For those of you who have driven both the new model 2.5RS (02 or 03) and the WRX can you give me your impressions of how the two cars are alike or not alike?

I would love to get a WRX but the 2.5RS may be more practical as far as expense and insurance goes. I am wanting to hear if the 2.RS is still really fun to drive and still pretty powerful. Any opinions you have on the two cars and how they relate to each other in the "fun" factor is appreciated.

Thanks,
Kenny

P.S. I should finally have time to test drive both this Saturday.
