Any opinions on the hatchbacks? Build quality, ride, fun factor, mechanical issues? Was toying with the idea of it for a fun yet practical car but don't know much about them.
Price seem fair for year/mileage? I'm thinking on the high side (even the 2011) but what do I know. http://wwwb.autotrader.ca/cars/subaru/im...c=True&wcp=True

^titty, your info is only true for the bug eye impreza. Big tasty is talking about the hatch, which is a number of generations and revisions later.
The car is all good, cept for that mad understeer. Working on it (depending on what) can be a PITA due to engine config. Do the normal WRX's have the same water jacket issue as the sti? I'd look into that.

Basic interior, decent performance. Shitty on gas & ride is firm.
pretty much this.
i had the 08 sti first hatch gen. and everything was x2 for the above lol...
for the most part they seem like decent everyday cars, just keep up to date on your service.

i had two 04 WRXs and 07 STI.
The WRXs where great dailys. Espeically my black 04 that had 180,000km on it Drove so good.
WRXs make for better dailys than the STI, that thing drank gas as bad as my excursion drank diesel (almost) and like others said was pretty rough ride for our crappy roads. But damn was it fun haha
