To be honest, they're very different cars. To keep it simple, the WRX is a sporty car that may handle a little bit better, but the G is a classy luxury car. They are both extremely reliable, but the G is by far more comfortable to drive.
If I were you, go drive both and see what you like better. I just bought my G for overall reliability, comfort, and luxury and I absolutely wouldn't trade it for anything at the same price range.

Im a coupe guy but I do like the wrx. One thing I hate it that one of my neighbors has one and he just feels the need to roll home at about 3am every night and wake the whole neighborhood with his exhaust. And if I am ever outside washing my car he drops it into a lower gear and floors it by my house. If you buy a wrx or a g please dont do either of these things because people will get pissed off.

Like I don't get it just because I am outside taking care of my car which I pride myself on. You feel the need to drop a gear to make your car all loud and drive like an idiot down the street you live on. I'm sorry it just doesn't make sense to me. If I do this will my d*ck get any bigger?

2 houses down from mine, they use to have a dodge charger. Hilarious, one day out of no where I see the guy flooring down the street his enging revving hard. This is in a residential street by the way with kids playing on it sometimes where you should be going max 25 mph. Needless to say couple days later i see his charger in the driveway with the smashed front end! classic!

I think the WRX is fugly. The styling is bad and the interior sucks. The tranny's is nothing spectacular. However, they are beasts and you can really make them fast.
Unless you are getting the STI I wouldn't even consider the WRX.
I think you will find the G35 more reliable of the two choices also.
The best thing to do is just go out and test drive multiples models of them to see how you really like them.

Alright, awesome, sounds like the cars are pretty equal in some of the aspects that are important to me. Thanks guys. What kind of 0-60 can I expect from an 03 or 04 sedan 5at? a 6mt? I've searched and searched and it's just been a pain, so I figured I'd just asked. And also, does the wrx not viciously outhandle the g? Coming from a 189hp 95' bmw sedan, either car will be much, much quicker, but for an old sedan, my car sure can handle. I don't want to lose anything in that department.

I'm not more concerned with speed, I would just like to know how the different cars and models will compare to each other in terms of acceleration and handling. If I was only concerned with speed, I wouldn't be driving a '95 bmw sedan, not that that speaks much for reliability or fuel consumption either..

The WRX is a basically a rally car, it's going to handle better than the G35. Be prepared for a wider turning radius with the G. Other than that, the G is close to as fast stock, it has plenty of kick for every day driving, this coming from a 21 year old.
Furthermore, do you enjoy sitting in extremely sporty seat (not sure if they still only come in cloth), with a little better handling and speed, or would you like extremely comfortable, with heated leather seats that has a very quiet ride, smoother than the WRX, and personally I think way better styled.
Depends on your style, but I think they're very different cars and it's only a matter of what you prefer. They're both good cars though if that's what you're concerned about.
