{OT} Impressions of the WRX

[nealtovsen@yahoo.com (Neal Tovsen)]

You have a point there. My RS (and the new WRX) have crappy paint. While the
WRX interior is much better than my RS, it still sucks compared to a VW.

...but a WRX will SMOKE any factory VW (yes, inc. Rallye Golfs) ever made in
a straight line, in a turn, on road, or off...

...and it's about the same price as a VR6 GTI...

You have to trade something!
