Then look at the demographic and the number of cars totaled. It's a brutal car to insure.

My insurance got cut in half moving to a car with nearly 100 hp more

Look no further than the first reply.

one's a not-so-fast tank and the other is a sports car. and the 2 claims and 2 tickets didn't help either
