I think the reason that loses are so high among those cars isn't that they crash hard, just the idiot "racers" who drive them crash them harder than asian ladies in Odysseys.

It's weird that the Tiburon is on the list, it never has been before.

6 out of the 10 worst to insure are because younger people drive them. But I cant believe that the vette is one of the better ones to insure.

Ever tried to get a Vette to race? It just doesn't happen. That's why they're on the "good" list.
