Now they are doing the same thing to the Twins.
Other than that all of your points are completely valid and real even though people don't want to hear it.

Fair enough. I thought I had read that whole separation of the Impreza and wrx was more a nameplate/marketing thing then an actual divorce chassis wise. Which is why with the last generation and now the new ones coming we got the Impreza ~ 2 yrs before the WRX and then ~ 3 yrs for the sti. All good though.
