I'm leaning against the WRX because I have the opportunity to get a sports car and I've squandered that opportunity in the past and regretted it. Nothing is going to make the WRX feel like a small, light, RWD chassis like the twins. The new WRX seems to have a great chassis.... for an AWD 4 door. The question is if I'm a ***** and go the safe route again or if I buck up and take the bad (impractical, stiff ride, difficult to get in and out, questionable all season capability) with the good (telepathic handling, amazing chassis).
Sounds somewhat like me in the future. I too squandered my opportunity, only because I wasn't self-sufficient. I had a Neon when I joined the forums, missed out on an FR-S months ago due to joint ownership. I settled for a 2014 Corolla S instead. I had the same options myself (both share the same FA20 engine). Do what you feel the need to do, you're gonna love it either way.
