That may be true about the insurance costs. BUT, I think the reason is not the MPH difference between S/P and Pro. It is that they know the S/P cars have all those "buttons, switchs, automatically activated mechanisms, and such", and they are afraid the driver will not be paying full attention to his driving and run off the track or something, fall asleep, talk on the cell phone, text, etc. The drivers , by their own addmission, don't like to use the foot brake. The insurance company obviously sees that class as a higher risk for claims.
