What vehicle insurance do you recommend?

We are currently in the process of purchasing a car and insuring the vehicle for 6 months while we are in the US.
The price is about $700 for six months ( No personal warranty for theft or personal negligence, only bodily injury ) so we are looking to reduce the cost a bit.
The period of stay will be 2 years from now and the vehicle is a 2010 Japanese car.
I would appreciate your advice on your recommended insurance companies, plans and costs.
I have been licensed in Japan for over 10 years, but I have no driving history in the US.

There seems to be NEW CENTURY, MERCURY, FARMERS,
ALL STATE, PROGRESSIVE, and others on the internet,
if you open the website from one side to the other and check.
If you go through an agent's office, it will be more expensive.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

If it is only a low paying auto insurance company, AAA would be a good choice.
AAA does not use agents and is therefore considered cheaper.
On the other hand, if you go to an agent who speaks Japanese because you are not fluent in English,
they will look at you and treat you very kindly, but they will choose the highest price for each item
and the price will be outrageous. The higher the price, the better the commission
the agent gets.
The lower the Deductible, especially if you have to pay it yourself in the event of an accident, the higher the insurance amount.
Also, the higher the coverage amount, the higher the insurance payout. No one wants to have an accident, but if you do,
you'd better be prepared for a big payout.
You might want to study the AAA website first. If you can manage to read and
understand English, then go for it.

Don't be fooled, AAA is the most expensive
By the way, your driving record in Japan should be evaluated.
By the way, be careful with cheap insurance companies. Even if the other party is at fault, if the other party's insurance company is a big one, you may get a 50-50 split.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

I give them AAA because of their quick response.
When I had an accident and had to scrap a car that I was paying a loan on, they covered all the remaining payments and did it pretty quickly, which was very helpful.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

Mr. Whip,
> Don't be fooled, AAA is the highest
On what basis ?
> By the way, Japanese driving history should be evaluated. There should have been a section to fill out
Is there such an insurance company in the US? There should be no such thing at the insurance company level. I am sure that State Farm, All State, and other major insurance companies do not have such a thing.
> Be careful of cheap insurance companies
That is true. I've never heard of some of these companies, but they charge low premiums, but they don't investigate accidents very well, and they pay very low rates.
Basically, the higher the deductible you pay in the event of an accident, the cheaper the insurance will be. Also, if you are the at-fault party in an accident, the other party will take this opportunity to rush to a small hospital like a private practice and collude with them to charge you an eye-popping amount of money.
I once rear-ended a car in front of me. The other car had some damage to the rear bumper, but two Latin ladies were in the car and they came out of the car after the accident, and since we were the major insurance company, they filed a $ million dollar claim for severe whiplash. I guess this insurance company is also good at such cases, because in the end I only paid a few hundred dollars for the part that was not covered by insurance.

You mean Musashi on the info board ?
No one will sell it to you even if it's loaded with cash.
If I were you, I'd be too scared to sell.Without an address, you're still unregistered, and even if you sell, you can't provide proof of sale to the DMV, so the taxes will always be there. I'd be too scared to sell it
and if you don't have an address, you can't even get insurance.
Even if you know someone and can rent an address, only an agent in Santa Monica will sell you car insurance with an international license

I don't want to be an idiot and ignorant, but this is true.
When I joined AAA 10 years ago, I got an accident-free certificate from Japan, translated it into English and sent it to them. I am inexperienced in driving in the US, but I was gold in Japan."There should definitely be no such thing," you say wrongly, Mr. Baikin. Well, I think ignorance is more foolish.

People who want to buy a car for a 90-day stay, I think they are probably coming with the intention of staying. Otherwise, they would not think of buying a car. Sorry if I'm wrong.

> Japan is the opposite of a steering wheel
Yes. That is the scariest thing. A long time ago, when a Rumonkaku (留(游)student who was doing a homestay in Beverly Hills was driving the children of a family there to school, he turned a corner and got into the opposite lane and collided head-on with an oncoming car.Long before that story, when I had just arrived in the U.S. and had not yet obtained my driver's license, the branch manager allowed me to drive his car for practice. So I went around and around the same block in my neighborhood many times during my lunch break. In my mind, I was mumbling to myself, "Right is 'small turn'".
I don't know about now, but at that time in NYC, the practical exam was held at a designated spot in a busy residential area, and the candidates would gather there. The branch manager's car was a huge Chevy ・ Impala, and I had been driving a Honda N360, which had just been released in Japan, so it was hard to get used to the difference.
