Have you decided? Anyhoo That is quite a tough decision you have there. I own both a 2005 STI and a 2015 fiesta ST. In day to day traffic situations the Fiesta will be your best friend, clutch is light and easy and mpg is miles above the STI. As far the as heel toe, it seems to be ok in my car... not as good as the STI though. I basically only drive my STI to track days and as a weekend type car. My personal recommendation would be to keep both! But I don't know if that's an option for you.

Haha, my twin! Couldn't agree more.

Haven't had a chance to go for another test drive (life) but still planning to do so. Glad to see other sti/wrx owners making the switch or adding to their collection. Unfortunately my sti is my daily driver as I already have another DE/weekend car. So no way to keep the Subaru and ST. I've found several mods for the ST that seem to address most of my concerns and I am excited to try them. Maybe a need to borrow a modded car with pedal extensions and a short shifter to make sure of the ST purchase.

I'll report back after another drive

Update.... I am going for it. Love my sti and still worried I won't be able to make the st my own but looking forward to the challenge and experience. That and getting more than 20 mpg for once.
