I guess, but they are close enough. Would you rather have a one of a kind TS wagon with a WRX swap, or a WRX wagon and $5,000?

I'd have to go with the factory WRX wagon and an extra $5k. Being unique isn't worth $5k, especially with the GD/GG chassis.

Which is why only swapping in an STi drivetrain really makes sense. Anything else is just more of a waste of money then just purchasing the equivalent car.
