Plus, WRX drivers are in general bigger douchebags than SRT-4 drivers these days anyway. Now that there are thousands of cheap WRXs on the used car market, they're bought up by every GT4 playing high school flatbrimmer brodawg that wants an accessory to go with his DC shoes and Monster energy drink who takes his sweet rally car out to the street races and leaves it upside down or taco'd into a light pole.
The worst part about it is all of us WRX owners pay for their stupidity through increased insurance rates. That was part of the reason in doing the sti swap into the wrx, was to save on insurance. My last sti I owned, the insurance was through the roof. And I have a clean driving record.
