2013 BMW M6 Insurance Rates – 6 Ideas for Best Quotes

Looking for cheaper car insurance rates for your BMW M6? I can’t think of anyone who enjoys paying for car insurance, especially when the price is too high. Insurance companies such as State Farm, Progressive and GEICO constantly blast consumers with advertising and consumers find it hard to ignore the promise of big savings and effectively compare rates to find the best deal.

Do you qualify for a discount?

The price of auto insurance can be rather high, but there are discounts available to reduce the price significantly. Certain discounts will be triggered automatically when you purchase, but lesser-known reductions have to be asked for before you will receive the discount. If you’re not getting every credit you deserve, you’re paying more than you need to.

  • Paperwork-free – Some insurance companies will give a small break simply for signing over the internet.
  • Payment Method – By paying your policy upfront instead of monthly or quarterly installments you may reduce your total bill.
  • Discounts for Safe Drivers – Drivers who don’t get into accidents can pay as much as 50% less on M6 insurance than less cautious drivers.
  • Save with a New Car – Insuring a new car is cheaper because new vehicles have to meet stringent safety requirements.
  • Bundle and Save – If you have multiple policies with one insurance company you will save approximately 10% to 15%.
  • Accident Waiver – A handful of insurance companies permit an accident before your rates go up if you are claim-free for a certain period of time.

As a disclaimer on discounts, some credits don’t apply to all coverage premiums. The majority will only reduce the price of certain insurance coverages like comprehensive or collision. Just because you may think all the discounts add up to a free policy, companies don’t profit that way. But any discount will reduce the cost of coverage.

What coverages do I need?

When it comes to choosing the best insurance coverage coverage, there really is not a one size fits all plan. Your needs are not the same as everyone else’s and your policy should reflect that. For instance, these questions could help you determine whether your personal situation could use an agent’s help.

  • Do I need an umbrella policy?
  • Do I need more liability coverage?
  • What can I do if my company won’t pay a claim?
  • What is an SR-22 filing?
  • Should I drop comprehensive coverage on older vehicles?
  • Can I still get insurance after a DUI?
  • Why am I required to buy high-risk coverage?
  • Am I covered if I crash into my own garage door?

If you can’t answer these questions but one or more may apply to you, you may need to chat with an agent. If you don’t have a local agent, fill out this quick form or click here for a list of insurance coverage companies in your area. It only takes a few minutes and can provide invaluable advice.

Insurance myths debunked

Consumers can’t ignore all the ads for car insurance savings by 21st Century, Allstate and State Farm. All the companies say the same thing about savings if you switch to their company.

How does each company make the same claim?

Different companies are able to cherry pick for the right customer that makes them money. For example, a profitable customer could possibly be over the age of 50, has no prior claims, and has a high credit rating. A customer getting a price quote that hits that “sweet spot” will get the preferred rates and therefore will save when switching.

Potential customers who don’t meet this ideal profile will be quoted a more expensive rate which leads to the customer not buying. The ads say “customers that switch” not “everybody who quotes” save money. This is how companies can truthfully advertise the savings.

This emphasizes why it is so important to compare as many rates as you can. It is impossible to predict which company will give you the biggest savings on BMW M6 insurance.

Insurance coverage specifics

Understanding the coverages of your insurance policy aids in choosing the right coverages and proper limits and deductibles. The coverage terms in a policy can be impossible to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Below you’ll find the normal coverages found on most insurance policies.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

This coverage gives you protection when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. Covered losses include hospital bills for your injuries and damage to your 2013 BMW M6.

Because many people only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is a good idea. Normally these coverages are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Liability car insurance

This provides protection from damage that occurs to a person or their property by causing an accident. Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You might see liability limits of 50/100/50 that translate to a limit of $50,000 per injured person, a limit of $100,000 in injury protection per accident, and a total limit of $50,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Some companies may use a combined single limit or CSL which provides one coverage limit without having the split limit caps.

Liability insurance covers things like structural damage, court costs, legal defense fees and medical expenses. How much liability coverage do you need? That is up to you, but buy as large an amount as possible.

Collision insurance

This will pay to fix damage to your M6 from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage pays for things like colliding with a tree, crashing into a ditch and sustaining damage from a pot hole. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from older vehicles. Another option is to raise the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive coverage

Comprehensive insurance coverage covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers things like fire damage, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, hitting a bird, hitting a deer and damage from flooding. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Med pay and PIP coverage pay for bills such as EMT expenses, doctor visits and funeral costs. The coverages can be utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. It covers not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants as well as if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal Injury Protection is only offered in select states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Shop smart and save

We just presented a lot of techniques to compare 2013 BMW M6 insurance prices online. The most important thing to understand is the more quotes you get, the better chance you’ll have of finding lower rates. You may even discover the lowest rates come from a lesser-known regional company. Regional companies may often insure only within specific states and give getter rates compared to the large companies like Progressive or GEICO.

As you prepare to switch companies, never reduce coverage to reduce premium. In many instances, an insured dropped liability coverage limits and learned later they didn’t purchase enough coverage. Your goal should be to purchase a proper amount of coverage at the best price while still protecting your assets.
