Totally true. When I owned an Acura Integra my insurance was unusually high. It was explained to me by an insurance underwriter that the Integra had the highest theft rate of any vehicle on the road. A certain segment of the population, that favored driving Honda Civics modified to be low to the ground, with loud mufflers, and tinted windows, targeted stealing Integras for their higher performance parts to soup up their rides.
