We do have set speed limits in Oz and you probably use yours for rallies and club events etc. but do you need all that for every day driving to work to the shops and anything else?

My WRX offers great performance in the twisties for weekends, and returns fuel consumption below 10 per 100 around town during the week.
What local 'poser car' offers similar size, performance, economy and features?

Why would he do that when the same can be achieved in one vehicle, without the need to lug a trailer around everywhere? That's a big compromise, not an equivalent.

This is the beauty of choice, we can drive what we want. Again, if a local equivalent was available we would have looked at it. The 200SX is hardly a 'female midlife crisis' car but she loves it.
Simple as that really. Of course my response is based on my opinion but when I am buying a car that is all that counts. Nobody should tell me what to buy!
