That said, I do find the 2015 WRX with the FA20DIT motor very intriguing.

I would love to see that! 8" of snow with that car. Ground clearance on the 335 is 5"-6"!
Anyways the STi should not be compared to the other 2. Totally different animal. Yes, they have used the same engine for the past decade. But why? There must be a good reason for it. Yes, the car is a rice burner, yes it doesnt look as good as the 2. But I have not heard a bad review on the way the car drives. There should be no discussion on the review at all cause it was idiotic comparing all 3. Another thing...the STi sounds siiiiiiiiiiick with a stock exhaust. Even better with an aftermarket. Its fun to tune them and mod them.
