It's definitely hard to gauge your exact situation with respect to the insurance company because so many factors play into premiums from company to company, but i'm assuming that is quite a large increase(not sure what your 6 month premium is). That whole "oh that was just an estimate because we didn't really know about the car" line is pretty much a load of garbage though; they absolutely know the cost of all the parts and the labor associated with fixing the car probably as soon as it is available to the public, especially a car with previous generations. Theft? i'll buy the estimate nonsense about that, but they can't be too far off on the estimate. A $210 6 month increase to me would translate to a whopping 40% or so increase in my premium, and I know if they gave me some crap about their estimates being off by that much, i'd definitely take my business elsewhere.
