Default can't decide!!! again

Well it seems the previous thread I wrote is not working for some reason, so I guess i'll have to ask again. Opinions appreciated. I am looking at a 2003 wrx with a few mods, ecutek, exhaust etc, bit of a stereo, good suspension vs a 02 sti which is standard, the 03 wrx is about 5g cheaper, and its going to be a real stretch to find the funds for the sti, not to mention the insurance costs, is it worth the extra cash for an STI even its an older model

Can u not get them to move on the price at all for the sti.
03 prob nicer looking shape but sti will have better internals,
Bigger brakes, 6 speed, and will probably hold its value a little better.

saying that spend little less and u have slightly newer car which u will modifi anyway. just wont have the little extras like brembos.

well you can easily do a peanut eye conversion.

but the bug eye looks hot with a few tasteful exterior mods.
