buuuut STI can fit a baby seat... which means i'd actually get to drive it a lot more.. right now im forced to do must commuting in the wifes honda fit. booooring.
i dont like that the STI is still using that ancient engine.. but it is way faster. and and has a upsides.. big brakes, center diff you can control.
id probably take a WRX due to its new motor.. but the biggest downside to the WRX is smaller brakes, open diffs front and rear, and a viscous coupling center diff... i dont know if i can bring myself to buying one when i know the STI exists.
considering this is a brz forum, im sure i know what everyones going to say.. just thinking out loud i guess..
nice car though. didnt think theyd look that nice in grey

Are those downsides really relevant on the WRX though?
How often are you going to change the diff bias?
Are you going to track your car hard enough that you need the sti brakes?
If it's going to be a DD (sounds that way), go with the WRX... unless of course you just want an sti.
That being said... a baby seat fits fine in the BRZ as long as you have the passenger seat all the way forward if it's rear facing.
Once it's forward facing, you have tons of room.
I went from BRZ to WRX... back to BRZ...
