How to ensure you have enough coverage on your BMW M3

If you own a BMW M3 or are thinking of buying one, it’s important to have enough auto insurance coverage. Here are several car insurance coverages that can be beneficial if you drive a BMW M3:

    Collision coverage

    Collision insurance covers your vehicle’s repairs after an accident or single-car crash.

  • illustration card https://a.storyblok.com/f/162273/x/665da91bf7/comprehensive-coverage.svg

    Comprehensive coverage

    Comprehensive insurance covers non-collision repairs, including damage from floods, fires, vandalism, and theft.

    Gap coverage

    Gap insurance — short for guaranteed asset protection — is valuable if you lease or finance a BMW M3.[2] If you total your car or someone steals it while you owe more than what the car is worth, gap insurance will cover the difference.

    New car replacement coverage

    If you total your BMW M3 in a covered accident or loss, new car replacement will provide a higher payout so you can purchase a new vehicle of a similar make and model. Without this coverage, your insurer will base your payout on your car’s depreciated value.

    OEM coverage

    Original equipment manufacturer (OEM) coverage pays to use genuine BMW parts if your M3 needs repair after a covered loss. This endorsement is important because many car insurance policies only cover the use of cheaper, aftermarket parts.

Methodology

Insurify data scientists analyzed more than 250 million quotes served to car insurance applicants in Insurify’s proprietary database to calculate the premium averages displayed on this page. These premiums are real quotes that come directly from Insurify’s 500+ partner insurance companies in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Quote averages represent the median price for a quote across the given coverage level, driver subset, and geographic area.

Unless otherwise specified, quoted rates reflect the average cost for drivers between 20 and 70 years old with a clean driving record and average or better credit (a credit score of 600 or higher).

Liability-only premium averages correspond to policies with the following coverage limits:

  • Bodily injury limits between state-minimum rates and $50,000 per person, $100,000 per accident
  • Property damage limits between $10,000 and $50,000
  • No additional coverage
Full-coverage premium averages correspond to the same bodily injury and property damage limits in addition to:
  • Comprehensive coverage with a $1,000 deductible
  • Collision coverage with a $1,000 deductible

Quotes for Allstate, Farmers, GEICO, State Farm, and USAA are estimates based on Quadrant Information Services’ database of auto insurance rates.
