When Import drivers get a slap in the face

[ttocs]

am I still the only one that still kinda laughs at the lack of style those 4 door cars have? SLap a big spoiler on it and a turbo and awd and suddenly it LOOKS cool? I cannot discount the performance on them, they are quick cars but they look like chit in my book... You could slap some stick-on pieces to an old camery or volvo and a spoiler to get the same shape/design. Just because they were made to go fast doesn't make them cool in my book. You can make ANY car fast but that just doesn't make it look cool. The 15 yr old looks of our stangs just stomp the hell out of the lack of style those boxes have.

But that's your personal opinion, I thikn the Veyron looks like hell, I think the McLaren F1 looks like $hit, other people may think they're the most amazing looking cars. I dont, but just because we like EVOs and STi's doesnt mean you have to bro. Dont hate on his car, he likes it, it's a clean car and he enjoys it. You dont drive one, so no worries there.

lol good story. Would you say the STi drives better than the Mustang? I know my Lexus sure as hell drives better than mine. I wish my Mustang was as nice to drive actually, I gotta work on that.

Does that not clog up some of the intercooler with paint? Specially if you do it urself? I thought some years STI came with the letters... but f*ck if i know

It shouldnt unless you're using some ridiculously thick paint. I painted the front intercooler on my SRT4 and was very careful to make sure it didn't get gummed up.

IRS.

IRS is not what I'm talking about. I drove an '04 Cobra, didn't notice any notable difference.

Taco is just a hater lol I like the car I could careless what anyone else thinks of it, especially internet based opinions.

Yeah it drives a ton better then the Cobra. The cobra is like a brick with 4 wheels but that's the sacrifice I made to make it a street strip car. Rides good enough on the street for a summer driver but for every day Id take the STI hands down. Not just due to the AWD it just rides really well

we just picked up an 05 sti for the wifes daily driver. it's like a go-kart! hit the gas it flies, stock brembos stop quick, and it corners. i still love my 95 gt more but, the sti can play in the snow and is hers.
