On longer trips, I'll still use the XK8. But my trip to work includes some major twisties. So for 20 minutes a day, I can be Senna at Monaco! I'm as much in love with the WRX now (10 years on) as the first day I picked it up, so I'm hoping the STI and I develop the same kind of "relationship".
You'll enjoy it for sure. My last two fun cars were a 1st gen MR2 (needed a bunch more power but man did it handle) and a '72 240Z which I bought new and kept for a very long time. Seriously considered the WRX before I bought an Acura CLS. I don't have time for a weekend car anymore and that's why I got the Infiniti. BMW 330 handling and power at 2/3 the price. Very comfortable on the interstate and much more reliable too.
