Civic has higher insurance rate than Corvette Coupe!?!?

Hm... Why's GS430's insurance so high up there though???

Maybe because of its reputation as a race car. You know, as in the Fast and Furious.

Hondas like the Civic and the Accord are high on the theft list and since parts are so valuable on the street they push the premiums up.

because that list is a list of cars that are probably targets for car thieves.

seems to me like interesting. does that mean it costs less to insure an sl500 or AMG model than a honda civic?

Or are all those cars just horrible in crashes?

Eitherway, glad I drive a benz. it just reaffirms that a benz is the only choice.
