Well if it is just cosmetics, the wrx would be cheaper, but I like the wagon more. GC/GM chassis parts are hard to come by, especially the version iv bumpers (f/r) and lip that the wagon has, then springs, the JDM room rails, hood scoop (sti?), and the rear wings are all really rare and expensive.

If you want it to go fast, also the wrx is also the way to go. cheaper for sure.

The wagon looks legit and I'd like to build one because they're rare though.

I love the JDM headlights on the bug-I's. Plus you have a turbo.. I'd say go with the 03 WRX.

Keep in mind this car would be a project car, so thus i would still have my current wagon for driving. I am leaning more towards the OBS since it would be a long and fun project to work on with a result that would be rarely seen and BA. Also you can throw a turbo on the 2.2, yes? Noob question in know.

I almost sold my WRX for a OBS not too long ago haha, now it's probably gonna go for a 240 instead. I say OBS though! Look awesome when done right, fairly cheap to begin with and not seen as much as WRX's.

I'm a bugeye fan, so my vote is for the WRX. But, it all depends on what you're gonna use the car for. Just a DD/looks or something to perform AND look good. Just my 2 cents
