Andrea Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 I personally love WRX's/STI's. If I would of only had previous car purchase or likewise on my credit, I would be more than likely driving a turbo Legacy and not my Volvo. If I ever wreck the Volvo, I will probably buy a WRX.

lextildeath Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 it was probably an STi, and is faster then 95% of the cars on the board . . . .QUICKER you mean. It has traction on us, which is extremely important from a dig, but it is no match on the highway. And they are still ugly. You could be the best subdue in the world but most girls won't come near you if you are as ugly as an STi. For every pro on one side there is a con on the other, and vice versa. Whatever I am a bit inebriated, but they are still ugly hunks of plastic bodywork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

550 Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Id like to see stock for stock sti and HPT roll on the highway. I know who would win.Yes the new ones look like poo. I would buy an older STi in a heartbeat for the right price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plan_B Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 I agree, they are hot, but some of them are just wrong. I like black ones without that HUGE spoiler wind deflector thingy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lextildeath Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 My friend in his 04 Honda Accord V6 5 speed auto was dead even with one on a highway one time. I was behind watching. It was when I had the Lexus, otherwise I wouldve been watching from my rear view. They were doing 50-120mph and it was over a quarter mile long distance. Then it merged to one lane and the STi guy chickened and my friend won. Since the C70 HPT was in my life, I had the joy of beating 2 of them. Once was on the highway and I was stock, and I think he had exhaust cuz it was big but not too loud unless thats stock and ugly too...but yeah I pulled a few cars, especially once 3rd gear hit.The second time was a few weeks ago the night I put my MBC in. 17 psi and I was just about matching his 300hp number. One tried to pass me on a straight away in a 45mph zone where it has the dotted lines to pass. I was doing 40 and he jumps me and I put literally 10 cars on him, maybe even more and I hit 75 and then chilled out. AWD slows you down at high speeds. Either that or having a really geuinely ugly car. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jross Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Dude, the STI isn't that fearsome. End of story. It's a good car, but there's alot of cars out there that will romp it on the road. Anyone who thinks they're really fast... well this explains alot about our racing forum, actually.
