I leaning toward an 06' WRX or STI becasue I have a DP and COBB sways that will fit collecting dust in my garage.... and they are reasonably priced. But I also like the 09' 5 doors for practicality and under the radar style.
Well, on the Limiteds, what was the tune? Was is a Cobb stage 2 flash? Or a bigger tune? If it is the Cobb flash I really don't think you have anything to worry about. The STi is a pretty stout car and unless the guy was an idiot and had an intake and a bad tune I bet you are fine.

Also, keep in mind that those sways you have won't find a WRX and an STi, the STi sways are a little different than the WRX ones (I think the STi ones are a little longer...) Likewise, I bet you know this, but you can't just slap a downpipe on and call it good, you need a tune...that was in reference to the DP you have...
