Hey now...wanna know how I got to take a WRX sedan for a spin?  Katy's MOM
bought one (a woman in her 50s) and she absolutely LOVES it.   Admittedly
this is a woman who back in the day tore a MG TC to the frame and
reassembled it. (Her boyfriend wanted her to learn about the car she was
driving).  So she is progressive.  She actually bought a model that had
the short shift kit on it alreay and some other goodies.  Quite funny
seeing her blasting around in it, but she thanks me every time I see her
for making her take one for a drive when she was car shopping...

So there is the total opposite of what you are saying about WRX owners.

Right...just didn't know the right word for it.  I wonder how much worse
they handle compared to the sedan?  That sedan, stock, has rediculous
handling ability.
