But you would end up with a faster car, that's cheaper to insure. Plus the cool factor of a pre-bugeye turbo Impreza.

It would cost more, but not much. Really, the only thing you would need to pay for, assuming you don't have the skills or stomach to do it, is the wiring; which is about $1K. That's assuming everything on the WRX is mechanically sound and you have the time, space, and mechanical inclination to do the swap.
Oh yeah, and the cost of the swapee.
