ive noticed some of you guys like cars a lot, and this kind of car seems to be extra popular.

earlier today i was on my way back home when i spotted this parked outside my house.

kinda cool eh? from the way the guy drove it around it seemed the gas pedal was quite temperamental, and it had a nitro button on the steering wheel (almost typed handlebar...)

Like the car, but I'll pass on the paintjob. I prefer stealth, 300+HP on the inside but looks like grandmas grocery getter on the outside.

I WANT it, in matte black of course. Cops around here pay WAY too much attention to loud colors and graphics.

amen...the wing on the new STI might as well have some flashing neon lights on it that says "pull me over"!!

that "nitro" button is actually a switch to activate a system that sprays H20 (i guess its H20) on the air-air intercooler. That is a OEM item too. the wrx sti is soo bad ass!

This is an absolute travesty, also, not an STI most likely, unless he swapped a standard wrx wing on. While this is not a bad idea, I doubt this guy would think that any wing was too big. He got an sti scoop and badge and is posing.

It is a STI. the front brakw calipers are a dead give away and Im thinking that is a wrap on the car, not paint. no one paints cars for adv purposes these days, especially on a 30,000 car.

Doesn't the STI come with an "i" badge overseas?

Youre right about the wrap, but im still not convinced its and STI. All the 6 piston brembos ive seen on STI's were gold, I cant even tell if those are six piston and the certianly dont look gold, but I supose they could be dirty and I could be wrong. Maybe Im just in denial that any STI owner would want to do this to their car, but I still think its just a wrx.

I drove one the other day and I was hooked. Not as fast as my 87 5.0 GT Mustang with 330hp but the STI handles waaaay better. You cant beat AWD.

After the test drive I asked the salesman if Subaru made a bike rack for the STI. You should have seen the look he gave me.

I just bought a 04 F150 supercrew so I have to wait a little while till I get the STI. I just put 33s on it and a leveling kit. I would have liked 35s but they void the warrenty according to my local Ford dealership. Ya I know they cant do that but, if they say that, you know it would be pain to get anything fixed if something happened.
