CNet's Take on the STi

FluxXxSTi · 07-24-2005, 12:16 PM

lol, just came across this on CNet, I got a pretty good laugh at it

Seems like these people are more interested in gadgets in a car than anything else, they gave points against it because it's cd player didn't have mp3 compatability, please.

wtf are they doing reviewing cars

Apparently if you are a normal everday American that buys a Ford Taurus, Honda Accord, etc., then you would probably rate the car a 6.5/10. I mean, the whole reason I bought the STI was for it's sound system and GPS navigation, and imagine my surprise when all I got was some DCCD and intercooler sprayer doo-hicky.

I saw it couple weeks ago. I left my opinion on the site as well. I just don't get why Cnet would review a STi or cars for that matter.

A little random but, the guy whose comment is titled "un-freakin-believable" says that his friend has a red STi.

I agree, the car should get a 6.5/10, I mean cmon, no leather seats, no laser guided cruise control, no heated steering wheel, plus the Ford Fivehundred KILLS it in trunk space! BTW, I just got a job with cnet :P

In all seriousness, I dont think any car person looks at cnet anyways. Can you say... S203!
