The power is pretty amazing, took awhile to get used to AWD. Launching is without question violent, a sick experience. The change was partly due to the money to power ratio. You can get way more bang for your buck with this car over something NA in the same price range. Weather played a small factor, considering I rarely drove my G in the winter. Though I love my STI, I can't take away the beauty of a G. Looks wise, they just aren't even in the same league, at least I am man enough to admit that.

The FXT is an auto and my husbands daily, we have gone back and forth on making it into a FXTi but not sure yet. The only mods to the FXT are a stock STI catback- which we put on yesterday, painted chrome on the front grill, debadged and mild audio. We have our RS project so I think we are just going to focus on that for now.
I also had a stage 2 ProTuned 08 WRX Hatch, which I sold for my G35. Before I had that I had an 05 Legacy GT 5MT Wagon, stage 2+ Protuned as well. I had Tim Bailey tune both of those cars, he is a great guy.

The G felt faster in the lower end compared to the STI, but like I said, once you hit full boost, it's game on.
NismoGirl2001, that is one sexy RS. Is that a full STI conversion? Btw, do you need any STI goodies? I have some parts I may look to sell.

What suff do you have? My hubby is looking for spring/strut take offs and a rear sway bar.
