STi's a much better platform - better motor, bigger turbo, stronger gearbox, better brakes, etc, etc...

Yep, if i had the money at the time i would have gone the STi.

not getting another liberty, prefer the sporty car from the luxury, have a gen3 atm and its a good rig but tbh i dont like it, too heavy and its a bit of a chore to drive

depending on the funds at the time but i think i will try to get an STI ... most of the bits on my wish list the STI already has anyway and if i compare a standard WRX with my mods list added to a stock STI its almost the same but the STI is well cheaper

cant say i like those blue seats tho lol

There's a few personal imports and conversions. When they come up for sale you definetly aren't getting the bang for buck such as the STI mentioned earlier.
