about the wrx sti
A friend of mine just stopped by with his new 2006 STI. I am not a big fan of these cars, but I will say it's a pretty nice car. Far from the average rice can I believe. Of all common imports, I would say these are the best. The interior was really nice with a beautiful display and it has the differential controls with auto or manual adjustability. He sold off his v6 stang(go figure) but took a hit for about 33 G's for this one! I'd rather have a Cobra :rolleyes: he is still breaking it in, but i'll try to get a run or two out of 'em. Do you think I stand a chance w/ my mods? Im getting my gears in next week. Or should I hurry up and order my nitrous kit? :p

Hed smoke you. you may have a chance with gears.

stock STI is far from rice. Its just a nice import, one of the very few i wouldn't mind owning. The thing i like about the STI is that the parts are actually functional (Hood scoop, wing, etc etc). And on top of everything it hauls ass, If i needed a fast four door i would prolly own one.
|
It will hand you your ass without gears, and probably still will then, because he has awd, and they are fast as crap.
|
yeah the sti/evo are bad ass cars. I wouldn't mind owning one if they wern't 30-35k. If i was going to shell out that kind of money....i think i'd go luxury import of some sort. Something like a C class benz.
|
Those things are way over-priced! I can't believe anyone on this planet would pay 33k for that car.

Motortrend had an artical STi vs. Evo, and the one they tested was 32 grand and 0-60 in 4.5 secs with 300 hp. Basically the upgrades are some exterior mods and transmission changes gettin more hp to the road. along with a bigger intake and rear pressure. So as for now it's faster by .2th of a second in teh 0-60 and probably .3 in the 1/4 mile, that being said the newer Cobra is guna have an extra 60 horses from it's predecessor.

yeah you should order the nitrous.

I love the cobra's, but for me, the smart thing to do would be to invest in a SC. 29,000.00 compared to about 5K :confused: I almost traded in my GT for a cobra awhile ago, but those dealerships like to rape people with financing. I could always sell my car private party :rolleyes:
