If you have full coverage, your comprehensive and collision should be impacted by the increasing age of the car, unless its really old in which case you shouldn't have those coverages anyway.

Its possible that other things are happening in your particular situation which counters the impact of your car's age.

Just curious, at what point would you drop those coverages? Would you carry them on a car worth $5000? $3000?

I think the incremental yearly rate increases negated any drop in rates from age.
