Your kind is not welcome here.
But really , buy whatever you want. No one here has any ideas what your needs and interests or likes and dislikes are. Try reading around and you'll see why the tC is a great car.
Personally, I'd get the tC. Shocking I know.

2.5RS starts over $18k. tC starts over $16k. Not close enough for me. As for what you want ... I don't know. Depends on what you need. One big difference with the 2.5RS is that it's AWD. So... good in bad weather.
Other than that... it's REALLY just what YOU want to have or need. And which you like better.

If you were to get a Subaru I would shoot for the WRX Impreza. The tC buddy. What will you feel satisfied in? I would be more satisfied in a tC. That's for sure. I don't currently own one, but it's my pick.

Well i would get the TC because im partial to the styling of it. I wouldnt waist my money on a striped down WRX w/o the Turbo Charged engine....all that weight..plus all wheel drive and not the juice to propel it properly.

I'm almost up for a new car soon (might be giving the xA to my little sister). My mom hinted to a tC, but a Subaru Impreza 2.5RS Wagon would be nice. AWD > FWD. Though, I'll probably end up with a 2006 Civic Si (my older sister works for Honda). Limited slip, 200hp...mmmmm.

You can get a Saab 9-2x right now with the GM discount for about 19k. I think that's the Aero and the 9-2x's are BUILT by subaru. They are a wrx rebadged as a saab. the exterior is different, and that's about it. Look it up. So essentially you're getting a WRX for 19k. Every single part on that car is from a wrx. They also have upgrades from the WRX.
ok here's a few things that i found out...
* Aero gets the STi steering rack
* both models get firmer springs and softer dampers over the wrx
* 10mm shorter bump stops
* stiffer front control-arm bushings
* 1.8mm toe-in (front)
just do a little research. the tC is great, but look into other cars as well. most here will tell you to get the tC, but i would so get the 9-2x if i were looking for a car right now.

WRX Tranny Sucks! Had an 03. Traded it in for an 05 STI. Fast- Way fast and way expensive! MPG sucks and insurance is high. Now I'm rolling an 06 TC and I'm content. Its not crazy fast but it is about $300 a month cheaper and it has a sunroof.

Last time I checked Brian the Saab 9-2x is actually a rebadged 2.5 Impreza, which "starts" $23,685....In fact the Saab 9-2x Aero model is the rebadged WRX that actually "starts" at $27,645.
