honestly, if we got the B4 or the s401 i would take that over the WRX STi. I love the WRX STi, but the S401 is sweet!!!!

Yeah, I would say around $35K, but when you compare it to the price of an M5 ($70K+)..the price looks good. Sure, its not the same..but half price is nice too!

I forget the projected MSRP..but even if it was $45K..its still $25K cheaper than a sports sedan that is comparable...

and a vette z06 is cheaper than the new viper, but they're still way out of my league, as would be the s401

I like the M5, the only problem is here in the midwest, during the winter the M5 might as well be a sports car. To get the performance, AWD, and about $25k cheaper price the B4 STi would be a damn nice option to have here in the US.
