I'll agree with the first part, or at least just drop it since it's not going anywhere.
I still think that for the average buyer (ie. not the people you find on specific websites), both cars will be considered equally. A lot of people seem to like the new look of the Impreza since it's selling quite well. I agree that the WRX needed those changes but the Ralliart needs some changes as well.
If you actually care about hardcore performance, you don't want a sunroof. I hate my sunroof. It makes wearing a helmet in the car difficult which affects on-track usability. A lot of those other things you listed aren't important for performance. I would like HIDs but they're not a vital option for me. I wouldn't be surprised if HIDs were offered on the WRX eventually. Seats would be nice but I'm also happy having side airbags. A lot of people in the local car club don`t like the evo Recarods anyways, they find them to be too tight for a daily driver.

Recaro is another top notch feature you will find only in the ralliart.
In fact it makes me grin about how many great features you will find only in the ralliart. No sin saying which car has the features u love.
You need to buy the whole upgrade package to get the Recaros don't you? If they came as a separate option, it'd be really good and more economical for those who don't want the extra stuff.
You're asking this on a forum dedicated to Mitsubishis in a thread dedicated to the Ralliart, I can tell you the answer already.

I wouldn't go that far, I think some people will still consider the Ralliart simply because they can't afford the evo in some way.

U have to buy the recaro sport package:
The Recaro Sport Package gives you the Recaro Front Seats, HID headlights, 650 Watt Rockford Fosgate 9 speaker system, Sirius Satellite Radio for 6 months and a 6CD In-Dash Head Unit.
That rules.

And if people can buy the recaro sport package weŽll see the stats but IŽll say that the majority of them will buy the recaro seats.
And no talking needed about getting HIDs....
suby rex will not get them.
