Yeah.. I'll agree about fit and finish for sure.. There's not much comparison in that department. I've always owned hondas anyways. I did test drove the regular WRX a while ago and the shifter felt like crap.. I'll have to wait though for the Sti test. I still think it's a cool car that has a lot going for it. I don't mind the 4 doors either. As for rallying, did you ever see that guy who did the Pikes Peak hill climb in a Type R?? haha! That was a few years ago.. I think he did pretty well actually!!
