First Mustang...

I joined this site when I was deciding between a WRX or a Mustang in 2005, I lived in CT then so I went with the WRX. I moved to VA and monday I went to carmax to LOOK at a new WRX and drove home in a 2007 GT. Gotta say I think it's a much better choice.

Congrats! I just bought a 2008 from a carmax dealer as well. I live in IL but where I'm going to school I can walk everywhere so snow won't be a problem, I just won't drive. Looks like you had a sweet WRX for the time, though.

Cool car, and awesome Mustang!

I'm in Richmond about 3 miles from the short pump mall.

The wrx had better handling obviously, and the steering felt more sturdy and responsive. due to the lag though you really couldn't have much fun unless you had some open road to get on it. I'm having the best time in the mustang even staying within reason of the speed limits lol.
