Think about how far you plan to go if you intend to mod the car, if you are thinking you may want to go for serious mods/power either buy a WRX, keep it pretty much std, then swap it for an sti later down the line, or get an sti to start with.

Yes there are a few high power WRXs on here mine included but speak to any of us and we'd reccomend the sti as a better start point - simple example is a 6 speed box from an STI will be around £1.5 to £2k, Brembos or similar/better brakes £500 to £1000 and you can see why any saving by buying a WRX quickly disappears.

£4.5k could probably get you a Bug STI possibly even a prodrive edition.
