WRX for Daily Driver/Fun Car... Good choice?

wrx and gas saver don't really go together

That's not entirely true. it's all a matter of driving sensibly and staying out of boost. You'll be getting about 25mpg on the highway and 20 in the city if you don't drive "like an *******."

At least I see these kind of numbers on my 08, and the turbo makes boost at 2500rpm. So I'm even on boost quite a bit.

I honestly drive very moderately other than when I absolutely need to get somewhere IE the hospital or something.

But also, you have to consider my best is 18 on the highway and 14 in the city in my chevy. It burns a nice hole in my pocket.
I asked a couple guys and they said up to 30 mpg on the highway and a little over 20 in town. Granted these were the 2.0s not the 2.5s.
