Alright, your WRX might have more HP in the end, but when it comes to Torque, STi's are the way to go. Plus, dont forget about our Brembo brakes, 6 speed trans, DCCD Center Diff, Intercooler sprayer, HID's with adjustment switch, and sweet interior yo....

But.....In my old WRX defense. My WRX came with a moon roof, heated seats, and a back seat pass threw. Things I wish my STi came with..
dunno about a WRX, but my little GC might 'not' have a chin@man's chance against your STi.

2200 lb chassy, less drivetrain loss, intercooler sprayer, no PS and AC (), no trunk monkey, and manual windows. yeeaahh buddy, lightweight!! lightweight!!

Thanks guys. I am still looking. I am opening my search to WRXs too.

I am still firm on what I want to spend, less would be good too. Something that is in decent shape and not to beaten up.

Update!

Well guys, I bought a car (waiting on the documents to be mailed). It is a 2001 CORVETTE Coupe. I wanted a back seat, but the deal was toooooo damn good for me to pass up. I am a corvette guy anyways, but I do have mad love for the WRX!!!

j/k. corvettes are the shizzle too. at least you stuck with what you wanted. i'd buy a corvette if I had the money, but the GC is dear to my heart.

Like the Easterners always say, balance is key, power is nothing without control... Like the westerners always say, theres no replacement for displacement. Ahh screw it, power to rate ratio ftw
