Hey guys me again. I was just wondering in general, are 328's considered a sports car in most states .. namely Oklahoma?

Most likely, because it says BMW on it your going to be paying a premium for insurance.

aside from the fact that its a bmw, i think they pretty much classify them based on things like the amount of door, such as 4 door sedan, or 2 door coupe. i dont think "sports car" fits the 328.

isnt sports car defined as like a 2 seat, 2 door or something like that?

They shouldn't. But you should check around with some agencies in the area and see what they classify as a sports car. Good luck.

I see. Ok thanks guys

Yeah, I don't think doors necessarily have much to do with it. I owned a 99 323is and was paying $135 a month. When I got my 97 M3 it went up to $188 a month. Both were coupes. Thankfully I turned 21 and it went down to $118.

insurance here for a year ranges from $800-$1500, i'd say cheapest in all north america, i live in Central Canada..

I pay $600 for 6 months on two BMWs.

..so...

not neccessarily a "sports car" but the cost of replacement parts, your driving record, & age will have alot to do with your rates. Some co's will shove it in the sports car category - avoid anyone who tells you that - they're just scamming you for the $$$ on the premium.
