Performance Car Insurance – What You Should Know

Article by Jessica Tanady

Since cars are usually mass produced, some people may not be satisfied with the way the cars they bought look or perform – especially when getting them straight from the factory. There are many people out there that want to look different from the rest. They have no choice but to customize the cars to suit their personality and tune them so that the cars perform better on the road.

Some may opt for a more powerful engine under the hood, while others opt for bigger exhaust pipes. There’s really nothing wrong with injecting some personalities to your cars. Some would like to realize their dreams of being a speed demon, so they modify the cars to get the best speed as possible. Whatever changes you do to the car, remember that the car insurance you get will need to accommodate those changes.

When your car has been modified and altered for better speed and performance, it will be referred to as a performance car. Instead of getting regular car insurance, you will instead need to get performance car insurance. This is a way to legalize the changes and make sure you won’t get any trouble when driving it on the road. These are some things that you need to know when getting performance car insurance.

First, the insurance company will need as many details as possible regarding the modified car. They need information on the car model, the production year, the modifications and changes you have made to the car and any other related information. Failing to provide this information in detail may result in the insurance company rejecting your request.

Second, be prepared to pay for higher premiums for the car insurance. You can keep the rate slightly lower by making sure you have a detailed list of all the modifications and working with the agent to ensure that you are not over charged. You will want to keep track of every little detail about the modifications, so that your insurance agent can suggest what kind of performance car insurance you will need – so you don’t have to pay more for features that are not really required.

To conclude, to get the best rate for your performance car insurance, make sure you provide all the necessary details to your insurance agent. Modifying your car to be the best requires you to protect it even more – so price should not be the only determining factor.

Performance Cars question by maxc: would 100lbs make a big difference in a cars performance?
would an additional 100 pounds in two identical cars make any appreciable difference in performance? lets say the cars weigh 3600lbs and 3500lbs and they have 450 hp each (remember the cars identical except for weight).

acceleration, top speed, maneuverability, stopping distance etc.

i would say no because of rolling resistance and no additional air drag on cars – my friend begs to differ!
remember, a BIG difference. of course it would make A difference, but an appreciable one? a one that you could FEEL?

Performance Cars best answer:

Answer by Ryan
You can’t fight physics. Adding 100 lbs would make a difference just as would adding 1000 lbs. It’s merely a matter of degree. Adding 100 lbs in unsprung weight would especially make a difference.
