an FSTi would be awesome, though.

"I reckon so", as the Outlaw Josie Wales might have put it.

I'm glad you think it a good estate car, that's what I want. The Sti has a faster steering rack and tighter suspension, so that takes some of the sloppiness out of the driving. In addition it has the close ratio six speed box, and the engine makes 265 or so, and can be boosted up to 300 ish without major expense, probably.

I will have a look for a nice black one, the blue ones are a bit in your face, bling wise.
