You can always get a 2nd hand car, anything from an 03 onwards is great and looks better than the 06 IMO. The guy said the Subaru had made leaps and bounds in terms of improvements over the 05 model which tells me that it would be worth it to wait for the 06's to start showing up used. But i'm really at odds to what i want right now because there's nothing in my price range that really excites me. I have a tendancy to look at maintence costs, which fortunately, being a tech, i get the labor for free, but there's still the costs of parts, upgrades, tires, yada yada yada. I'm just going to sit back and see what pops up in the next year or so. Trade in on the Yoda is 0 so i'll have to ditch that to a high school kid who just got their license for like 500 or so. i'm kind of content where i'm at right now anyway and the thought of a car note is just too much at the moment becuase along with a $300+/mo payment, also comes a $300+/mo insurance payment. I just got out of the barely scraping by stage. I'm not in a rush to re-enter it I have the same problem, I could probably afford it, but I don't want to (and probably shouldn't) shell out $6-700 a month for it! My boss has one and I've driven it many times, I really really want one. They are an absolute blast to drive! Did you get it to understeer? It kind of caught me off gaurd when it first happened to me!

I only threw it into one corner and was a baisic 90 degree right which i've done with the Bimmers countless times, and i wasn't really pushing it, so no i didn't.

I should also mentioned this guy owned an E36 M3 prior to this car. He had built the suspension on it but it was a bit too stiff for the rough roads here and the chassis started to crack so he sold it. Last i heard, the new owner had repaired the cracks and was prepping it for the track.
