For me, I feel like the subaru is just a better representation of the car. First off, the motor is primarily their design as is a bunch of other mechanical bits on the car. While im not retracting away from toyotas efforts and awesome involvement with the car, I feel like, at heart, the car is really a subaru...but based upon its development history branching from classic toyotas it seems as though its soul is a toyota. I own 2 new scions as daily drivers right now. Theyre good cars but they FEEL so cheap. They feel expendable. I have a feeling the overall feel of being in the subaru will be a bit different.

Not hating scion cause theyre a great company. Obviously theyre the same car but there are differences between the two. Other people can agree, some cars from some manufactures have a special feel to them. One different from other cars though they may be similar. Seeing as how im parting with my built track/drift s14 that ive had for over 5 years as well as my daily tc, I just wanna buy what drives and FEELS like a sports car....not an economical coupe like my current scion.

That being said, unless the price gap is vast, ill be going with the subaru
Took the words right outa my mouth!! I don't want to get into my sick looking sports car and see all this cheap knobs taken from the TC!

Coming from a civic Si 06 the dash has got to look hot... Your inside the car driving so it's what you'll be seeing the most often!
