Default New Car (non-Honda)

I still have my civic at the moment but i just bought this wrx for a great price so i thought i would post it up. i still like hondas a lot but this thing was cheeeeeaaaap and runs great.

the civic- nothing special

the wrx-
stock except for an exhaust but hopefully will be getting a drop and some new wheels over the winter

it's almost like that's a standard upgrade from a civic or something.. so many people go from civic to WRX, it's crazy.. i know because i did the same..

too bad finding (correct) wheels for these things isnt as easy as doing it for hondas.. and everything's like twice the price..

how's the cornering compare to you?

-thanks for the replies the suby should be receiving some parts here shortly. clutch already went the first week but i got a new one in and its running great.
-the reason i went to this is mainly for reliablility. i know reliablility is possible with hondas but you cant argue awd is pretty cool too.
- i like the way it handles but my civic has function/form coilovers with integra rates, and a 6 point cage so it outhandles the wrx right now. the wrx also has crappy tires but i can tell it will handle very well with a couple of upgrades

the body on the hatch is so clean- I assume it has seen the body shop because the door handles are painted.

either way, more pics of the hatch
