Not better than a sti no
They are just a special edition of a wrx with diffrent alloy, spoiler and don't have a strong 6 speed or brembos. And don't think they are 300hp out the box either like some do lol.
If you can afford get a sti as it will be less money to modify as its got the 6 speed and Brembo calipers as standard.

I'm actually going for a look at this on Saturday. I spotted the bottle of oil too and what looks like oil all over the A/C pulley on the right of the cambelt circuit - I'm not familiar with Impreza engines, is that a bad sign? I hope not...
