Expat car insurance in Texas

[1275GT]

Evening all, I have recently moved to Dallas, Texas from London and am likely to be here for a couple of years. After a few weeks of looking for the right car I placed a deposit on a mint 2012 Shelby GT500 this weekend (when in Rome, etc!).

Now the fun bit is going to be insuring it - any of you expats out there got any recommendations of insurance companies which might not be too painful? It appears as a new resident in the USA I will be treated like a new driver... I intend to get my Texas licence in the next few weeks.

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply - I am anticipating it to be pricey!

Did you use one of the bigger companies, State Farm, Geico etc. or use a smaller more local one?
