Dude, the Subaru 2.5RS Impreza is SLOW! My boy's Integra type-r all motor kills those. Why would you want to settle for less? A friend of mine bought one a while back and she was enthused becuz it's a Subaru with AWD turbo. Later she hated it cuz it lost to almost everything out there. She missed her old car. All I can say is, if you want to settle for more, go after an LS6 V8 Trans Am (my personal favorite since i was a kid) or atleast a Turbo MR2 or S2000.
But over all, I've had 2 other cars in my life besides the Celica. A H22A (JDM) Vtec Prelude and a 3.0 Vtec Accord. And honestly, the Celica is bar far the most adored by me. No doubt that there is lack of power, but definately more benefitial and RELIABLE than the other two cars. I don't regret getting it at all and probably won't ever sell it. I'll probably pass it down to my children or something.
