Ive heard a few things about the STi clutches, they arent the greatest reviews, but i dont own one, ill let the owners chime in.. My wrx however, is the best daily ive ever owned, 3 years, no major problems to speak of, and its been DAMN reliable.. i never had a complaint in traffic, but i hate it period... in comparison however, my supra sucks in traffic, heavy duty clutches dont help the matter

all in all, the wrx has been the best car ive owned reliabilty and durability, and its the most daily driveable option in my eyes... besides, the evo will keep someone breathing down your neck about mods...

i would say do it, a whole lot of car for good money
