Hi cobralu2004,
I think your making the right desision to upgrade - however I wonder if you have considered some of the alternatives to the Imprezza.
May be I'm missing the point but half the joy of a modded car is the fact that it is unique and personal - dare i say it expresses YOUR personality.
The underliying problem with owning an Imprezza is that no matter what you do - you'll know deep down that somewhere someone is driving a virtually identical modded Scooby. Don't get me wrong they are awesome cars, and I would never criticise anyone for getting one. But how about a couple of other options.
Theres the obvious Evolution series form Mitsubishi, how about Honda's offerings.
By all accounts the Integra Type R is a beast. Admittedly it gives way in some areas to the Scoby - 10% down on power and 0-60 times, but its as quick top end and if mpg is a consideration I doubt you could get 35-40mpg from an Imprezza. Plus your are virtually guaranteed individuality even in standard guise.
Just an option. Let us know what you decide.
