About $2,188 a year for full coverage on a national average — 52% more than the $1,438 average car. Insurers rate the Nissan 370Z at an index of 152 where 100 is a typical vehicle, based on how often and how expensively these cars actually generate claims (latest data covers 2018-2020).
The premium isn't spread evenly. Collision — damage to your own car in a crash — carries this car's highest loss index at 230, while Comprehensive sits at 109. That gap is the real reason behind the price, and it's the part a quote form never shows you. Against what the car is worth the bill looks different again: a 2017 370Z sells for a median $18,750, so a year of cover costs 11.7% of the car's value. Over 12 generations of data the index has climbed from 108 (2007-2009) to 152 (2018-2020). Calculated from 21 insurance-loss records and live US listing prices.
Why a 370Z costs what it does
Insurers don't price a car with one number — they track losses separately for each kind of cover. An index of 100 is the average vehicle, so anything above means this model generates costlier claims of that type:
Read it as «where the money goes». A high Collision figure means these cars are expensive to repair after a crash; a high Comprehensive figure points at theft, weather and vandalism instead. Estimated annual split at $2,188: Liability (BI + PD) $1,050 · Collision $613 · Comprehensive $263 · Other (UM / PIP) $263.
How it changed by generation
Insurance-loss index of the 370Z across every generation in the data. Newer isn't automatically cheaper — driver-assist systems cut crash frequency, while sensors and aluminium panels push repair bills up:
Each point averages every recorded variant of that generation. The 370Z has become more expensive to insure over time (+45 points).
What a 370Z costs by state
Where you park matters as much as what you drive. The 370Z's index applied to each state's average premium — the same car, the same cover, different postcode:
| State | 370Z est. / yr | vs national |
|---|---|---|
| Florida | +39% vs US | |
| Louisiana | +38% vs US | |
| New York | +32% vs US | |
| District of Columbia | +26% vs US | |
| Georgia | +21% vs US | |
| Texas | +20% vs US | |
| Wisconsin | -30% vs US | |
| Hawaii | -31% vs US | |
| Idaho | -32% vs US | |
| North Dakota | -33% vs US | |
| Vermont | -33% vs US | |
| Maine | -36% vs US |

Nissan 370Z insurance — frequently asked
How much is insurance for a Nissan 370Z?
About $2,188 a year for full coverage at the national average, versus $1,438 for a typical car. That's the model's insurance-loss index of 152 applied to the US average premium.
Why is the 370Z expensive or cheap to insure?
Its costliest area is Collision (index 230), which covers damage to your own car in a crash. Insurers set premiums from claim history like this, not from the sticker price.
Is that a lot relative to the car's value?
A year of cover is 11.7% of what a 2017 370Z sells for (a median $18,750). Cheap cars often show a higher percentage even when the dollar premium is lower.
Where does this data come from?
Insurance-loss indices published for real vehicles, combined with NAIC state average premiums. It's claim history, not a quote engine — so it shows what these cars actually cost insurers rather than what one company would offer you.
Will my own quote match this?
Treat it as a baseline for the car itself. Your figure also moves with age, driving record, deductible, mileage and ZIP code — the same 370Z can differ by hundreds between two drivers.
