"and do not like the look of the current batch as I find they look a bit soft"??? Why buy an old car that will just start breaking on you? Buy an MY12 Sedan and make it look tough... STI wing, nice suspention and some decent rims, plus you get your new car warrenty. I don't understand why everybody is so anti 2.5L... I drove mine like it was stolen for 2 years.. red line everywhere, track days, 6k launches... never had a problem.

Big difference between MY05 STi and a MY12 STi, $30k(ish) and nearly $70k.

Also consider a Liberty GT - as long as it's a "Tuned by Sti" or Spec B to get a 6 speed and the tougher diff.
