Hug the road better? Not sure if the GSX pulls the same skidpad numbers as the WRX....also the positioning of the weight is what really matters. A 4000 lb ford truck with a lift kit is obviously going to have slightly "worse" handling characteristics as opposed to a 4000 lb Misti 3000GT VR4. I'm sure you already knew this though.

I think the WRX's have mucho body-roll from the factory as opposed to a GSX...probably why you thought the gsx was more stable.
