Could be. I was just addressing the Quattro name. I think that was their first AWD offering. May have gone to it across the board since.

Try Zander. Dave Ramsey swears by them. I'd like to hear from someone who has checked them out.

This is where message boards get hard.
You've been with your provider for a long time, right? (I think you mentioned this a while ago). Which I also assume that means that you have some other stuff like home, life, jewelry, guns, vacation insurance. There is no negotiation, you simply set a day for a face to face meeting, explain that this $500 isn't going to cut it or I take everything down the road.
It does take some time setting with other agents, to get their offers after you present your entire portfolio for a competitive counter offer.
OR, as Mark ( I think) said, Put it under a liability only plan and move on.... IF it's less than about $35-$55 a month. You are rich, you can replace your own crap.
Seriously Zeke find an agent. Call Lisa Allen who owns State Farm Agency in Bloomington.
I pay $700 a year for PL&PD on our three vehicles, total. Both of us have pristine driving records.
Looked it up. We pay $815 a year on our 2018 A5 convertible. Clean driving record.
F#ck. This might be worse than getting shot in the ear. How many wrecks have you been in?
Thats $58 a month. I didn't mean for my #'s to be concrete (Although I should now better, but I'm lazy). Seems pretty dang reasonable to me.
The last time I looked at insurance with our friend Karen over on Spencer, my PL PD was about $38/ month... That was probably 12 yrs ago. Since then, I turned everything over to the female who doesn't expect to live with me much longer. ... So I have no idea what we are paying.
I have a 17 y/o driving a new car (#Hamco things). AMA.
Also, you should shop your insurance every year. Also also, rates have gone us 22% YoY for all quarters so far 23 vs 24. Guess who's never going to be poor? The Catholic church and insurance companies.
The greatest trick the insurance companies ever pulled was getting state legislatures to make it mandatory.

I’ll bet 90 percent of the wrongful death cases I had had state minimum coverage
OMFG please don't get me ****ING STARTED ............. Absolute ****ing ORGANIZED CRIME BULLSHIT ! ! ! !!
You need to find an independent broker. I've been using the same guy since 98 (other than some out of state living). I have full coverage on 2 vehicles, although they're older than your vehicle, and pay $770/yr. My homeowners is through him too and I'm right around 1k annually on it. I've been with the same company now for both of those for 14 years. He shops it every year and so far, not worth it to switch. My son uses him for auto also and he's moved him 3 times in 7 ir 8 years, each time finding him some savings without lowering coverage.
Happy to DM you his info.

How mant tickets?
How mant at fault accidents?
How many DUIs?
Did the girls take you car and wreck it on 3rd st?
Holy shit, I had not even thought of this angle.
Did the girls ever tear down a power line?
Did the girls ever, successfully stop a train?
Did the girls ever park INSIDE a drive through.
Did the girls ever make a drive through in a carry out store only?
So many questions about your girls...... I mean, driving record. WE can save you though I am sure.
Yes please! I have one person I want to talk to, but I’d like several. Thanks!
I just went through this nightmare a with my car. I was using Chubb and was paying $2,000 per quarter. On top of that. My health insurance with BCBS was $1,350 per month!
So, I just started dealing with health insurance “consultants”. And found the same coverage for less than $700 and I still can go to U of C Med Center, Northwestern Hospital and Rush. All the same docs.
But back to the car insurance, everyone said Chubb or Pure were the Rolls Royces of insurance. Wrong. So, I started just making phone calls and I went and met with State Farm. And they are seriously the best (at least the office I deal with). They cut my Auto Insurance in half with the exact same coverage! It’s a Greek family and everyone who works there is related. You just feel the family vibe. Just kind people.
I would be happy to forward all of these guys’ information to you and I think they can really help you. Let me know. They’re good people. It’s worth a try. No way you should be paying that much for an ‘18 Audi.
Find a good independent insurance agent. You’re getting fleeced.
If you haven't had a claim in 10 years and your car is around $40k new, then $500 a month is highway robbery. That is around 80% (give or take) of your likely car payment on a 5 year loan. Shop around.
Accidents usually only stay on your insurance "record" for 3 to 5 years.
WTF? Both my kids went through Progressive. I switched my cars to Progressive last year. No one ever had to drive around with anything for a week. It was literally a 30 minute process. You sure you didn't kill someone at some point?
I looked up my Progressive policy. This is what I pay. All are $250,000/$500,00 liability, Uninsured Motorist. Full collision and comprehensive with a $500 deductible. Rental car coverage. Etc.
2020 BMW 330i: $69 monthly
2018 Subaru Crosstrek: $40 monthly
2018 Fiat Spider Abarth: $33 Monthly
Total: $142 per month. You're getting taken.

Someone with Progressive insurance hit me on Memorial Day. I’m still dealing with those bastards….well I was, I filed the claim thru my insurance and they said they would go after them.
When my car was totaled, I had dashcam footage of the whole incident. There could be no question of fault. My insurance company paid out right away for my total loss (less deductible) then went after the other driver's insurance to recoup the money (and my deductible). It took over a year, but I finally got the $500 back.
I don’t even bother shopping for car insurance. Every car I’ve owned since 1985 is covered by USAA. They do me right the few times I’ve needed them - always the othe driver’s fault. I contact them with all the information and they care of everything. They even reserve the rental car while the car is in the shop. I compared prices a couple times years ago and they were a little more expensive, but not that much and it’s worth it for the service, plus I do home ownership insurance, credit card, banking, mortgages, etc. with them too.
My newest car they cover is an Audi RS5. Similar to yours but considerably less practical.
I’ve owned nothing but sports coupes to date. Wife likes 4 door vehicles so it worked out for when we need a practical drive. Adults aren’t going to ride in the back seats of mine.I don’t even bother shopping for car insurance. Every car I’ve owned since 1985 is covered by USAA.

It's my wife's car. I wanted the RS but she decided the A5 was enough power for her. Gotta say I am not real thrilled with my Audi. Little things keep failing - window motor, convertible top spring, keyfob - annoying as hell.
Mine has been great, except replacing the brakes was very expensive. The guy at the shop said, “Audi is very proud of their brakes.” I said, “they better be at that price!” They’re substantial brakes and smooth as butter when braking now.
Next time tell them you know someone in the parts business who is calling bullshit.
They are. And truth be told they're the same thing we offer.
Speaking the language of the dream team. Hooky was watching the copa and James Rodriguez was playing for Colombia. I was like damn what happened to that dude. He had that massive World Cup a decade ago went to Real Madrid loaned to Bayern then disappeared. So now he comes back to play at retirement age playing in NB GRILLERZ cleats!! NB even targets players in their final years!!! How do they know. They honor their brand.
Probably slipped into some jorts after the game and had the entire team over to his VRBO for burgers and dogs on the grill.
