My mom is primary owner on my car.
Also, I'm not a true driver yet.
Therefore, insurance is damn cheap.

FWIW, some people over at TDIClub have said that the T in TDI has made them pay more in insurance.
Guess the insurance companies don't care for turbos.

I pay as much for my rabbit as for my truck, which is 4wd, weighs almost twice as much, and has a turbo. But the rabbit comes up as a GTI in their computer, so I guess they think I'm racing it around (yeah! with all 52 hp). Really none of them are bad, as I've passed the 25 mark. I hear it goes down again at 50, but that'll be a while.
