Yep, the main factor in the purchase decision was my wife. 
I will definitely miss my WRX however, just different types of cars but both great.

i would get rid of my AWD in a second if they didnt have rallycrosses or dirt roads to play on. Its nice in the rain though, since my miata drifts at any turn more than 30mph
330's are cool, whats the diff between 330 and M3? same engine or what?

AFAIK, 330i = 3.0L and M3 = 3.2L (a lot more powerful). ZHP= Performance package which has most of the M3 E46 upgrades w/o LSD.
I was trying to give thumbs up and peace to 2 WRXs today but they just seem to ignore me since I'm in a non-Rex.

Ok, for all the ppl asking for EVO dark side goodness.
Here's my friend's (sorta jealous) new 09 EVO X.
All I'll say is wow, hell of a car. I just hope it's more reliable than the older EVO 8/9 though.

No need to be jealous of your friend's dustbuster.
