Thanks Andmaxx:

This car will be used for some commuting, some grocery getting and some fun. Makes me want to get back into gymkhana again.

It's a real feel-good article - makes me feel even better about the STi!

Cheers, Phun

Sweet! That is a very favorable article.

Um waitaminute now, I thought the WRX had a higher boost (~14.5)than the STi? In that article it says that the WRX has 12.5 compared to the STi's 13.5. What gives?

Finally an article that favors the STi over the EVO, though it seems like they got some of their facts wrong. It seems to suggest you can get gunmetal gray for free...unless they mean silver. To me, gunmetal is anthracite colored.

Did you also notice the consumer reviews? hjkhl claims that he did an 8.7 quarter mile time. IMPOSSIBLE. Not without some MAJOR mods. He probably got in the wrong lane at the track and did the 1/8 mile and thought he did the 1/4 :lol:

You are wrong thats what gives STi has always had higher boost

Although I thought the numbers were 14.5 for the STi and 13.5 for the WRX?

By gunmetal grey, I'm sure they are using the term that SOA was using for the silver wheels. We tried telling people a long time ago that gunmetal was actually silver as far as Suburu's color description went.

Thank you CloNeGTS...I've read that in some threads in here...

Neisius...I just live north of you in Hawthorne, don't make me come down there! j/k :lol:
