For what they are, Subaru's are probably the biggest ripoff in insurance. Even their slowest, inexpensive cars are too costly to insure.
My GF and I both own Subarus and I find the insurance cost to be quite reasonable. A little over $100/mo. for both cars/both drivers and $500k full coverage with $250 deductible. It helps that we're both in our 30's with good driving records though.
That always helps. It also depends on how old the car is as well. I'm 21, so obviously insurance is going to be higher. I'm insured (full coverage) on a 2004 Sentra at less than $100 a month. A 1998 Subaru impreza (with liability only) would have costed around $40 more a month.
I've also heard that insurance companies look at Subaru drivers like this:
less than 25 = Driving Subaru to race and be flashy.
older than 25 = Driving Subaru to be safe and smart.
Here's what my State Farm insurance agent quoted me several months back:
Subaru Impreza 4 Dr (Sedan)
2005 Sedan $673 per 6 Months
2005 WRX $753 per 6 Months
2006 WRX $778 per 6 Months
Honda Accord 4 Dr (Sedan)
2005 Accord DX $457 per 6 Months
2005 Accord LX $493 per 6 Months
2005 Accord EX $521 per 6 Months
2005 Accord ULEV $553 per 6 Months
2006 Accord VP $494 per 6 Months
2006 Accord SE & LX $504 per 6 Months
2006 Accord EX & ULEV $570 per 6 Months
2005 Subaru Legacy 2.5i Sedan $495 / 6 months
2006 Subaru Legacy 2.5i Sedan $506 / 6 months
2005 Subaru Legacy 2.5GT Sedan $516 / 6 months
2006 Subaru Legacy 2.5GT Sedan $565 / 6 months
My current car is a 1997 Subaru Legacy GT Wagon. On my own plan it is $404 per six months with full coverage.
