Paying $1200 a year for insurance.

Any questions? :p

I'm not sure what you mean? New Jersey, or at least Newark, has some of the highest insurance rates due to a lot of theft.
My parents pay over $3200 a year in Long Island, NY and I've been quoted as high as $4400 in upstate NY for a lease on a brand new civic (although I was only 21 at the time).

yeah..my mistake, i thought he put something like $10k a year.

my neighbor pay $5500 for 6 months and a Woodbridge rookie cop who pulled me over back in 2003 said he paid $5100 for 6 months.

btw,
i got pulled over because of the out of state registration and insurance on my '03 GTi.
he only gave me warning but he banned me from driving the car until i have NJ registration.
i said to him that i'm not gonna go crazy with NJ high car insurance rate.
thats the time when he mention his rate (above) and said that i have to live the way NJ people do.
after a little arguing,
i ended up yelling at him and said that i will change my registration ASAP...,
but don't think it will be NJ..i rather move out of state!

I did move out from NJ!
i hate leaving NJ..but the insurance is just too much for me.
not only for cars..but for house too.
