Default They are fun to drive, but feel squirrely with stock suspension and tires

Properly modd'd they are A LOT of fun, but a chipped TT should still hold its own.

I must say for the $$ it is a nice car.

Default I hate getting on this topic...

But TO ME, (it's my opinion, let me have it...) they have no style. Bang for the buck, but absolutely NO style. They are an average looking sedan with a hot engine and crappy AWD. And Yes, Torsen AWD is superior to Subaru's Viscous AWD.
It's my opinon people. I know this is a touchy subject, but I only posted "why?" because, every WRX driver thinks he (only men i've seen) can beat my car. I can care less really. I just drive agressively, that's all. It's just too bad that the WRX couldn't keep up with me. :-)

Default VERY amusing story about the WRX that relates to quality...

when I was at the detroit show with some friends...one of them jokingly said that tapping the front quarter panel would basically break the car due to its crappy quality. Well, he proceeded to tap the area right behind the headlight(not on the hood, but on the quarter panel..) once VERY lightly and....it dented! That should be a VERY strong area for the car! Needless to say we were laughing uncontrollably... :-)
