I bought my rex cuz it was time for something new, and actually I had been dead set on getting a GTP ever since my brother got one in 2000, and that desire was only further fueled by mooks conquest with his.
But then i started looking at other options and found out I could afford a WRX. The thought a turbo and awd was pretty appealing, plus ive always loved how they sound w/ an exhaust, and im a big wrc fan and have always cheered on the subies.
Also at the TIME, there wernt a whole lot of subies running around here, and I saw grand prixs on every corner, so I wanted something that not everyone had. Now however, I cant go a single day w/out waving to 2 or 3 other subies.
But those were my reasons at the time, and i certainly dont regret my choice one bit
