I don't know what those fuel economy numbers are in Freedom Units, but a FR-S isn't going to be significantly better than a WRX when it comes to fuel economy. You'll definitely save a few bucks, but I don't know if it's worth the depreciation/trade in hit with your WRX. My last tank averaged 28mpg (or whatever that is in metric) which is nothing spectacular.

You'll have to consider that into your "savings" as well. If you lose 3000 bucks on your WRX to save a few dollars each month, you'll need to drive your FR-S for 50 years to break even.
