It is not more expensive to insure a red car. That is currently a myth. It may have been a factor in the past as people thought that people who bought a red car were more at risk for speeding and accidents, but that is not the case. If you get quotes from insurance companies they will not ask for the color of the car, or if they do it is only for record keeping and will not factor into the cost of insurance. Factors that do matter are the year, make, model, body type, engine size and age of your car, as well as drivers on your policy.

Would a Toyota MR2 be considered sports with state farm insurance?
State Farm does not classify vehicles in this manner. Instead, they have a rating groups for each individual vehicle. The higher the rating, the more expensive the vehicle is to insure (generally speaking, excluding other rating factors). I know this isn't a direct answer to your question, but please know that wondering if your vehicle is considered a "sports car" to an insurance company is irrelevant. Also, off topic, but it is a myth to think that a red car is more expensive to insure. Best wishes!

The color of the vehicle has absolutely nothing to do with the price of the insurance. I have heard this for yeard that read red vehicles cost more for auto insruance and this is absolutely falso.

Why is insurance higher on red autos or is this so?
Studies show that police pull over Red cars more than other colors. It may be the illusion of red as being a faster car. I don't think that insurance is higher for color, but may be if you get more tickets with the red car, thus upping your insurance rate. Certain car models that are in demand by young "drifters" and illegal street racers are stolen more and thus may lead to higher insurance too. If you are shopping for a car it is a good idea to call your insurance company and ask them which cars will cost more to insure than others.
