Hello from Kuwait
Hey guys (girls), new here, posting from Kuwait currently. on my second tour...coming home in December (they say...).
Previously owned:
del Sol Si (d16 vtec)
VW 1.8t GTi
1991 Prelude 2.0 non-vtec
currently own...
CBR1000RR...the machine I turn to for fun
only raced one car on it...a turbo Eclipse. wasn't much of a race though :-P
Currently looking to get a turbo-charged hatch when I get home...but torn between that and a WRX.
anyway, good to be here!

They are great cars. They are already turbo stock and pushing a good amount of hp and they are AWD. Hell even if you dont want to upgrade it they are still great cars. You can fun in them everyonce in a while and since they are awd they are good in the winter.

I couldn't afford an STi, since $10k will only put me in a "normal" modded WRX (headers/exhaust/intake), which I wouldn't mind. I don't have time or extra money to do it myself, but I love turbo hatchbacks...especially Civics. So you'd take a regular WRX over a turbo civic hatch?

Holy crap! That car is amazing! I thought it was a civic with a WRX-style hood at first, that guy did a great job.
Sadly I do not have the technical know-how to pull that off, but I admire his work.
My original question stands though; would you take a stock WRX over a well-built turbo hatch?

I'd probably still take the WRX just because its AWD Thread Starter

If you had the cash flow, I'd rock the suby hatch.. and then put money into that if you so desired.
