Hmmm...didn't the WRX come as a coupe before '02? Do you think the extra two doors make it less attractive?

There wasn't a WRX in America prior to 2002. There was a two door impreza and the RS.

Not in the US. From 96 (or so) through 00, the WRX was sold in the 2-door RS body style in other countries.

Not really. The coupe RS was the same size as the sedan, just with out the rear doors. The thing that was the most unattractive with the sedan RS was the spoiler it came with. It didn't match the car as much as the coupe spoiler.

I f**kin hate Hondas. Let's see, an AWD, Turboed, Inter-cooled, Flat-4 or a normal less than marginal FWD inline 4 that's like every other Japanese import, with exception of a couple Mitsu's. I think it's a pretty obvious choice.

Don't forget a modded Honda is a cop magnet, (not to mention annoying) most don't give a wingless sedan a second look.

Do you ride a short bus? You come to a Subaru forum and expect it's members to like a honda better? The reason they clicked that is because they are smart enough to see that your thread is flamebait and meant to incite others who don't share your opinion.

I vote option 5, troll.

+1 on Voting Troll!

Jeff, all you seem to be doing is ****-ysing every and any opinion written here... You take the negative personally and you glance right over the positive... Face it... I'm not gonna spend 40 bucks on a foreman grille and admit that a 300 dollar juiceman is better... People protect their investments, and the decisions they have made are and ALWAYS will be biased... There is no such thing as NO bias... Grow up. Bias is simply weight on either side... through your life you acquire different "knowledge" or preferences... These experiences and the people around you will ALWAYS to an indirect degree influence the decisions you make along with the things you like/dislike... you didnt just pop out of a womb and were shown a picture of an RSX or WRX and asked to choose... you have SOME sort of bias... stop crying.

And this forum happens to fu**ing rock, so please, take the sh*t talking elsewhere...I-club is full of technical information and thousands of members willing to wholeheartedly put aside time from their lives to diagnose problems, assist in decision making, and offer nearly anything someone needs. Stop looking at things from the backside... nobodys butthole is pretty, appreciate the "good" about it

And about the cars... I personally like low, sporty coupes such as the RSX, but... I voted WRX... because I nearly wet my pants when a monster of a sedan comes rumbling past me... with a sexy boxer beat and sounds that would make baby jesus sing halleluja... Sure beats a little coupe passing by you with a BUZZing sound...

WRX all the way! (and F*** yeah, thats a biased decision, coming from a Stang owner...)
