I asked my agent why this car is significantly cheaper to insure than any of my BMW's were. He said that Porsche's are rated as one of the cheapest cars to insure due to the types of people who own them. Repair costs are high, but owners tend to be older, more mature, more courteous, etc. On the other hand, BMW is one of the most expensive due to primarly younger, less mature, more "spirited" drivers + the high cost of repairs.
Anyway, as previously stated, too many variables and not enough sample to draw broad conclusions, but enough andectodal evidence to say that Boxsters are fairly cheap to insure, I'd say!

Not too sure about that. Take me for example.
I am 25, married, no kids, and have the Boxster insured as a daily 70% me and 30% the wife (driving), I rent my place for the time being, and I have no speeding tickets and no accidents on my record. I have tow and car rental in my coverage and my coverage is pretty much topped out. I pay about 180 a month for that here is sunny Southern California.
See the giant price difference there...? There are a lot of factors that account for that difference.
