Least Expensive Vehicles to Insure
March 26, 2015
When purchasing a new vehicle, there are so many little things for shoppers to think about. One thing that's often forgotten - how much will the vehicle cost to insure?
To help you out, Insure.com recently released its list of the costliest and cheapest 2015 models to insure. Two Jeep vehicles -- Jeep Wrangler Sport 4WD and Jeep Patriot Sport 2WD -- topped the least expensive to insure list, while the Nissan GT-R Nismo and Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Convertible topped the most expensive list. The full details below.
And if you're considering purchasing any of these vehicles, I recommend you use TrueCar No Haggle and Edmunds Price Promise to see the lowest prices being offered in your local area.

My Recommendation for Car Shoppers
TrueCar, Edmunds, and 1-800 Car Show are the quickest way to see the lowest car prices in your area. These sites show you no-haggle prices from dealers closest to you - and the deals are usually really good. This should be the first step you take when negotiating your car price. Follow this up with my checklist to make sure you squeeze out every last bit of savings.California Residents - Important:
There is a new online car buying service called Roadster, available only to California residents, which I highly recommend you try - especially if you hate the stress of haggling with a car salesman. They provide an expert concierge who negotiates the price of the car and delivers it to your home with zero hassle - you never have to interact with a dealership. Here is my in-depth review of Roadster and why I recommend it.- Gregg Fidan
