Purchasing Car Insurance 2012

Purchasing the correct auto insurance policy and getting an affordable package may take a bit of comparison shopping. Many insurance providers offer low rates only when more than one type of coverage is included. Car insurance for young male drivers is likely to be more expensive unless a defensive driving course has been completed. When a new car purchase is considered drivers should check out rates offered by various companies for the preferred make and model.

Research Before Purchase
Some individuals will take a trip to the car dealership, pick a model and then try to secure insurance before driving their new purchase off the lot. Often the dealer partners with a number of providers but this does not guarantee the best possible insurance rates. If a particular make and model of car has been chosen the next step is to do some comparison shopping online. Numerous quotes can be viewed and any special information about the vehicle trim, added options and safety features can be entered. A final quote can be obtained before the car is ever purchased.

Changing Policies To Save Money
If an individual feels his or her insurance rates are too steep, a comparison site may also be the best place to start searching. Often a lower quote can be obtained but the new policy may require a substantial down payment. It is up to the individual shopper to decide whether to save money now rather than save over the next six or twelve months.

Most online comparison sites allow the shopper to build a custom policy from scratch. This means entering different deductible amounts for collision and comprehensive insurance, finding out what happens to the monthly premiums if PIP is added, and if there is a cost increase if the down payment is small. Car insurance for young drivers can be made more affordable if only the minimum amount of liability required is purchased. However the collision and comprehensive coverage may actually be more expensive unless additional liability coverage is added.

Adding A Teen Driver To An Existing Policy
It is always advisable to contact the agent and ask about adding a teen driver. If the youth will be driving the same vehicle that is already insured the rates are not likely to increase significantly. A car driven by a teen yet registered in the name of the parent will also cost less to insure.

Using an online comparison site is also useful because any quotes given will reflect state auto insurance laws. Whatever is required in a particular state, such as PIP or uninsured motorist protection will automatically be figured in.

The Best Cars of 2011

Many people, whether they may be parents, couples or new teen drivers, may be looking for a new car. Thankfully, 2011 saw the introduction of many fine models that are reliable, economical and a joy to drive. Below is a list of there of the best cars of 2011.

1. The Honda Fit

While new drivers may be looking for something a bit sportier, car insurance for young drivers can be extremely expensive. Those premiums will be much lower for something that has a bit less performance, but is still very reliable.

One such car is the Honda Fit. This car is in the smaller range of vehicles. However, it still sports four doors, powerful stability control and a rear hatchback. It benefits from Honda�s quality engineering, but still manages to make it into the budget price range. Money conscious drivers will also be glad to learn the car gets 30 miles per gallon.

2. The Nissan Altima

Other drivers may be looking for something that can drive around a family of four quite comfortably. The best option on the market from 2011 is the Nissan Altima. This four door sedan boasts a V6 engine and 26 miles per gallon. That is some of the best fuel economy of any family sedan on the market.

It is also a very comfortable ride. The interior is beautiful, spacious and very quiet. The four cylinder engine is both powerful and extremely reliable. Handling is also very secure. Over all, this is one of the best 2011 models a family can invest in.

3. The Ford Mustang

Lastly, no list of 2011 models would be complete without a sports car. While sports cars require expensive car insurance for young drivers, there is still one very reliable and economical option out there. That car is the 2011 Ford Mustang.

Although the Ford Mustang has always been a great stand-by for Ford, 2011 saw the introduction of the most refined Mustang in history. This included an overhaul of the Mustang�s engine to give it a much punchier V6. Acceleration is now much better. This 2011 model also gets a very nice 24 mpg when using a manual transmission.
