Let the horsepower wars begin
So, all of us who in too deep to sell/trade in our WRXs for an STi are now faced with a problem - especially if we take our cars to the track. The STi will render our cars obsolete unless we go down the "big power" route. I will be forced to put a 2.5 turbo in my car within the next 18 months to keep pace with these guys. I will also have to upgrade my tranny. I reckon thats going to be in excess of $10K right there.
I'm pissed off. Prices - if the STi lists at $34000 plus Ca sales tax thats up to about $37000 plus a dealer mark up...that makes an even $40K

Too funny. There will always be someone faster than you in a car more expensive than yours. Always. Your logic is hysterical. |

Whoever is running that site decided to upgrade their servers over the weekend. Well, duh.... they couldn't have picked a dumber time to do that right after the intro of the new U.S. LanEvo when you know the forums would be the busiest. |
