yep, def the wrx. A friend of mine has one and lets me drive it all the time, and it handles anything i can throw at it. Everything about them is perfect.
oh and the drivetrain rumors, are just rumors. My friend talked to a subaru dealer who owns a highly modded sti, and he said as long as the car is relativley stock and isn't pushing insane ammounts of hosepower, that you don't have to worry about the axles/drivetrain, as i used to believe the same rumors.
And i've dumped it at 6k rpm and it's still fine so i wouldn't go freaking out about it.
oh and if not the wrx, then i'd suggest the civic si, i know they're not that great, but i think they're cool.
