05 or 06 WRX?
My friend is looking for a WRX hatchback. I used to think that the 06 and 07 models looked not that great, but they have really grown on me where I'd actually prefer them over the 04-05's.
My quick question is, besides the engine size change (2.0 vs 2.5) bigger wheels and better brakes, is there anything else that gives the 06+ an advantage over the 05's?(performance and reliability wise) Is the transmission, engine, interior components any better (build and function) on the 06's?
Thank you.

Hands Down!
06 all the way. 2.5 liter engine instead of 2 liter engine. 17" rims and tires instead of 16" and larger beake disc and better calipers!
