Was in Waldorf MD over the weekend. So I see this WRX at a light. I noticed the "women" driving was not to shy on the gas. I figured I would sneak up behind her and at green see If My SVT had the guts. let me tell you iT didn't and She punished me severely. There was nothing I could do to even gain anything on her. she just kept pulling and pulling away. Any body else have any run-ins with the lovely WRX???? And when Is ford gonna wake up and smell the competition????
wat up Matt??? keep that SVT glossy!!!!

Yep, the WRX is not to be messed with by us meager SVT drivers...they have some serious pull.

WRX is awesome, but not that awesome.
There are rumors of an SVT / WRX meeting at SZ01. If you search you'll find details.
I'd buy one, I'm impressed with all qualities of the car.

I'm very surprised .. I've only seen one CSVT live (ever since I came across this site and started looking for 'em), and I've seen at least 30 different WRXs in the past 2 months. They're definitely more popular ...

Mark Yes, that's when Brad Noon blew his engine... S/C 2.5L. I must disagree on the overall verdict... cut the price by $4K, and I may change my mind. The lack of amenities and handling undermine its acceleration.

Wait until it rains or snows and they want to race your Mustang, you'll be singing a different tune.
