From what i've heard from talking to people it shouldnt leave a scar at all, it should be smooth as a babys *** actually- consider it an "extreme exfoliation"

The thing is I have already done a complete wiring+engine+interior+++ swap... it's far from impossible, it's just more work and mroe trouble than most people (like me circa April of this year) would think.

Quoting the Subaru dealer representative, "We are taking the rally out and making them cushier. Studies have shown that we will sell more cars to the U.S. market if they were more user friendly. We also think that the die hard rally fans will love the new STI 5 door." So to answer, because they are un rallying it and/or stupidity and/or turning thier backs on the true enthusiasts that brought the wrx this far.

The thing is, fat dumb lazy Americans will buy more cushy WRXs than enthusiasts can buy "good" WRXs. So dumbing it down is actually good, because Subaru will have more money for motorsports development, and they can continue to make a "sharp" STi for the enthusiasts.

All Americans are fat and lazy including me; Those "cozy, cushy" Americans won't buy a compact, 4 cyl turbo WRX for comfort. That's the reason why there are still 2006 wrx premiums with $4500 off sitting in car dealerships. All the TR manuals are gone and all that's left of 06,07 wrx's are cozy, cushy ones. I understand what they are trying to do and I respect that they are enterprising enough to go that route. I just wished they didn't make the stupid mistakes that they do i.e. the svx auto only transmision, the 1st gen Tribeca front grill, the hatch only sti and the list goes on.
