OOPSY!! I just reamed my insurance agent because when I initially purchased my Q50 and called to update my insurance policy, the Q50 was not yet in their system so she simply updated it to a 2014 G37. Since I was concerned that if I was ever in an accident (my first, lord forbid), that it would be denied due to it saying my car was a G37, I called today to update my coverage.
She notified me that my insurance would increase $200 a year ($1016 annually). I was shocked and tried explaining that the Q50 was the G37 just renamed. She didn't get it and said there was nothing she could do. She further explained that I have every discount available including good driver, multi policy, pleasure (versus commute) vehicle, and a handful of others, as well as being in their best category (which is their lowest cost). Well that still wasn't good enough as I felt it was still so much higher than my G37S so I told her that I would be shopping around for cheaper insurance.
After hanging up I got on the forum and searched for this thread to see what others are paying and besides Aggie (who has incredible rates for a single male, under 30) and Selzini (also single male, "slightly over 30"), my rates were one of the lowest. So I guess I won't bother shopping around for my home and auto policies since I've been with Traveler's for 4 years and in less than a year will have the accident forgiveness option (hoping never to need it).
I just seemed so surprise at the increase for the Q50. Especially since I paid the same for my G37S versus my Q50 (didn't know about VPP when I bought my G). I may revisit this issue with them in a couple of months when they FINALLY understand that although they consider the Q50 a "new model" that it is in fact a renamed G37 as advertised.
OK, glad I got that off my chest because I was so annoyed!
