When I bought the GS-R I definitely considered the fact that it was fast and fun enough that I could grow into it. I could have gotten into something a bit faster like a FD or slower like a Miata but the GS-R was just right for me.

But yeah, RJ is partially saying what he's saying because he has a chronic problem with red mist. If you don't have that problem you'll do better. I think you'll probably be fine with your WRX. But again, get that autocrossing time.

Yeah, that was kind of a weak analogy. What's this red mist you speak of?

RJ: I don't know, they just don't light the fire like Subarus and a few other musclish-type cars do. The aesthetics don't do it for me, the lack of traction doesn't do it for me, and honestly I'm generally not into any car older than 2000, aside from a few obvious classics. If I still have this car when the lease runs out and haven't bought something else, I'll sell it just out of principle. I'm assholish like that 8)
