Sure as a daily it's too much of a gas hog in my opinion, but as a rally or track weapon it's quite well prepared.

On phone I am. Therefore, if mistakes I make, Frank Oz blame you should.
i doubt the new sti is as fast around a track as the mustang gt. the last one wasnt. this really does have the potential to be the first wrx that i would like based on what i have read but the fact that it has an aging drivetrain and is pretty ugly even in real life imo kinda bums me out.
