NEW Pics, New Car vs Old Car
Hello all, im new to the site. Just traded in my 02 WRX for a TW 07 SI. Needed a car that was commuting friendly but still fun to drive. Let me know what you think!

Good move! I've always liked the WRX as a rally car, but as a daily driver, it's a bit of overkill. Enjoy!!!

I bought my Si as a dd. I was going to get an Infiniti G37, but with gas prices and the lousy fuel economy, I felt the Si was the best value for the buck. Good looks, good fuel economy, relatively quick. Meanwhile, my G35 sits forlornly, craving some attention.

Yeah and the extra 3 quickly turns into an extra 5 if you want some options on the wrx

wrx wanst good on gas and not comfortable to drive as much as I do. I think the newer wrx is getting better on gas and comfort but cant go wrong with the si. Plus resale of si > wrx. The only thing im missing is awd

really?? wow didn't know that. I guess it's because Subaru changes the Wrx's aesthetics like every 2 years. the new WRx hatch is just though. Good move and enjoy the 8200 rpm!!
