So in a year or two I might consider either swapping in the EJ207 from an STi7 or selling the car for a '93 MR2 non-turbo and do the JDM GENIII MR2 swap (which would cost me 10,000 including the car, and hold 300rwhp on turbo, 400rwhp on fuel and 500+ rwhp on internals compared to like 280 on the stock TD04 on the WRX and 350 or so for stock internals on the rex)
I mean, this is a great car. With 4 comfortable seats I was sold in buying this car,
but maybe people are going past all the hype of "the wrX can run 12's with 3 mods!" and realizing that while this care is certainly good all around, its performance and potential can be matched and exceeded by older, much cheaper cars such as the 240sx and MR2 (provided you have the mechanical and technical know-how)
I dunno, just IMHO.
