I doubt anyone who was going to buy a STI would change their mind and get a WRX instead because it was "close enough". With the pricing being a whole ten grand apart, the cars are in two different markets imo.

As of March 2010, the MSRP of WRX Hatch Limited is $36,395, while the MSRP for the BASE STI is $39,995.
I know the 08+ Canadian STis are relatively cheaper than 04-07.
But, if you factor in insurance costs in BC, the coverages for the WRX are much cheaper than the STI.

You wonder who would pay that kind of money for these cars, and yet they're all over the streets. *shrug*

My 04' STi msrp'd for $48,500, while my my 06' STi msrp'd for $49,900.
It's amazing to see what they've done with the pricing making it more affordable, until you see what they've taken away to get to that price point.
This is a step in the right direction for the STi. I'm just tired of new designs every two years. As an owner of every GD style they released, I've seen first hand the values drop when they release a new model. Other than the GR change, there was nothing ground breaking either. Just change, for sake of change.

Am I becoming a salesman for Subaru? lol
I was ordering a 2010 WRX limited, but I thought I should wait for the 2011 WRX now  [3 months counting] 
I like this Original WRX wagon Concept. [Not from Subaru ]

Humm looking at those pics, they better make the new STi Sedan look more badass or come stock with 350hp or something crazy. Then again they gonna raise the price to something stupid like 50k+ if that happens.
