I still want one. I test drove one when new, but went with my 1st Mazdaspeed6 instead. No regrets on the MS6 as I bought a 2nd after getting rid of the 1st. Sadly, it seems like all the used ones for sale are beat to death or lol overpriced.

Seems like it's the same with the STi. It would make the perfect winter DD IMO.
