Re: Any WRX/STi owners out there?

As I think more about it I have to wonder if getting the STi is worth the extra ~$10k. In all honestly, I will rarely, if ever drive the car on a track (nearest one is in pretty sad shape) so I can't say the added performance of the STi will ever be used to its potential but the 14 year-old in me keeps saying I neeeeed it.

Anyone with a WRX wish they had gotten the STi? Anyone with an STi have been happy with the WRX instead?

the current WRX is faster than the STi in a straight line, but the STi transmission can handle more power and the suspension is better. chances are, you won't get the STi's added benefits unless you track it.

take your chances on ringland failure with either, or get an Evo
