I own a 2002 WRX and I ran a 14.5 @ 92.7mph, 100% bone stock, 1300 miles, 70 degree weather, 250lb driver, 1/2 tank of gas, and my 1st time to the track in this car.

It's a fun daily driver.

Congratulations on the WRX ... it must be weird to drive that car after owning a Stang!!! You must feel in control like there is no tommorow! I did this opposite... I had a Talon TSI AWD ... and then moved up to the 2000 Stang. The reason i say up is I had to many problems with that Chrysler POS... plus the Stang is much faster on the 0-60 and quarter. Anyways driving the stang is such a blast with all the xtra torque and wheel spin.

Just so you know WRX is a million times better than my 97 TSI AWD in my mind. It actually will wistand some beating.
