problem with the WRX and I have owned them was if you are as tall as me the car is to small for anyone in the back besides a small child. But they are great cars I would go for the wagon over the sedan if I had to do it again though. ---

I’d rock it. The volvo wagon is just a bit to much old man. I’m not ready for that yet. > [@theblue](#): > > don’t buy an automatic… anything with DSG, SMG etc is what you want… so much more fun to drive even when you’re not manually shifting.

Honestly I’d like to get back into Auto-X for next year. > [@Viper966](#): > > Auto WRX’s are HORRIBLE HORRIBLE cars This is what i am afraid of.

I think that if you can find a C32 to drive you’ll love it. It is the closest thing to an M3 but a little more refined and comfy. You can make them quick as balls in a straight line too. ---
