I like it way better than my mystique for obvious reasons: 1. More power! 2. 5- speed 3. More power! The ride is pretty smooth, compared to my dropped mystique. It has a little more body roll than I was used to with the H&R springs. The motor is really quiet at normal speeds, but there's more wind/other cars noise getting into the cabin compared to my mystique i think. Overall, I'm impressed so far, now I wanna expereince that japan-built reliablility!

Wow That is nice I had never seen one without the words " objects in this mirror are closer then they appear" over it! Hey I drive a SVT!
But seriously a damn nice choice, I also felt they had a bit much body roll and the susp upgrade was $1800. probably do with some springs and struts! Enjoy again nice car.

Hey that's a pretty nice car you have there. Wait a second is that really a WRX or is is just a toyota echo with the WRX body conversion kit. Geez it's so hard to tell with the rear tail lights almost being exact. As well as the rear being so high up geez that must be a toyota echo or im seeing some werid stuff. You even took the time to change all of the decals and logos on the car. I think that's some pretty nice work you have done. But dont you think it would of been better to buy a contour SVT instead of wasting your money on a toyota ECHO.

maybe good enough to change my mind Alot better????? Still pretty ugly really and they said the Contour was ugly. I think the SVT is one of the better looking cars around, maybe i'm partial cause I own one, no I cant say that i'd say it even if I didn't own one.
