I loved the STI and was about to buy one, but the new models, the hatch (which I perfer) and the 4 door do not seem like they stayed true to their roots. If they would have kept a similar styling I would have went Subaru all the way. Then I started to really think about it.

STI: Turbo, Trunk, 4 seats (if you want to call the rear ones "seats"), AWD, Aftermarket support, and so on

370: You can always go FI, I have taken my 350 camping twice before without any problems, RWD = FUN, it's a new engine and it's only been out a 2 years and soon everyone will jump on the 370 bandwagon....

I was killing myself thinking did I make the right decision but every time I open the garage and see the car, I fall in love all over again. The other day I was driving home from work and at a red light this car full of hot *** girls all just looked in my direction and just stared at the car. At that point I knew if I was in an STI the only way I would have gotten their attention if it was a car full of calvin klein models. As long as they don't come out with a stock TT Z like the 300 I will keep this Z for a long long time. I also hope by the time I need a 4 seater Subaru will get their act together and then Ill have the best of both worlds!!! But that's just me. You should pick what will make you happy in the end and what goes along with your lifestyle (I'm 24 so my family car will be some kind of AWD beast)

Good luck with your decision!
