Wink WRX? Ummm . . . yeah, I think so!

Back when I was lurking on the I-club board, it was pretty much filled up with the same sentiments about the WRX as I'm seeing here on this site: "Looks like a Neon", "not agressive enough", "looks like a corolla", "I like the old one better", "it's nothin' special", and so on.
I can't argue style with you - you either like it or you don't - but as for the rest of it, I gotta say "I DON'T GET IT".
Reading through the literature - mechanically speaking - it sounds like a baby SVX! Let's see: 227 HP turbo engine, AWD, MANUAL TRANNY, stiffened-up body structure . . . NO WAIT - it's sounding even better! And people are yawning???
I'll say it again, I won't be trading my SVX in for one - but I WILL get one, sooner or later.
