so the time has come where i have gotten bored with my tC. i have a 2007 superwhite that i have only had for a year. within that year i have done most everything you can to it other than performance,because lets be honest the tC isnt a performance car unless you dump alot of money into motor work. well i dont want todo that and i am looking into getting something different. im looking into getting a 2004/05 wrx. but am not sure if its something i should do. would you guys recommend keeping the tc or going with the wrx? i want something that i can work with performance wise. thanks alot.

Do you have a budget in mind? That's a huge factor. No one can really help you unless you have a $$$$ value.

Also, make sure you know what you're getting yourself into with a different car. Just because it is a better starting platform doesn't mean it is any cheaper/more cost efficient to start modifying than something like the tC. The tC in itself is a good platform. Also a WRX can get real expensive to mod real quick. It's not long before you're at a point to where you need to start upgrading everything (engine build, different turbo, fuel injectors, custom tune, clutch, etc..)

Basically, what's your goal with a new car and just how far do you want to take it? And again, budget plays a lot into anyone offering you any suggestions.

I'm not too worried about budget moding wise. I'm look for something around 10-15k. And I know the costs behind build subarus. I want something turbod that's the problem.

Mustang GT. there's really no better bang for the buck on performance, and you should be able to find plenty of used ones in good shape, performance parts are easy to find and inexpensive, and there is LOTS of online support

Nah I'm not a mustang person. My mom has a gt and it just doesn't impress me much..

I went and test drove a 2006 wrx and was really liked it but then on the way home from the dealer I was thinking about all the time and money I put into my tc and how well it drove.... It's gonna be so hard to get rid of my love.

So keep the tC and buy a project car. If you're swapping cars every years s dumping cash into modifications, you could probably afford two cars.

If you have your eyes on a WRX, look into a Mazdaspeed3/6
If you want the awd go with the 6 if you dont car you can go with the 3.


They're fairly cheap and really quick for what they are.
