Car Insurance

In the United States, car insurance is manditory in most states, though enforcement of the requirement varies from state to state. In New Hampshire, for example, drivers are not required to carry liability insurance, while in Virginia every resident must pay the state a $500 annual fee per vehicle if they choose not to buy liability insurance. Usually, the minimum required by law is third party insurance to protect third parties against the financial consequences of loss, damage or injury caused by a vehicle. Coverage against loss of or damage to the driver's own vehicle is usually optional.

Car

The costs of owning a car, which includes the cost of buying it, repairs, maintenance, fuel, depreciation, parking fees, tire replacement, taxes and insurance. Throughout the United States auto insurance policy is required to legally operate a motor vehicle on public roads. In some jurisdictions, bodily injury compensation for automobile accident victims has been changed to a no-fault system, which reduces or eliminates the ability to sue for compensation but provides automatic eligibility for benefits. Credit card companies insure against damage on rented cars.

Classic Car

Classic car is a term frequently used to describe an older car, but the exact meaning is subject to differences in opinion. Legally, most states have time-based rules for the definition of "classic" for purposes such as antique vehicle registration; for example, Pennsylvania defines it as "A motor vehicle, but not a reproduction thereof, manufactured at least 15 years prior to the current year which has been maintained in or restored to a condition which is substantially in conformity with manufacturer specifications and appearance." Classic cars do hold value. If the car is garaged or taken care of then the appreciation value will go up. Also if the specific car is rare, then it will be worth a large amount. It all depends on the car make and model. Classic cars usually hold onto their value if not more. Insurance for classic cars often takes some extra efforts and consideration for the differences in valuation and the specifications classic car enthusiasts would require for repair work done after an accident.
