Let's not forget that its front wheels do some funky dance, too.

In all seriousness, I test drove a WRX, and it certainly should be compared to the Z, Genny, Camaro, Mustang, etc.
If the non-wagon STi came out sooner I would probably be driving that right now! I am really excited to see what they do with the next generation.

The WRX is only close to the STI in a straight line

The WRX has better gearing (5-speed vs. 6-speed) for bragging right numbers (0-60 & 1/4 mile)

On a track with turns the STI wipes the flow with the WRX.

There are a lot more differences between the regular WRX and STI than most seem to think.

The STI's transmission a lone is almost reason enough to pay the extra coin.
