Ummm this is BS. Perhaps the ratio of how many were produced divided by how many were stolen is high, but overall, there are WAY WAY WAY more civics stolen every year (tens of thousands more). The insurance premiums are high because too many spoiled brats with no driving skills keep crashing the damn things.

No need to get upset...I really doubt this is going to convince someone who wants an evo from getting it...people get cool cars like the Evo because they are desirable...

Now, as for the insurance rate going up because they are stolen...not so sure

i bet civic gets stolen more than 10 times the evo. But there are so few evos than civics so im guessing evo has higher percentage than civic.

"The flashy car is ranked as among the most likely to be stolen."


keyword here is LIKELY not stolen. So.. its not the most stolen, but its most likely to be stolen, just like any other car...

People in my area don't even know what kind of car I have. They think it's some POS 4banger with a fart can.(which I guess is relatively true) then all the ricer's just go gaga over my car and eye**** the **** out of my car.(Wedding Crashers FTW)
