Yeah, the WRX is definetely capable of getting faster 0-100 times... but I do think the XR5 feels faster, definetely once your moving. And even more so if your under 5000RPM in the WRX.

No cruise control is definetely a major con in the XR5, however there is some high quality after market systems you can put in.. Also fuel economy and insurance prices are other things to consider.
