They are the most expensive to repair and the most expensive to insure

In my experience it's the top trim premium performance trims that crooze everywhere, and the base model trims that always drive everywhere like they have something to prove to everyone else.

They're acutely pretty cheap to insure. There's fuck all of them and so few of them get driven. Same with classic cars.

Eh. Top trim cars are almost always just status symbols bough by people who don't intend to do anything but show it off to their neighbors and local car show regulars. The small number of people who buy top trims to actually drive them either go to a track or wait until nobody else is around to start hooning.
Base trim cars, on the other hand, are primarily bought by young/poor people who got caught up by the marketing and want a fast (looking) car to go fast in. There are also some people who get a base trim car purely because they like the body styling, but those are far and few between.
Mid-level trim cars, on the other hand, are bought by people who want a fast car for the price point. They're often the most down to race, and most likely to have some driving skills

A lot of it comes down to maturity imo. Someone who can afford the actual performance trims of a car is probably smart enough to realize having a sports car makes you enough of a target already, also no excuse is going to work on a cop if you're in a sports car, they just assume you're some retard who wants to hoon 24/7.
Meanwhile people driving poverty spec sports cars are probably too stupid to realize this and just bought a sports car because they want to go fast everywhere.
It is kinda funny watching the poverty spec cars trying to race me, you would think me refusing to race would put in their mind that I have a radar detector that is going crazy, but no, they just stomp the gas and pass a cop going 30 over like a retard.
