Yes - cheap car (although in the minority on that one).

Really stupid on State Farms part but underwriting is very inconsistent within companies. Shoot me a pm if you'd like to talk. That car really does belong with Haggerty assuming it is strictly pleasure street use. I usually place business there for customers with classics.

Oh joy....I've almost finished welding in a DAS Sport roll cage in my 911.....been with SF for 32 years.....

So if a friend of mine were to look for street car insurance that may have a lot of safety improvements where do you guys recommend? My friend may or may not have one of those alphabet insurance company's.

That's highly debatable. I consider it an old wife's tail. (unless you're talking about REAR seat passengers)

I use an alphabet soup insurance company's preferred member equivalent of Hagerty called American Collector for about $90 less a year on premium. You could also just use Hagerty. Neither cares that I have a roll bar, in fact you have to submit pictures of cars with any modifications including a cage, roll bar etc. The 997 was the hardest to get insured because it's "new." Since I insure 3 Porsches they call it a "collection." 944's save the day, again.

Just remember, they won't insure the cars for track use but disclosure that you track the cars does not restrict you from getting insurance for street use.

IIRC, American Collector used to provide Track Insurance. For a period, we had coverage for both the Boxster and 944S2. But then they notified us that they were no longer going to be providing that sort of coverage. Haven't tried it yet, but I believe PCA's partnered with Lockton Insurance for reasonable priced DE coverage.

Talk with Good Hands. Then I would kindly inform SF that you will be taking your business elsewhere, all your vehicles.

Any other options besides American Collector or Hagerty? I think I will contact them and ask about options as I don't want an issue with my other cars with my alphabet company since I have been with them for over 25 years.

Ask your company if they can provide collector car insurance or if they have a subsidiary. You're not going to be able to insure all your cars with companies like Hagerty or AC, anyways.
