I'm also worried that he might be right about the new STI. Impreza's have never been about looks, but they have been about cheap thrills. A guy driving an STI probably is a real car guy, because the cars homely looks aren't there to impress, it doesn't have a fancy nameplate, it just drives faster and better than the next guys. In general the Impreza lineup has been softened this time around. Still, if the new hatchback makes it more competitive in the WRC, I'll be happy with that.
I've been to the Rally of the Tall Pines in Bancroft a couple of times, and while I always enjoy it, I do appreciate that its not a great spectacle, in so far as that most of what happens is out of sight, but then I don't see all the thrills at an F1 race, or an ALMS race either. And I could go to an oval to watch more of the race, but then it isn't at all interesting to me. What rally drivers do never fails to astonish me.
