Default Higher insurance premium because Honda Accord 2013

I have received my last statement of my cars insurance, and besides of a higher cost of insurance by the increasing of accidents that affect all drivers in general, the car insurance agent told me that the new Honda Accord 2013 is also the cause of my higher premium.

I was told that last year the ISO rating symbol for this vehicle was 8, but this year they catalogued as 10. The higher rate means a higher risk and by consequence a higher premium.

What Do ISO Rating Symbols for Auto Insurance Mean? - CarsDirect

I wasn't told the specifics of why the higher risk with the Honda Accord 2013, and there is no information about it in the web.

Funny how that works... Daughter went from 2007 Civic to 2013 Civic and her rates went down.

That stinks. I bought my Accord last week without checking on insurance rates. Of course I live in the lawsuit capital of the world, so all insurance rates are nuts.
