I'd go with the acura, I've seen those cars fully modded they're amazing. That's just my opinion though

I say this only b/c I know the wrx is fast, the look just isn't my taste and well the lexus aside from the looks never really impressed me.

I was in the same situation a month ago and went for the A4. They are in the same price range.

I also looked at the evo8 but it was just too much, close to double compared to the audi.
