Default AutoWeek on 0-60 times for WRX and a couple other cars.

"Zero to 60 mph came up in 5.82 seconds (WRX). When you look down the list of cars we've tested to see where that fits in, it gives you an idea of just how quick the WRX is: The Porsche Boxster S got 5.74 seconds, the Audi S4 got 5.62 seconds and the Honda S2000 got 5.75 seconds. Granted, the WRX is not as nicely integrated as those much more expensive cars, nor does it carry their cachet, but it can run with them when the light turns green."

Heck, I'm getting consistant 5.9s in the 225R on MTM so this little 3K lb. WRX offers up pretty good numbers for about $20K. I'm pretty well settled on a WRX for my ventures into SCCA rally events.

Make no mistake...I'm talking about a bush warrior, here. TT is in another class altogether so don't be jumping down my throat cuz I happen to really like the WRX.

Default No jumping down throats here...

I need a car w/more capacity right now, and there is nothing I would like more than the WRX Sportswagon! Funny thing is, they don't even include a photo of it in thier product brochure!

That's odd. I'm pretty sure there were a few pictures of it in the brochure I picked up.
