It feels like a cheap car, gear box is crap. I love the way it looks!
People stair at it like it is a rock star :shock:
the Sti is a better/faster car (in a straight line)
Can't argue with that...

And I guess you're right, for the money that you would spend on the EVO MR VFQ you should be able to get that performance out of an STI...but, not with a warranty intact. Which most people don't care about anyway, but having the car modded by the factory gives a small peace of mind. Of course If I did have that kind of cash to spend I'd have to buy a used Porsche 993 Turbo; might as well mod a boxer 6 AWD!
