When to lunch with my coworker who has a WRX, that thing is fast. With 5 people, it still can move. WRX can really hug a turn. From start, that the car grabs. All I have to say it is sweeeet.

 

it's a LIGHT car, 3000lbs.

 

Does the WRX have a forum i can go visit?

 

I test drove one today but it only had 65 miles on the clock. I didn't launch it hard but did a couple of punchs from ~30 and up. It pulls best in 3rd but IMO my CLS will walk away from it on a rolling start. The handling was great even in stock trim! I merged from one fwy to another and was doing 80+ as I entered the fwy. The tires were protesting a little but it was very stable and I felt comfortable in the car at that speed. Great bang for the buck.

 

Ya it takes some technique to get the most out of the car. Once you have it down you can easily smoke a cls.
