i think that's one of the reasons i'm looking to get an STi - the braking is phenominal. when i got the SVX, i had to completely adjust my driving after driving the 928. it didn't even have the Big Red "hand of God" brakes, but it would stop that 3500lb car like it hit a brick wall! imagine what the brakes are like on that 911 in the photo! big acceleration is fun, but handling and braking is equally as fun! i miss it.

60-0 braking distance :

Ferrari Enzo (109ft)
Saleen S7 (127ft)
McLaren F1 (125ft)
Subaru STi (114ft) not too shabby!
