Hi everyone, first post here ;-)
Got the new once since about 3 months... better than the previous ones, better feeling on the steering wheel, more comfy but yet more reactive and can be a lot better for almost nothing (a decat pipe and a flash = something way different ... used to record 6.1sec on the 0 to 62mph and with only those little mods that cost less than 500EUR in parts you get it to 4.9sec).
I did add the 6pot calipers of the CS400 on it but I don't think it needs more (unless you want to do a full racing setup).

Thanks ;-)
I like those STI but I might sell it for something different as a daily (JDM or GERMAN is still the question for now but it has to be AWD and have 6 pistons helped by 2 turbos lol).
For it's price the STI is still a crazy good machine !!!

Well, I would have the M3 for the "nice interior" days 
I just want something fun for the winter that ACTUALLY moves in the snow!

S5 are nice but not as good as a "sport" car (I'd rather drive an S5 as a daily though, way more confortable, more room in it for your friends, quieter, ...).
RS4 or RS5 would be better on every point but the price would be a lot different.

Drove one yesterday. Very nice car and would make one heck of a DD/Extra track toy for those wet days 
. I thought the car would feel bigger then it did after reading the reviews, the car felt tight and nimble as a rally breed car should. Also I am much happier with the interior/exterior look since it does not sport as much boy racer as the previous STi sedans. Subaru supplies a great product and support is spot on. I am sure I would be confident and entertained with one of these on a daily basis. Good luck with your decision.
