I have owned G35 Sedan, drove and almost bought a Legacy GT, brother has a WRX and driven it allot..

I ended up with an Audi S4... it is expensive to repair but I have seen some nice ones for sale around $12K for a 01 or 02. AWD, Twin Turbo V6, 6 speed manual.. just chip gives it 320HP

Between the STI and EVO.. the new STI limited looses the stadium seating wing on the back and has leather seats, seem pretty nice but the front end does look like ASS and Subie knows it and is changing it for 08 so it would be a gamble for resale..

are they really?

christ, this company needs to get some continuity. BMW for instance has changed considerably throughout it's vehicle histroy but every bimmer just...has that BMW look. Subaru has changed 4 times(counting this new 08 style) in only 5 years.

You leaving it stock? STi

You wanna make big powere? Evo

Actually, why don't you just enjoy your paid off car and pocket some money for a year or so? Then you can pick up an X when they're released.

+12345 on all of these comments.

If you're leaving the cars stock.. STi's tend to be more comfortable to people. If you're going to modd the cars and make 420+... the EVO will get you there much faster and the potential is ridiculous.

Other than that... a paid off car is the nicest one to own.

Yea I just got one, I really love it. You may also be interested in a S2000. That is what i traded in for my G35. Great car car but a little to small for me for a daily driver.
