For my WRX, I went with KYB. First, they are cheaper. Second, they are 20% stiffer than OEM. I know you might not want a stiff ride, but the OEM ones are really soft. The 20% stiffer ones pair very nicely with stock springs. Honestly, it will feel and handle much better.
KYB actually makes the OEM ones, so fitment is spot on.
Pros: 20% stiffer, better handling, spot-on fitment

I have used Monroe, Gabriel, and now KYB. I am convinced the KYB provides better control AND ride.
Pros: better control and ride
Based on what I've experienced with my S3 w/o the mag ride w/18s. The ride quality is fine. Part of my drive to work is a country road I drive that is 15 miles of very bumpy asphalt that has been patched over and over. I'm looking forward to trying it out at an autocross in the coming weeks. I surmise the standard suspension will do very well. The ride is on par w/an Evo w/newer KYB shocks or older Bilsteins which is great for me, but others may find it a bit firm.
Pros: ride quality is fine
Cons: may find it firm

my uncle has KYB non-adjustable shocks/struts and they SUCK. I need a kidney transplant whenever i ride in his car. They are soo harsh and stiff, they actually reduce traction. No body roll, squat, or dive, but i wouldnt recommend them for a daily driver
Pros: no body roll, squat, dive
Cons: harsh and stiff, reduce traction
