I was surprised, but my insurance went down when I replaced a 2009 Passat with my 2004 986 S.

Suspected cause
I also have 2 other cars, am 40 years old and no accidents, but probably a speeding ticket or two that would show up.

Suggestion
Generally insurance is based on cost to repair/replace and not so much on performance in a given model.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Generally insurance is based on cost to repair/replace and not so much on performance in a given model. Other factors include miles driven, driving record, location and of course the big one AGE of the driver (sorry Big Jake) under 25 is a big hit in cost.
I was surprised, but my insurance went down when I replaced a 2009 Passat with my 2004 986 S. The Passat was a fairly nice performing car, but nothing compared to the Boxster
Jake,
My '99 is $186.60/6 months
My '00 Base is 197.00/6 months
My '02S is $247.70/6 months
My '99 996C4 is $312.60/6 months
Hope that gives you something to compare.

That seems like a really good rate IMO if that is for full coverage. I think mine runs about $375 every six months for full coverage with high deductible and and high coverage limits.
GEICO just quoted me $95 for 6 months of liability on the 98 boxster. $150 for 6 months with full coverage and a $500 deductible. $180 for 6 months with a $100 deductible. I also have 2 other cars, am 40 years old and no accidents, but probably a speeding ticket or two that would show up.
I pay right at $500 every six months on my 2000 base (full coverage) and a 96 nissan hardbody pickup (liability only). I have a perfect driving record and no tickets ever and am 33. I have Geico insurance. I do carry the higher $300k limits but I think my deductible is $1500 too.
Shoot, I pay around $270 every six months with $300k liability and $0 deductible full coverage on the Box - and that is with one at-fault accident (hit a Merc S500 with the Soul last summer
) I LOVE North Carolina insurance rates!!
My Boxster is on my insurance policy as a "pleasure" vehicle, driven less than 6500 per year. 12 months full coverage on my policy that has two other cars and my homeowners is $297.00 .
