Yeah, it's just a WRX loaded up with a bunch of luxury shit.
I'd rather have the WRX. :dunno:

:bandwagon:

The WRX is a fun car but it is far from everything people make it out to be. I would rather have the Saab over the WRX by a long shot because for the cost of the WRX I would expect more comfort from it.

And don't give me that ever so stupid argument of "but its a rally based car" because what you get from the dealer and what is in the rally races is two completely different cars....like night and day differences.

considering that it's basically the same car as the WRX...and it comes with more doodads for less money, i'd take the 92X

Performance takes precedent over luxury for me, I'd rather have the more stripped down WRX. It would probably feel like a Lincoln Towncar compared to my car, I've never been in something with worse NVH, it was nice and quiet when I got it though. :rick:

I know about the rally cars, there isn't a whole lot that goes from rally racecar to production.

If you could get it for $17K, damn I'd do it. I like the styling of the 9-2X better anyway, plus they're not as common.

Cheaper?
I'd take it if it's cheaper.

Well you are young yet

One day you will realize that a daily driver should not be your race car and vice versa. This is part of the reason I now leave my daily vehicles stock and comfortable while my toys are strictly for fun and purpose built and driven only in their respective environments.
