sorry, but no. for cars in this price range HIDs are expected. i know since i've had my STI i'll never be able to go without them.

I have the 07 STI and love my lights. But when it comes down to performance. Like power and handling the EVO wins. With that extra money you save buying a EVO can go towards mods. NON MR edition! When you take a look at the 08. Performance is secondary to comfort and practicality.

I'd like to hear what they have to say about these cars after driving them around on a daily basis (to work, to the store, long trips, etc.). Then give us their opinion.

Edmunds recently began a long-term test on the new STI.

So did Car and Driver, interestingly enough. I'm guessing Subaru was giving out STIs for long term reviews. Nice that Edmunds actually states that Subaru gave it to them.
