i think its based on how many cars made per year versus the amount stolen like a ration of 6000:600= 10% risk factor for the insurance company=higher premium....

find this hard to believe. i am guilty of locking myself out. i must say it is a pain in the *** to unlock the car doors. unless the thiefs are beating their way into our cars. its hard to believe these claims

Heard it on a national MSNBC broadcast "The Evo is rated the 2nd most stolen car behind the Cadillac Escalade". My theory is that they're mostly taken for brief "joy rides" then abandoned. Since the Evo have such a good rep. for being a fun car to drive, many punks take em' to see how they handle. Their local Mitsu dealership won't let em' take one for a test drive I guess.
