Please do tell why you downgraded. We understand if it is mileage issue, mechanical problems.. etc. but I prefer the WRX !

Welcome to the Scion world! I wouldn't consider it a downgrade, I personally wouldn't want to be seen in a station wagon either....

Have any of u seen the interior of a WRX...its the most depressing interior ever! unless u strip it down to bare metal and a bucket seat the interior is bla!! tC>WRX Interior all day. As far as performance it is a downgrade but overall tC is a better car mechanically and visually.

How do you consider the WRX interior to be depressing? Also Subaru has a better mechanical history then the tC, it's true. Interested in why the downgrade? Also it's funny to see people get mad when they lose to a "station wagon."

I know you guys keep comparing performance stock to stock, but the tC really does have a lot of potential. You guys just think the only thing you can possibly do is put a $3000 set of wheels on it and slam it so low you cant even drive it.

Subaru is an expensive car to make faster than the normal stage 2 car. Plus she had an older 02-03. With only the 2.0 engine and glass box trans, the tC may have been an upgrade. Not to mention mpg. Maybe if it was an 06-07 I'd call it a downgrade. Wagon mafia ftw, and good luck with the tC.
