New (to me) Magnum RT owner
Just bought a 2005 Magnum R/T, and couldn't be happier--that is, until our insurance quote came in. Holy Crap!
I researched this car quite a bit before buying, but the one thing I never even thought about was the insurance on this monster. It's not breaking my budget, but it's costing me a hell of a lot more than I anticipated, and is taking some of the joy out of driving this thing. After driving a VW Beetle (my wife's car) for a couple of years, I really wanted something a little more...masculine, and always wanted a Magnum. I like the way they look, but let's get real--the only reason to buy one of these is for the HEMI power, and apparently, the insurance companies like to rape you for that small pleasure.
Any thoughts?

I have State Farm and I know they are higher than most, I'm 28 and pay $115/mo and I live in Arlington Tx. So.... I guess you will jus have to get another VW Beetle and call yourself Susan!

Let's see if this makes you feel any better about your insurance quote.
I was paying $530 per month due to points on my driving record.
As of 2 months ago some of the points fell off and I am now at $430 per month.
What was your quote and how is your driving record?
