OK, so nobody is buying them because they're garbage. Yet wherever you live, you're regularly lining up with douchebag 22 WRX owners "challenging" you? What -drives- people like you to dance your fingers across your keyboard writing utter fiction? Any genuine, credible "car guy" knows rule #1 of drag racing - at a track or red light - is that if you want to compete & win, you need to abuse the CRAP out of your transmission/clutch. People like you, "regularly decimating" hordes of 22 WRX's simply must be replacing clutches and transmissions regularly.
I'm almost unquestionably older than you and sold my 11 STI prior to picking up my WRX GT. That car had $24k invested under it's hood alone. When some lesser (much lesser) cars lined up against me, I knew non-abusive launching and shifting would result in a loss. That's called reality. BUT on some rare occasions, when for example, I had an M3 and M6 line up, an AMG, even a Shelby Mustang, I prayed a bit - switched on launch control (Cobb AP) and let it rip, with a shuddering launch & a bit of 4 wheel spin. Each one went down by 100 mph.
But "decimate"? "Smoke"? These words are tossed around recklessly. In each case, they hung with me pretty good. Each was beaten, but by the time we pulled off and gave our cars a break, it was friendly and no excuses about poor shifts. I don't pretend to be a pro - like all the teens & millennials on these boards do - and F up shifts and do that, and I have been "smoked". If I talk to the guy, I tell them that I F'd up 3rd gear (usually the one) and they say "yeah, that was pretty obvious, too bad."
Guys like you are the lying douchebags of the world.
