    Nice. Not a big fan of the look of the new STI.. Does it "grow" on you?

    Kinda. If I was to get one it would be the WRX. New engine/tech and cheaper for not much less performance loss from the STI.

    I would do WRX sedan with flush wing and black pack, but I'd probably still change the wheels

    This is the reason I still want an 04/05 forester xt 5 speed. Almost bought one before the 4runner. Still thinking about it eventually. Lighter than an sti, versatile fir a wagon, still the 2.5 turbo. Swap sti turbo and intercooler and have a damn fast sleeper.

    So when did SI drive become standard on WRX? And then ask the question is the STI worth it because you can get si drive in the wrx. Questions everyone should ask...

    I've been looking for a wrecked one for a while. I'd happily give up my sport hood and projectors to make the conversion.

    Let me know if you find a cheap paint place. I need to get my stock fenders and bumper painted. Not really looking for anything super pricey. hoping to keep it under $500 if possible lol.
