Because to pay an extra 9k for 40 more horses and less mpg doesn't seem right.

If hitting the track every weekend is your forte, the STi is definitely worth it. To the average joe might be overkill.

because everyone has their own personal reasons for buying cars and just because your opinion on a car is one thing doesnt mean everyone else see's what you see in vehicles.

Only $7k..was hoping for more but they got my payments so low that it wouldn't have made a huge difference.

Hey I also traded in my tc for the 2011 wrx and I'm loving every minute of it. I'm finding it really difficult taking it easy for the first 1000 miles as suggested!
06sciontc if I could afford the STI I would have got that instead.
