Why should we convince you? If i am spending upwards of 25K i better be damn sure im getting what i want and not what other people convinced me to buy.

I must of mislead yal...basically how "great" is the wrx wen compared to other makes and models? Juke's and 02k20aciviccoupe's comment is wat im looking for.
Sorry, i dont trust american auto engineering/quality. Thus my TR name "Importluv." Bad experiance with ford/dodge/gm vehicles.
yal kno subaru's popularity isnt all tat great, i guess its just the south. I guess ill just check the car out myself, and if i like it, ill lease it. If not wrx, then im taking another test drive with the G35. *sarcastically* Yes, i do love their location of the e-brake, which is at the floor like most trucks, and trunk space.
Im just askin u all cuz most of u own subarus.

If I were to get one it would have to be brand new and I can't afford that. I know that some people who have the issues with the tranny are the people who race it and really suck at driving. But in all honesty I wouldn't be able to find one that I could 100% trust and not be worried that it would cost me an arm and a leg to fix. I am not taking away anything from the car itself. I just offered my opinion because of the research I have done myself.
I ran countless times at the track and at auto-xs with mine and never had a problem. And I know many other people in the same position as me.
If you're looking for a used WRX with a little bit of punch over stock, and a strong transmission...I know where you can find one.

I was looking for a stock WRX that I knew wasn't beat to death by someone. I need the warranty from the next car I get, I got rung through with my last car and I don't want to go through it again.
