Well, I can tell you this. My $36,000 truck is less expensive to insure than my $24,000 Acura RSX was.

These lists always confuse me... what terms is the measurement of "costliest" based on? For some people, an RSX may not be that expensive; it really depends on the factors, so I'm always left to wonder what sample set they've used.

Oh well. EP for the win

Because we are young and all we do is speed and get tickets. Now the RSX beckones that and that's the reason why we have to pay so much. They know how we are with cars and yes I have yet to still get a ticket. (KNOCK ON WOOD).

reading the article, it discusses smaller sports cars being costly to insure. i have to disagre. i've owned a Miatas for over five years and it has been the least expensive car to insure since driving beaters in high school and college. when i bought it, i priced it against an intergra of the same year and the cost of insurance for that car was 4x higher than the Miata.

Glaring omissions from that top 10 list? mustangs, bmws, etc.
