The cost difference is so marginal though, that it isn't really even a factor; unless you're wanting a fully loaded decked out WRX, in which case, some people are paying like 33k for... which is just absurd to me.

Better get the CVT or AT

We've got both here at the shop and honestly they are completely different cars. It would be a tough sell to have to chose one over the other depending on my requirements.
