Woz going to get a turbo but after looking at the pros & cons plus the wife uses it to commute all week, reluctantly decided to go for another sport.

I've gone the other way (oo-eerr), turbo to sport, due to impending house buy, marriage (not the shot gun version!) etc..
Love the sport (or rather GX) to bits, miss the turbo for straight line thrills.. but I will get another one (turbo) when I've got a couple of things sorted.
Round the twisties near me I only loose out on the straights, albeit short straights...

I have often driven the sport as loan cars and I can say going from a sport to a turbo can be likened to 'breathing fresh cool mountian air after a bad case of the flu!'
The sport is an ok car but it cannot realistically be considered in the same league as the real performance Subarus.
The sport however is the best car I have driven to date for high speeds over speedhumps.

I got a Sport as a Company Car MY99 T (one of the early T plates)
had it just under 3 years put 120,000 miles on the clock, thoroughly enjoyed it, one of the best cars I had driven for handling etc
changed jobs and got a Golf Gti Turbo (petrol) not in the same league as the Sport (lower in my opinion, for driving)
now I have to get my own car, and bought a Turbo last week, loving every minute of it, and the Golf has started to grow grass on the window sills
