Gimme Cat

Hello folks. I just recently got my STI after driving around in a 2.5i for 10 months.

Goodbye Scoobie...

Hello Gimme Cat!

Pedro Solberg Jr. barely able to reach the shifter.

Pedro Solberg Jr. wishing he could de-badge the STI emblem so ricers would leave him alone.

btw, I'm pete_falcone on NASIOC. I spend more time there, but with my recent purchase, I have reason for going here now. Looking forward to the iwsti experience.

pedro is a scary kid...lol jk How do you like it over the wrx?

gimme_cat · 05-30-2007, 10:12 PM

Pedro is more annoying than scary. heh.

The STI is a kick in the pants compared to the NA 2.5i. I completely wet myself exiting the dealer with the STI and stalled it about 6 times in bumper-to-bumper traffic on the Cross Bronx. The 2.5i didn't mind going slow, but our STI's hate feeling inhibited.

Welcome. This place is heaven compared to Nabisco, enjoy.

Welcome to IWSTi. Please read the stickies, get Pedro some counseling, and enjoy the forums.

+1 to debadge and remove that dealership plate. And if you think the STi is tough in traffic, drive an Evo. Great cars but very tightly wound for a stint in bumper-to-bumper gridlock.
