1st if you look hard enough you can find 996 turbos in the high 50s low 60s range... and by the time you get an sti to 450hp + purchase price and supporting mods to keep it somewhere near as reliable as a bone stock porshe you're pretty much in that range... now.... modding the porsche on the other hand will cost you 17k just for a turbo kit injectors and tune.


all that being said.. my neighbors friend just ordered a 997 turbo and when i get my license back i'm planning on building a gc8 widebody to spank him... cause thats more my style ohh... and i'll own my car out right hahaha.... (along with two others)

You know very very little about Porsche...

Lol, "Subaru Impreza WRX STI unknown power"

Oh yea, and about Porsches...
Overpriced? Maybe
Overrated? I don't think so.

I don't think many people here would turn down a Porsche if they could swap it with their STI. The STI is great, but I've driven a Carrera S, and well its good stuff.

Not that I dont appreciate Porsche.

There has to be something said for a car that normally has to be auctioned off to get a decent price for the car. The used car market for Porsches' is horrible. Great car, p1ss poor resale value.
