IF there is a kit released OEM, it might sway me to Scion over Subaru.

That being said...the car currently meets what I wanted from it, and I expect I can get 20hp from bolt ons (plus some nicer noises!).

27xxlbs + 220hp + RWD + great handling = happy me. I don't really NEED more, but if it's easy and reliable to get more, of course I'm ok with that.


I'd echo what some others are saying though.....I've had a 350hp IROC-Z Camaro, a supercharged Mustang Cobra, an Eclipse GS-T (POS!), a Suzuki SX4, and my current VW GTI.

I had the most fun in the SX4. It was slow...but the suspension tune was good and I had an absolute BLAST sliding that thing around on deserted gravel roads and through parking-lot created autocross courses (IN THE SNOW!). It was also basically invincible...nothing could hurt that car.
