Being able to negotiate a ST2 with nav and moonroof to the price of a base WRX sealed the deal for me. Before you dis the ST for issues you've had with your previous Focus, go drive one, you will be surprised how much tighter it handles and performs, coming from a '12 ti owner. (Now the wife's ride). Good luck with your decision!.

I agree...at the moment, the ST would be a winner for me, with the TDI a close 2nd (though I'd have to look into the VW's electrical issues mentioned above).
