    I only drove my personal car 3 days a month, so right now I don’t have anything.

    Woman has her car and I’ll be replacing that probably next year, maybe the following.

    Funny....I asked myself same question but ended up ordering a PRO Manual myself. I love Speed and the WRX I think would be fun, however for now the truck will be more "practical"....can always get a used sports car later

    I was having the same dilema. I traded my BRZ for an auto Pro—I thought I wanted to get back to a sporty car. I went out and test drove 2 STIs (Type RA and series.white). The RA was used and very disappointing—maybe it wasn’t treated right. The series.white was much better. The car was quick and nimble. It seemed like it would be a fun daily driver. That said, the STI feels cheap (like an Impreza with a lot of red accents). The Pro feels much more substantial, like a sturdier, better made vehicle. I was going to trade the truck, but couldn’t...it felt like I was downgrading. I do like the STI, but not instead of the Taco (and I barely use the truck). I might buy a next generation STI after I am done paying the truck.

    I’d also like an STI. Hopefully they don’t do a hybrid version some have reported and don’t fuck up the car. 400 hp would be good
