I can't help you with a place for a test drive, but I can say that you have great taste. I have wanted the Subura WRX STI for a while. I actually almost bought one a few months ago. I test drive one from a private seller. It was about a year old. Once my wife realized it had 300 horse power and she then saw how I planed to drive it, that car was OUT! I should have softened her up to the idea of the car before I hit 0 to 60 in 4.4 seconds getting onto the 10 freeway and when I tried to find the top speed, which I never found. I chickened out at 125mph and let off the pedal. We eventually bought a different car, which the wife says was a compromise. We bought a Kia Spectra. I don't see the compromise there. I was certain that when we went down to the dealership they were going to require a testical donation or something. I figured no guy with a "pair" would drive one of those things, but I guess you have to lower the man pride in this terrible economy. Eventually I will get the car, but it is going to take some major persuasion skills with the wife and a lot more money before that happens. Good luck with the car search. You are going to love the WRX.
but you have a kick ass Jeep....
I drove one the other day for the 1st time. It was a WRX and it was fun. I can only imagine how the STI feels. 300 ponies is nice on the street
i dunno man, i didnt like the STi very much. Didnt feel i was getting enough for what i was paying for. Lag city. The evo was waaay worse on lag. Im thinkin of picken up a 996 turbo 01-04. Theres a car you can take to the track.

Maybe a good hybrid turbo or a two stage turbo setup would be good. Or better yet, a lysholm twin screw style supercharger!yeah, the Boost lag on it sucks. I though it wouldnt be so bad what with it having a small turbo and all...
