How much do you pay for car insurance?
DH and I are paying 2500 a year for an 08 small Acura suv. We have clean driving records and are over 30. We live in the city of Boston. Just trying to see if its worth it to shop around or keep it bundled with our home owners insurance....

there really isn't much shopping around you can do in MA - there's like this no-monopoly rule, everyone's rates are comparable
ETA: We pay $1500/year for an 06 Ford Escape and 06 Jetta in the suburbs
This is no longer true. The law changed several years ago and there's now open competition in the auto insurance market.
Thanks for clarifying - I knew something changed a few years ago, but for some reason thought the non-competition thing was still mostly true!

I am currently paying around $111 for my car insurance. I find it a relatively cheap full coverage auto insurance. I got it from Progressive at it is for my 2010 Chrysler Serbing. I have it on a 6 month policy that covers bodily injury, liability and medical payments. I do not have the collision coverage though
Woah, that's insanely expensive. Our car is registered in Somerville (which has high rates because its an urban area) and we pay ~$750 per year for a '07 VW Jetta. This includes a surcharge because we park on the street. We have clean driving records and are 29 & 36.
I recently go ours lowered because we use the car so infrequently (~2000 miles per year). When I told them that it knocked off about $20 per month. I'm assuming you're in a similar situation living in the city, so maybe give that a try?
A friend had a three or four year old Altima registered in the city (South Boston) a few years back, and she paid $1300/year. She was 28/29, and also had a clean driving record. (I remember this, because my car was registered in Springfield, and I was paying more than her for an older car.)
I'd definitely shop around if I was you. And be sure to look into any possible discounts - AAA, low mileage, etc.
I would for sure shop around!
We just moved from NC to Boston. My insurance was with Progressive, when I got a new quote from them it DOUBLED!
We shopped around and realized everything was lower, and went with Liberty Mutual, have car insurance, renters insurance and jewelry policy for less then our NC car insurance annual premium.
Insurance premiums are always changing, never hurts to get a new quote.
