I used to own a 96 Impreza Sport (Fun and pratical car, great in the NW mountains in Winter). I still have a '95 BMW 325is - Not too good in the snow. Any how I'm looking for 4-door, sporty sedan. I drove the Infinity G35X (AWD), the Acura TL and the new '05 Legacy G, Limited. All 3 were automatic. I did not feel the Sub had a annoying turbo-lag. It definetly pulled hard and the car felt quite solid (Car & Driver felt it was somewhat cheap and not really worth of GT badging). I did overall like the car. The Acura and Infinity are more refined and both felt a bit more sluggish despite the bigger engines and torque + non-turbo. The only dilemna is that here in NW, the dealers are tacking on a $5K premium for the car which puts it right in the pricing of the Acura and the Infinity.
