Is this true? Just a simple question is all.
I didn't want to believe my buddy but he was very seriouse about it...
He says that like a Subaru wrx or whatever they are the one with like 300hp I don't know the exact name for them are like the most expensive car to insure right now in CA...He said they were more expensive to insure then like a Ferrari?!?! |

yeahh really expensive. i was looking into an evo ix about last year. got a quote about like $2000+ a year or $280 a month. i dont remember. but that was the reason why i didnt get one
 reason why: no side airbags, whole body made out of aluminum, the lightest metal, to save weight. thus if you get into an accident, your cars totaled basically. but eff the car, your life is at constant risk 286hp stock, 300+ tuned times(aluminum body, no side airbags) = broken bones

STi, Evo, G35 coupe, 350z, S60R, and S2000. The STi, Evo, and G35 coupe were almost the same, off by about a $100ish a year. The 350z, S60R, and S2000 were the most. I was surprised about the S60R, being a Volvo and all. I ended up going with the Evo. |

STis are incredibly expensive to insure. They cost more to insure than an M5.

It's all about statistics, people with WRX seems to wreck more or get it stolen and the insurance under writer will base the price on that...a car's value has very little to do with insurance rate, it's the class and statistics they fall into that matters.

When I had my Evo IX they quoted me 7k for 6 months!! My record is a little fked up, and I was 18 back than. So I had to change my address and insure the car under my moms name so I can drive it.

My insurance went up $36 every 6 months when I switched from my 335 to M3. I thought it would be more. I carry maximum coverage. My mom is 55 y.o. and she has a S2000 as a third car. It is expensive to insure, even for her.
