daily driver? weekend warrior? brand new? if it is ...seems like they ordered one with options and couldn't sell it. (if new) make sure that the car has been "checked" cuz i notice 03's sitting on a dealers lot(with same gas in tank) can have adverse effects. personally i love the 01 rs front end best. see if u can steal the 03... thats my advice- unless $ is a real big issue...

Get the WRX.

If you buy a WRX you won't be sitting around saying "Man! I shoulda bought the RS. What was I thinking?" If you 're gonna spend you're hard earned money, at least get what you want (within reason, of course). If the WRX is not affordable for you, then RS is the way to go.

A new WRX can be had for around $22k. Check out carsdirect.com. I'm not affiliated with them in any way, I just bought mine through them.

If you drive like a grandma don't get the wrx. Don't kid yourself about getting an aftermarket turbo on your rs either though... and you'll kiss your warranty goodbye.

If you obey all posted speed laws, you'll enjoy the rs!
