yeah, you make a good point. the reason to own an impreza, of any kind, is mainly for how it drives. best handling all around, stock or modified....in my opinion anyways. I do have to say though, I do like the 02-03 ones with Morrettes (dual projector headlights) and some body kits. Makes the car look very bulky and muscular, kinda cool. Still not quite my style, but cool nevertheless.
