Default Should I?

obviously we'd say yeah =D


but imo, the Z looks much nicer than the WRX, so that holds a lot more appeal to me.

The Subies are cool little rides, very quick....but the Z is quick and a work of art. The Z is also more fun to drive - less body roll, engine sounds cooler, etc. Plus owning a 2seater is just awesome. Whatever you do good luck.

Not too many cars under $35,000 can match the Z in looks, performance, and sex appeal. The Z's got it all...

I actually sell Subies, and while the WRX is a great all around car, the looks, ergonomics, and the power is severley lacking. The all wheel drive is great especially if you are in an area of the US that actually sees a winter. I have been told that with blizzaks all around and 2nd gear starts you can achieve descent winter driveability. so thats that. But on the track there's not much that can hold a candle to the Z. Unless of course you're talking about a GT-R, or perhaps a viper, or something among those ranks. I personally believe that for the money there is nothing better than the Z. Under 30 thou for a base, 287rwhp, and only 3200 lbs. compare those #'s to anything out there and you'll be hard pressed to beat it. The car could perhaps use some interior touches, but I personnally got the car because of its heritage and performance, if I wanted something fancier I could have gotten the prissyg35, but it doesn't stack up the same-- loses 25 hp and weighs 250+ more lbs. The car is also a chick magnet, they'll drop their wet panties in your lap just for a ride. For me personally the Z was the best thing I have ever spent my money on, no doubt about it. GET THE Z!!

Now I know why the Z comes with VDC...
In case the driver's abilities are impaired doing-- ahumm--- something else while driving...
