When Subaru redid the WRX STI in 2008 as a wagon, it was a colossal disappointment that threatened to kill off one of the greatest rivalries among sports cars. I can't even imagine how many WRX fans were as disappointed as I was. Don't get me wrong, wagons are the smart choice when choosing a practical vehicle for hauling people and stuff around. But for a performance car, it makes no sense especially when you consider that wagons never really caught on in America. Subaru seemed to be trying to appeal to a non-existent crowd while neglecting its loyal fan base. But now that the WRX STI sedan has returned for 2011, the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution rivalry is back in full-swing.
