We know you. If someone tossed you the keys to a spanking-new 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STI for the weekend, you'd make a beeline for the nearest winding road leading into the mountains. So would we. But would you also bring along your wife, two kids and mother-in-law, all prone to carsickness? Not
if you could avoid it. But we couldn't. Such is married life. Besides, Mom was the one with keys to the cabin.

| i think the best at ... ( 3 weeks ago by mafioz3) |
| i think the best at this time is to get either 07 sti, or the new 09 wrx...... 08 sti is way more expensive !! 09 wrx is cheaper, now faster, ohh and the servicing, break change, and other stuffs are way cheaper for wrx, ohhh don't forget the Insurance is expensive for STI, especially if ur under 22 or 23 !! |

| What the hell ... ( 2 weeks ago by WeekendWarrior1210) |
| What the hell happened to the Brembo Brakes? |
| The brembo's are ... ( 2 weeks ago by shinobi594) |
| The brembo's are still there... It just now has STi badged caliper covers now instead of the gold brembo badged ones. It actually only slightly bigger than the older ones but braking is alot better now. 60-0 in 106ft compared to 115ft from last model. |
| Yes the 2009 WRX ... ( 2 weeks ago by dsm2xtreme) |
| Yes the 2009 WRX makes 265hp now, Goodbye to the STI sales! 90% of those who buy either a WRX or STI will never road race them, and all of the expense of the custom suspension goes to waste. At least they recognized that and increased the HP of the WRX. |
| Keep in mind that ... ( 2 weeks ago by shinobi594) |
| Keep in mind that that a 2009 WRX STILL slaloms below 70MPH, and STILL has a skidpad of below .90g... When it comes to modding, the STi is a better choice simply because of a stouter 6spd, DCCD, Si Drive, Dual AVCS, more rigid chassis, and a wider stance. If all you care about is 0-60 and 1/4 times, (in which case, the STi is STILL faster - 4.5 0-60 w/ 13.3 sec 1/4 mile), then the WRX should be enough. But an enthusiast knows that there is more to a car than just 0-60 acceleration. |
| do your homework ... ( 2 weeks ago by racingfilm1) |
| do your homework coz sti owners knows what sti inside and out. you shouldnt compare sti to a wrx coz your looking clueless right now. |
| My friend has an 04 ... ( 2 weeks ago by dsm2xtreme) |
| My friend has an 04' STI. He has never drag raced it (on a track) nor auto crossed it. I am sure there are tons of people just like him that own them and don't take them to competitive events. Thus negating the need for all the extra bells and whistles offered in the STI vs the WRX. If you think thats clueless thats your own conclusion ;-). |
| you guys are both ... ( 2 weeks ago by scenicrearview) |
| you guys are both idiots for comparing an 08 sti to an 09 wrx. remember waiting for this nbewest body style for the wrx to be revealed? i'm sure subaru has some tricks up there sleeves |

| The US 93 octane ... ( 1 day ago by attelk) |
| The US 93 octane fuel is higher/same than 98 octane European one. The measurement is different, from wikipedia 95 octane EU fuel is equivalent of 90-91 octane in US. |
