I was just referring to the rice factor. If I was half my age, the tail probably would be the appealing factor

I did test drive a 5 door wrx sti 6spd before getting the g37. It was a very easy car to drive, but not one for me. If we had perfect roads around here, it would be a dream, but chicago's roads are cr@p. The suspension was just way too stiff for being a daily driver in this environment. The interior was a few steps below that of the G. It also lacked many of the bells/whistles/creature comforts of the G. Price tag wise, there was probably a $2K or so difference in terms of pre-ttl price for the loaded sti and my G37S 6mt sedan. The extra 2 gran were well worth it for the added features of the G.
