Isn't the STI only a bit more for a lot more car?

2009 WRX265 hatch base sticker - $34,895
2009 STI base sticker $ 39,995
2009 STI tech package "base" $45,995

Maybe the used spread doesn't pan out as much, but if you're NOT MODDING (as I've said before, it's my main reason for endorsing this particular model), for our roads, the 265 makes sense. If you're a hotshot modder, then yes, the superior guts on the STI make sense, especially for serious power increases.
