Yeah I've gone through the whole "thinking" of selling the SC, but then after realizing I've put $13k into it, and it's almost paid for, I just keep it in my garage.

The WRX is just a different experience. The stereo sucks, and the road noise can be annoying depending upon the roads. It's a great car to drive, but the transmission isn't perfect, so if you want an all out situation, then just spend the extra money on the sti version. You can always get rid of the stupid giant wing if that's not your thing.

Mine did 288hp and 305tq on a mustang dyno, so it does alright, it's not the fastest car on the road, but it meets my expectations for a fun + reliable car, that can get good mileage if you have self control (I don't). I like having a car I can take down pothole filled gravel/snow/ice roads here in Oregon.

The SC on the other hand is the "classic" that gets many compliments from all walks of life, and is the car for those longer road trips. It's more relaxing to drive, less involving, and in some cases I actually feel more confident in high speed cornering situations with it.

I say keep the SC, you'll appreciate it in just a different manner after driving the wrx for a few weeks.

Wow... my two favorite cars in the same picture, it really doesn't get any better than that.

I'm still wondering myself whether I want to keep my 97 SC4 or sell it and get an 04/05 WRX. If you could send me that second to last picture in better quality, I'd greatly appreciate it. My e-mail is beta2w@ gmail. com

Very nice cars.
