Question Trading Lightning for WRX?

Love the Lightning but I've had three since 1999 and have been thinking about getting something a little more practical. Anyone here trade for a WRX? If so, impressions?

Traded mine for an 03 Cobra. That was a good way to go, I still got the supercharger wine. I wouldn't go to a WRX because I'm sure the Lightning feels and is way faster. I have been in a WRX and driven one and you really have to work hard to get the thing going fast. Just my .02.

Thumbs down

WRX's are trendy!!!!!!!!! Don't do it. Those cars will never be worth anything there are way to many around. The local dealership in town has 25+. Ridiculous. Keep the lightning buy a $500-1000 1980's 4x4 winter beater. -Mat-
