Meh. Tries to jam too much retro from too many elements into one car.

And it's $250K.

Give me that money and I'll take any old classic muscle and turn into something that'll eat that thing's lunch.

Hell, I'll make two. Or three. With money to spare for fuel.

Post by: Psybin on Wed, 15 January 2014, 13:28:38: Yea, there is a 50+ page thread on NASIOC with all the fanboys crying about it.
I've been waiting all year to see what the new STI was going to bring, doesnt seem worth the sticker price now.

Learning that the new WRX STI, which goes on sale in April, is powered by the same EJ-series flat-four that’s in the outgoing STI sucked the wind out of our excitement sails in a major way

That's a little disappointing. Especially since they put a new motor in the WRX. Ah well.
Title: Re: CaR pRON .. .
Post by: Psybin on Wed, 15 January 2014, 13:38:41: Thats the thing, the STI could be a repeat of the 2008 WRX. One year after inital release an all new engine comes out for the line. Plus I really dont like how it looks at all, maybe its better in person.. ?

I'm going to go look at some 2014 Evolutions this weekend, its kind of an old style but pretty proven. I'm just tired of my car and ready to get back into something more nimble and fun.

anyway sorry off original topic.

Entirely possible. I'm a big fan of the new look myself. I may put the 2015 wrx back on my next car list unless they price it much higher than current year model.

To the topic at hand...

My eyes, my poor eyes! In my opinion, that car is one of the top three ugliest cars ever made. I guess some genres of pRON are not to everyone's taste.
