    I think it has a lot to do with region too. Here in the mountain west, STI's and WRX's are ridiculously common and I can't think of any time I've seen one really douching it up. I can't even think of any time anyone other than a friend has tried to race me here.

    Is the Subie included in the "need for speed" video game? If so, it would explain ALOT!

    Bringing up the dead here but thought I'd share my .02. I couldn't agree more about most of the WRX/STI crowd which is why I opted for a 05 Legacy GT thinking that group would be better, I was wrong. I've always got along with everyone on all the forums I've been apart of and became great friends with a lot of them but I have never met a bigger group of a$$ hat, fart can loving d-bags than I did on the Subaru forums.
