>I sold my SVT and have been driving a Subaru WRX for 3 weeks. I highly recommend it.<

There's one REAL problem with the WRX, a problem that's MUCH more serious than all the little bug-a-boos of the Contour (I haven't experienced any of the reported serious problem in my 36K of Contour ownership).

Sorry, but to these Euro-trained eyes, the WRX is a classically styled Subaru. It is butt-ugly (but well built).
