Sounds like a reasonable appraisal, I was a little surprised to see that
reference.

Well, the salesman tossed me the keys and said "take a spin". I didn't take
him literally, but I put the car through its paces. I was immediately in
love. When he told me the price, I almost signed the papers on the spot.
That car makes my '92 SER feel like a minivan on barbituates. Even with my
350+ lb friend in the car, it pulls better than mine. It handles better too.
I went around some turns at what would be "tire squeal" speed for mine. It
just ate 'em up and asked for more. Even today, almost a month later, it is
hard to resist calling the dealer and buying one right now. Lucky for me, my
mom bought the one I test drove, so I can go drive hers. :)

I don't know, I didn't look at the WRX much. It is all about color for me, I
personally love the fishnet fabric. I have never felt a fabric that does as
good a job of keeping you planted during spirited driving. The stuff just
grips your clothes.
