the wrx has tons of low/midrange, but it dies off on top. it just feels exponentially more powerful in normal driving

Yeah that's why I mentioned my location. Different in different areas, especially the mid-west. How it is cheaper per mile though? Doesn't your fuel efficiency go to complete shit?

Fuel efficiency is only worse by 25-30%. When the price is even just $1 cheaper than the price of 91/93, it's well worth it.

So E85 near you is like $2.00/gal? Damn, very nice.
Oh wait you're in CA, so E85 is like $3.00/gal? lol. (Shell 93 here is $3.10 right now)

I filled up on e85 this morning at 1.96 a gallon. 93 was just over 3.00 I got 22.3 MPG last tank, compared to normally 28 on 93. 1.96/22.3=.08/mile 3.00/28=.10/mile
