Ah yes, other people have Winter. I forget that at times.
 If you're up for feeding the WRX go for it. Some AWD Audi cars out there that get decent mpg, but when anything breaks you'll pay for it. Also rechecked and the WRX does get 20/27, was looking at the STI earlier.Get a Vette then, same mpg and 500 pounds lighter.  Only thing is the WRX only has 27 more hp than the RSX, but weighs 300 pounds more. You do have nice AWD though. Another option would be a Lancer Evo. I've had bad experiences with Mitsubishi, but the Lancers are rated fairly well. Best thing would be to test drive them all if possible, then determine exactly what you're wanting in regards to mpg, drive-train, and size.

Yep we tend to get alot of snow at times an rwd sucks in winter I thought those numbers seemed alittle low for the wrx an just like any other car you can get better than that if you drive it right My plan is to test drive all 3 an probably have my friend that owns a used car lot find what i want. But im still alittle ways off from that lol -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy
