    Well here I am, trying to figure out what is considered "full coverage" in the state of GA. Since I'm a transplant from Austin, TX, I'm not too sure.

    Oh yea, I HAVE decided to go with the '06 WRX Limited I test drove at SOG last weekend.

    Anyways, I'm looking at Geico, and a few places I was told by people I know. I'm wondering if anyone else has any good suggestions and perhaps links to their site.

    Again, I'm trying to find out what level of insurence I need. Meaning, for coverage do I need the 50,000/100,000 or the 100,000/300,000. The first number is the minimum required by GA. I don't know if I can take minimum of all the types.

    Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Russell

    I have progressive also.
    Why are you buying a brand new car and trying to only get minimal coverage?

    I like Progressive as well, though I am currently with Allstate.

    Also, don't skimp on your coverages if you have any reasonable assets. I have a $2M umbrella policy which required maxing out all the insurance coverages below it, but if something ever happens it'll be worth every penny spent.

    Well here is what I've found.

    body - property - uinsured body - uninsured property

    25/50 - 25 - 25/50 - 25 1k/1k comp&collision
    eSurence = $645/6month
    Progressive = $699/6month
    Allstate = $1965 (no joke)

    The $1965 quote is basically stating "we don't want to insure you." I had a GEICO quote when I was 23 for something like $6k/year.

    For the extra $50 a year I would go with progressive. They are a good company and really do help out when you actually have to make a claim.

    The lowest quote I got when shopping for insurance was actually from allstate :)
