A bandmate has an 04 wrx wagon, and it's relative invisibility to cops is another plus in addition to the utility. He has the access port tuning, up-pipe, cat back exhaust, and maybe one other mod. His wagon makes roughly 275 or so hp, and is a very close to stock STI's. His car also has STI springs and koni shocks plus a rear strut tower bar that is easily removed.

It's just a great car. I love the WRX/STI/EVO et al but am not a fan of the boy racer look the large rear wing gives these cars to accentuate their boy racer appeal.

Having said that, a de-winged STI would be great. I notice that the STI version seems considerably dronier and louder, possibly irritating for commuting or long trips.
