other than all the obvious bs and my dislike for the look of wrx's the major question is what are you gunna do with it?

the gtr is a bigger stronger and heavier car that can seriously move while the wrx is a nimble Fing little thing that can do some serous cornering (tho id rather an evo)

me id pay off a serious chunk of the mortgage but ive got a track car in the shed so

if it has to be a 4 door, 2.0L, smallish car

FIXED, besides, some Cefiro's came in AWD too, if traction is what you want.

Please die! :)

Lets face it, apart from the GTR in mention, there are way too many R33s running around...theyre becoming the Commodore - something different?

No, IMO its no longer an import if you can walk out your front door and go find one in a non HPV car yard.

Reckon this guy is starting to get the feeling that the WRX isnt liked around here much ?

Yeah I know it LOOKS like that...it's just that we 33 owners drive around ALOT (because our cars are just SO great) so it just LOOKS like there are more 33's about than there really are. :)

Anyway at least it means parts are forthcoming etc.

BTW I see WAY more Imprezas about. Now they are common.

Does that mean Commodores are the greatest car ever? seing as there are more of them than any other car on the road ? :) no, it means theyre cheap, and for knuckleheads.

Hahah, just kidding. I dont exactly hate the R33, I just think theyre the least appealing, and too many of them...I reckon Japan would take some back if we offered.

So, you're comparing a NON-STI to... not only a GTR but a GTR V Spec...that make the battle even more unfair. Disregarding such obvious advantages is like being stubborn and insisting your Civic runs 11 seconds without NoS...only in the movies buddy :(

Other pro's / cons:

Probably just as cheap to insure and run the GTR

Better response from 6 cylinders, and displacement

AWD system is much better

You'll probably find more support (and social acceptance) for the GTR on forums

EDIT:

Of course, this is all assuming you want power and performance, not hair gel and nasal delivery....

true... i see shit loads of imprezas on the road.. and i drive around alot.... they are nothing special..

i think the OP should have got his answer by now...

4cyl 2.0L single turbo vs 6cyl 2.6L twin turbo

id pick the gtr .. its got more power...looks better... and u dont have to like it in the bum to own one.

To everyone saying WRX's are slow, did anyone see [GTR ETA] at powercruise? Because im sorry to say, but that was owning everything until it got engine knocks...

That said, WRX's are still gay and the GTR wins hands down :D

    • I found the same with Subaru’s.  I own and love the SG9 Forester, after that model 2008+, Subaru threw the ugly stick at all their line up and somehow managed to make them look worse with every succeeding year.  lol
    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something
