is ther much diff in power between the three?
is the sti quicker than the wrx2.5? for example?

Dont get a uk car for starters buy a jap spec much much much much better.

And sti's are much quicker then wrx's and they also handle much better.

Not to sure if its an import

But they usually come with these extra's as standard over the uk car.

Hid headlights
rear privacy glass
twin scroll turbo
equal length headers

Basically a better car all round not to mention the tuning capability

jdm sti's seem to hold value slightly better than uk versions. Having said that i have seen a few go cheaply on here recently. Drive both; after that the decision will be easy - all you need worry about then is what age etc jdm you want
