I have enormous coverage. Past $500k dollars. I have a business. I also live in New York. I am certain the price difference would be tiny between the two. BUT! There is no question that wherever I would price them, the BRZ limited is more than the WRX.

WRX is very cheap to insure. People really have bad records or an insurance salesman that they do not know personally if they are getting reverse results. WRX is only $28 dollars a year more than a Legacy 3.6R, the safest production sedan possible (0 death rate).
Told you before that using death rates to determine safety is not even close to being accurate! There are many factors that go into determining the rates for cars and safety is only one very small part of it. Here the WRX is considerably more to insure. Probably is in loads of other areas as well. Hell, here a minivan cost more to insure than my FRS!
