Buying Car Insurance for Bling Machines, Souped Up, and Modified Cars

You've spent hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars outfitting your car until it's barely recognizable. Now how do you insure it?



You're in luck. Insure.com can assist you. From the company's press release:

Insuring a bling machine can get expensive if you want to be fully covered for the modifications you've made. Let's say you want to insure a '93 Toyota Supra that you bought for $7,000. It has a 600-horsepower engine, custom paint job, spoilers, ground effects, custom wheels, a highly customized interior and roughly $30,000 worth of stereo components. You poured around $130,000 into the car. Your estimated annual premium would be $2,000 to $2,500 -- and that's assuming you have a clean driving record.
