Which factors influence car insurance premiums?

Car insurance premiums for a BMW Z3 can be significantly different depending on several factors. Taken into consideration are:

  • Higher performance Z3 vehicles cost more
  • How many accidents you have had
  • Multiple policies can save money
  • Use of your vehicle
  • Special coverage such as replacement cost
  • Your occupation
  • The amount of protection requested
  • Whether you rent or own your home

An additional factor that helps determine BMW Z3 insurance cost is the year of the vehicle. Older models have a reduced actual cash value than newer models so repair costs tend to be lower which may result in lower rates. But new BMW models may have safety features including pedestrian detection, dual-stage airbags, and blind-spot warning system that may help help offset higher rates.

Liability coverage

This coverage provides protection from damages or injuries you inflict on other people or property in an accident. Liability coverage protects against things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. Coverage is generally pretty cheap so you should buy as large an amount as possible.

Collision insurance

Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by collision with an object or car. You first must pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in. BMW Z3 collision insurance is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. Drivers also have the option to raise the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive coverage

Comprehensive insurance covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage. The highest amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle's value consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

This provides protection when the "other guys" either have no liability insurance or not enough. Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is very important.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance pay for expenses such as doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses. They can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available and may carry a deductible.
