Also all true. My classics have both had very stiff rides, and the RA i drive now is not the most comfortable on any sort of long drive due in large part to the noise. Later Imprezas have far better interiors, and you feel like it was worth what you spent, and make for a better place to be most of the time. Never driven a bug eye WRX (only the STi) so can`t comment on the handling etc directly, but have been a passenger in a couple and it was a nice place to spend a few hours.

That said, all counts for nowt when you hit the B roads where the classic RA is king.
