drove a near new WRX wagon...
No offense to those who have WRXes, but I was not impressed. Turbo lag is substantial, and even when the turbo does spool up, the car does not feel like it can do 0-60 in 5.8 seconds. And the motor is not nearly as smooth as our 6 cylinder SVX motors. Handling is good, but I don't think its any better than my SVX. In fact, I'd say it doesn't handle as well. That might be in part because of the 17" rims and stiffer springs on my SVX though.
