Hi,
Personally I'll either go for the Impreza or Mazda 3, as both are
sporty looking.
Haven't test drive the Subaru before so can't really comment on it,
but its a AWD, and heard that control are good also.
Mazda3 is a good car nevetheless, but the price is a little steep,
unless you are talking abt the basic saloon. I like the hatch back
better.
