Plus the style may grow on you:

It continues to grow on me. Yours looks better than mine.

Jesus Myco...I didn't know yours was that pretty.

Definitely spend the money on a clean bugeye and some minor mods (protune, maybe stage 2, etc.) You'll get better mileage (2.0l engine, the tune will help a lot), you'll have more room for improvements, and believe me, they do look better.

I think the wrx is a nice middle-ground between compact economy car and sports car - it's a 4-cyl car that gets decent mileage for AWD, it's crazy useful (try sticking a full-size couch on top of a civic), and if you downshift and give it a good kick with your right foot, you'll get an instant smile!

You should drive one. They are the most raw WRX model for driving experience. Sure, you would like a new one, but it would beat the snot out of a Jetta. It has kept me happy for nearly 10 years. If I get tired of it, it just needs a detail to come back to life.

+1 to all of this.

Your scenery > my scenery. I really need to get the wagon up to the mountains and take picture while some body panels have shiny spots left.

We have quite the color spread now

That's what I was saying, rather than buy a civic or corolla, the new IMPREZA gets 36mpg, Yes I know the WRX is way less but the OP isn't sold on any one car and the context was impreza vs civic or corolla which are not even in the same class as WRX obviously. I'd just hate to see him get a corolla over a 2012 impreza because he thinks its more "sensible"... the new impreza is the same price as either of those cars and gets the same mileage but has AWD standard, pretty sensible if you ask me. SD if you drove the new Impreza back to back with a 2012 civic there is NO WAY you would go for the Honda trust me, I have driven both and it is not even close.

+1...never saw a Sonic Yellow wagon in person...however I have seen probably a total of 5 Sonic Yellow WRXs...I really wish they'd do a special limited run of that color on the new guys.

And the OP must be scouring the classifieds for a bugeye wagon surely.

Thanks everybody

It was a really really low run for wagons - 500-1000? Where I live is an epicenter for Subarus. I actually saw one pass by while I was in mine. The guy and I looked at each other dumbfounded, and it was obvious we were both afraid we had distorted the time-space continuum.
