Jesus christ. Does the Grand Cherokee have a hatchback? Yes it fucking does, so stop playing difficult. WRX wagons are bigger than normal sedans, therefore, more 'roomy'. The new 08 sti is $35k?

Apples to oranges.
Would we compare a Honda Civic hatch to a 2WD SUV just because they are both 2WD and have rear hatches instead of trunks?
And an Imprezza wagon is no larger in dimension aside from interior dimensions than a sedan. Maybe 50lbs heavier.

And I just said how the Grand Cherokee could beat that thing in a race.

Drag race, we're talking engine power here.
Your beloved SRT8 would BARELY edge out a '06 STi in the 1/4 mile.

no, actually it doesnt have a 'hatchback.' it has a hatch, yes, but that does not make it a hatchback. its an suv and a pretty damn impractical one at that. i dont understand the current obsession with cramming stupidly large engines in even bigger cars that cant do anything well except go in a straight line and inflate the ego of those who drive them. i understand how some people may need the extra room that an suv provides, or need the power for towing heavy stuff, but why try and make a performance vehicle out of something that is inherently not going to handle well, no matter what you do to it? oh, and the 08 sti isnt out yet, so no, you havent seen it. the new wrx is however, and the power stayed the same from the factory, although its using the legacy gt engine now, which with an ecu reflash basically gives you about 25-30 more horsepower without even doing any engine work to it. they also decreased the weight by about 50 pounds for the sedan, and almost 200 for the hatch, which is pretty impressive in an era where every new rendition of a car gets bigger and heavier than its predecessor.
