Other than the price, I don't see why an 07 WRX sedan should trump the 08 WRX sedan. Well, there's also looks, but I think the 08 WRX sedan looks kinda nice with its clean lines.

The 07 WRX Limited had a high MSRP of something like $27K-$28K...then again, I'm sure they're a lot cheaper now. But a 08 WRX sedan shoudln't cost that much more...I'm hoping.

i test drove the sedan when it first hit the dealers cause i had a buddy working at the local suby dealer..... i hated it, my opinion was "suzuki aerio w/ a turbo." its too boxy and dumbed down for me, no feel for the car in the pedals, shifter, or steering wheel. But thats just my opinion

hopefully i'll get a better price than 27K on it...

You could always get it shipped from somewhere else. A local guy here in Colorado waited an extra like 3 weeks to get an STi limited. He knew he wanted a limited and was willing to wait, so if i remember reading correctly he got it flat bedded from one dealership to another from Oregon. And i think he said the cost was very reasonable..... if you want another STi 06/07 body, but none are local, i would look into this option just to see what it might cost. Would prolly be better to go outta your way and wait a little longer to get the vehicle you actually want... could prolly get a couple good breaks on the car / shipping so they can make room for the 08s too!

Be careful power modding a car with an automatic tranny. Sometimes, those things do NOT take more power well. I agree with what some of the rest are saying. Shop around. Pick up a used STi (under warranty 06 or 07 if possible), or maybe consider some other options. A Legacy Spec-B would be pimp. Would it be as fast? No. But it would be a 6-speed turbo luxury car that can hold its own. Those things are pimp.

Gee it is too bad they don't have that 07 WRX limited up here in colorado. I have been looking for one of those. I know a dealer up here in Colorado has a couple brand new 07 STis. Maybe they can do a dealership trade?

Completely agree. LGTs are super pimp.

Also, somebody said earlier how the new sedan WRXs suck. I agree with this as well. When I first saw them in ads, I thought they may be cool. Somebody in the apartment across the street got one though, and Ive found myself near it on the road a couple times. They are butt ugly.
