RX-8 didnt make this top ten

But four of the five cars I looked at prior to buying my 8 did.


The 10 cars with the most expensive collision losses, starting with the most expensive, from 2002 to 2004 figures from the Highway Loss Data Institute are:



Most expensive models to insure

1 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution
2 Mercedes CL-Class
3 Dodge SRT-4
4 Subaru Impreza WRX
5 Jaguar XK (convertible)
6 Lexus IS 300
7 Honda S2000
8 Acura RSX
9 Nissan 350Z
10 Jaguar XJ


(still feeling good about my car)

I guess if I LIVED on this forum I would have known it was a repost.

It's less expensive to insure an 8 vs. these other cars. How obtuse can you be?

How many threads about "how much does it cost to insure your RX-8" have been posted here? This is simply the flip side (obverse) of that coin.

Thanks, Valpac. BTW--Luv your avatar. Alone, unarmed, invulnerable. The Blackbird is one of the finest machines conceived by the mid-century engineering mind.

how ironic...I JUST saw that article when loggin outta hotmail about 2 minutes ago. I too was lookin to see what they had in there. Lil surprised not to find more muscle such as a Cobra or GTO.

Wouldn't say I was foolishly being optimisic, but I was hopin to see the 8 in the lower insurance class!
