i'm driving down to get my fit today. that is, i'm driving down to pay for it. the insurance doesn't go through until tuesday because, apparently, esurance doesn't have the fit in their databases. i may have to pay for it tonight and then drive back on tuesday to get it. has anyone else had this problem? i'm trying to convince esurance to expedite the process, seeing as i did all the preparation about a week ago and still have to wait.

 

I got my insurance over the phone with Geico and was able to drive out of the dealer when it was delivered. The Fit wasn't in their system either, I had them use the Scion xA for the quote.

 

I had my Ins. before my car was even delivered.

 

The same for me but substitute a Civic.

 

that reminds me. maybe i should call my insurance now.. since the car is coming in next week (hopefully)

 

yea u should it's better since u have the vin #

 

see, i gave them the vin number and everything and i said they could use the scion or the civic, but they don't seem to want to do that.

 

huh thats weird they should have the fit in the system

 

Geico put me on hold to manually add everything in their system.
They sent me my insurance card saying a 2007 Civic DX. I called, and the representative told me it wasn't in their system, so they picked Honda's closest vehicle.
I then said if I get pulled over in NJ like that, I'd probably have nine tickets written by same a-hole cop.
So, she manually did it for me.

 

got my ins the day after. state farm had it in their system. even showed the lady there how the seats work hehehehe

 

Usually you have 30 days or something to add the new vehicle to your policy, though you will be back-charged to the date of purchase (since they really provide coverage during that period).

 

oh k I guess give them couple weeks

 

Strange...Geico already had it in their system in April when I called.
I thought all the insurance company needs is the VIN#, so once you have that they should be able to cover you...

 

Safeco thinks that my Fit is a 2-door coupe!!

 

thats wat I thouhgt too oh well

 

thats crazy!!

 

so it's all worked out. i talked to my esurance guy and he got it ready for today! still waiting on the e-mail, though. thanks for all the info.

 

Could be when you asked for esurance they thought you meant assurance?

 

i got my qoute using an insight

 

Kind of on topic. When I bought the S2000 back in 1999, the insurance company listed it as a Civic also.
