FD for 2500? Too good to be true?
I saw this ad on kijiji, where the owner's selling an FD for 2500... granted an RHD (aka insurance rape), but do you guys think it's too good to be true?

And I'm betting that no one is buying it because I'd guess it's a scam. The car in the picture does not have some of the promenant features listed in the ad:
No 99 spec front splitter
No 99 spec rear spoiler (hard to see the rear, but I don't see a spoiler)
No 5 spoke rims (those look like 8 spoke)

Its dumb, because they charge whatever they want, especially if they know they are the only ones willing to insure it.

I'm not even trying and I just named 6.
I've said this SO many times, the problem is NOT your RHD car. 80% of the time it's where you live, 20% of the time it's you.
Even if you live in the middle of nowhere and you don't have any tickets or accidents, you still have to FORCE your broker to write the policy. They don't want to, but you have rights, I have already typed up an almost word-for-word how-to on what to say to your broker to get your car written in another thread.

CloudPump, I own a LHD FD, a RHD FD, and an RX-8. The LHD FD and the RX-8 have very similar pricing (Less then 2k /year, RX-8 being barely more then the RX-7). My company Belair Direct doesn't insure RHD due to rules. Ok, thats fine but every company I've checked that will accept it was at minimum double the cost so I don't understand how it doesn't make a difference. I only get 3rd party insurance as well, no coverage on my actual vehicle.
I'm 25 with 2 minor speeding tickets (stupid new york) and have had my full G since I was 18 or so and been insured since I had my G1 @ 16. No accidents or insurance claims.
I guess I'll look into those companies when I get some free time. And yes I know you can force them with the filed rule and you don't have to tell them its a RHD until the end. Thanks.

Once I was over 25, married and moved/worked north of the city I finally saw my insurance rates drop slowly over the years.
