I think I've outgrown my Subie :(
The handling and steering is much more precise if thats what you meant however

Cheaper doesn't mean practical. Not everyone has the luxury of having 2-3 parking spaces for cars.

I dont want a lame *** BMW. It's just not me. When I discover the fact that I like to put my ***** inside other men's anuses, maybe then I'll consider one.

so your getting a BMW?? j/k
I put coilovers on my MY06 TR and it made a huge difference. I was at the point of driving by the dealerships to check stuff out, and once I got the suspension hooked up, not anymore.
I do know what you mean though. Its nice to go for a drive and turn the music off and hear nothing, but at the same time, its also nice to hear 2.5l's of boxer engine humming also.

I'd have to agree with you. After putting on my set of coilovers, it totally changed the dynamics of the car. It made it more fun to drive.

Car Info: 2016 Acura RDX ... meh. Um, nice subwoofer?
The Mazdaspeed3 GT has a nicer than WRX interior, more than WRX power (feels significantly more really, esp with torque from my test drive). Its a small and quiet car.... all stock and SMOG LEGAL. None of those worries any more. Nice handling, no clunk (supposedly better latG's than a WRX). I just don't have time to deal with a modified car anymore, and a new house and kid makes something expensive out ofthe question.
The MPG ain't 40, but I don't drive all that much. No doubt this car would be fun at Thunderhill. Third gear is love.

used RS6?
My brother got an awesome deal on a used Audi RS6. Perfect condition, low miles. It's amenities and comfort are on par with most luxury sedans. If the 450 hp isn't enough for you, 500 is easily attainable with a swap of engine and tranny chips. Want, want more than 500? Do the old Exhaust, turbo, fuel delivery, chip mod and...oh come on who needs more than 500?
