They should be hooked together buy two subies and pulled apart buy them. Then lets see them talk shit. What are these bullshit numbers? Q factor, they can suck it deep.
Personally I thought this was a very reasonable review. I love the Sti but it is true if your buying this car, your buying it cuz you love it and the little things won't turn you away. They might even suck you further in (like the huge spoiler). But they are correct some persona who has no knowledge or specific want for the car might see many imperfections
i don't think comparing a STi to any other car on pavement because these cars are not meant to be raced on pavement. They're rally cars, bring all your supras to dirt roads and see how they do
why are you comparing this car to other cars in its price range? This car is in a different class. And as a matter of fact those who own an Sti know that going to 7-eleven for a big gulp is just an excuse to drive the beast
great car but... the regular wrx is a better deal.. sti is a wee lil bit faster. i got an 07 wrx and raced my friends 07 sti.. yeah basically same results strip and track.. love subies tho =)
just alittle bone stock? good luck. i have not met someone who i was just ALITTLE FASTER. only when they had modifications. which u need alot. dont kid yourself
@konysz1 sti has better suspension, breaks, MUCH stronger tranny and more horespower. with the price difference you cannot make the WRX outperform the sti with equal drivers
I have a Bugeyed Wrex here in Chicago and think the body style is perfect. The new STi stock I hate its looks. There is a lot you have to do to make that car look good. Ive done nothing to modify its looks. She has factory installed side skirts, spoiler and air diffuser and is simply beautiful.
the reason they fucked up both scoobys and evos is because one thing... they both withdrew from wrc... only privat drivers run evos or stis... no more mitsu or scooby teams
I felt the same way, until i took a ride in my friends dads. He retuned it, new BOV, Invidia catback, and a newew sports suspension. Funnest ride of my life...
The 08 and 09s have better engines and are tweaked for more power, but they're missing the 07's mean look, my opinion the old 4 doors are way better looking
mean look? the 08 from the front looks the meanest out of everything they ever built. this is more rally looking than before. The back is the thing that sucks and looks bland. the flared fenders are outstanding!
truth... The new car is essentially more of the classic "rally car look" than the older one... It has bigger fender flares, more rigid chassis, and shorter overhangs... The body design of the old one was shared across ALL trim levels... The new one is has a different chassis than the WRX and regular Impreza versions. You'll have to fabricate the big-ass fenders on the lower trim levels to look like a new STi, instead of just adding a wing/hood scoop on the older cars to look like an older STi...
i love 07 and 06 but im gonna get an 05 because there cheaper and im 16 and i ont hae enough to buy a 07.and no im not a daddys boy i worked for ive years to get enough for this car.
I have an '07. I don't hate the new design, I just want my red "STI" intercooler and blue suede interior back. Oh and you can keep the bodyroll - wheel screams please. Other than that the 08 looks alright.
Bring back the saloon . Subarus rule , i have a 06 hawk eye and proper love it . Wouldn't buy the new shape though , think designers had a couple of blue cheese reefers lol
I really agree, for the performance it has improved, but for looking, eehh, hatchback, twin exhaust, nahhh, its hard to accept. And what it is eaven more sad, is that they will continue desining there future models with that stupid 5 doors idea. It all messed up the angry looking wrx that i loved
Lol I can show you my Black STi 07 and possibly you'll drool. I preferened 04-05 design before, but now I prefer the new 06-07 styling. Anyhow, either the 04-05 or 06-07 style, it's still stylish and better looking than a Srt-4 neon! it's like someone have push and put a stick up on it's back!
no it isnt, and the little turbo of dodge can do serious things beeing a cheap car so plx if u dont like it its ok, but dont say its uglie cuz it isnt.
0-60 in 4.6 (launched)...M3 like handling...subie reliability...4 doors and a trunk...performance in ANY road condition...fastest car under 35k...how could you go wrong?
I own an 06 STI and love it. Nothing can even come close to it on a country road. I would put money vs a ferrari on a tight country road. (not that I wouldnt want the ferrari more). And if it is wet out, forget it, suby wins.
audi rs4 vs 06 sti awd vs awd, i have to say as far as the sport compact category goes the wrx is my favorite, but i highly doubt it could keep up with a 4.2 v8 strapped to audis famous quattro awd, but im not tryin to talk shit because they make those 4 cylinders fast as hell
Its funny that the claim a lower horsepower in this years model. Maybe they are right. Its for the insurance as the STI does have one of the highest stolen rate
the STi still puts out the same power as it did in the 2004 and 2005 cars but cars are now rated differently(SAE Rating), so most cars now have different HP & TQ numbers even though the car hasn't changed in power, just the way they measure it.
the evo came first, the first lancer was built in 1973 not the evo, the first impresa was made long time after, the evo is an upgraded lancer same thing with the sti, the fist one to make car ralli was the audi, then the mitsubishi and the subaru, audi was the first to introduced 4wd into ralli, then mitsu, but yeah the mitsu is older and is a lot better than the subie.
Yet you don't see Evo's anywhere on the top 5 when it comes to rally. It's no wonder besides Hyundai they too have one of the highest warranties. But yet cars like Honda's, Toyota's and other reputable companies don't have the same warranty as yours even though 'mitsubishi is a lot better than subaru.' /sarcasm
These guys dont know sh!t. Yea Subaru put the ruff vaine on there just to copy the EVO, lol. 1/4 mile in 14 sec and 0-60 in 5.4 sec lol, they cant drive either.
I hate this new body (well the front of the car). My fav WRX is still the 05 model. I know that technically, this is a better car, but as far as curb appeal... It looks like a suped-up/customized Pontiac Sunfire. Ugly.
Subaru didnt change the power levels, the standard for measuring horsepower/torque was changed
