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

Not at all crazy, STIs are special cars and they're still performance bargains compared to the competition, IMO. My primary motivation was to get back to a RWD, NA sports car that has room for a dog in back. Besides the BRZ, there's hardly anything new out there that qualifies. I kind fell out of love with the turbo and the AWD platform. I have a history of doing things like that, 15 yrs ago I had to buy an S2000 to realize I don't like convertibles.
