When you say you don't get it till you drive one is an understatement. Owning a STi was also a childhood dream. I remember I was walking to a friend's house and seen a hawlk eye. He reveed it to down shift and ever since I've been in love with the ej motor. Now when I'm out driving and I see some kids that want to hear my car, I'm the one that down shifts and let them hear the beautiful ej rumble. The reaction is priceless and it puts a big smile on my face too.

This sounds exactly like how I fell in love with the STI. I was at a gas station with my mom and two STI’s pulled in revving while pulling up to the pump. Then they both hammered it when they drove off and I knew one day I wanted to own one! I’ll never sell mine. My daughter is in 5th grade and says everytime I pick her up from school in it all the kids talk about how cool her car is. It’s an absolute pleasure to own this car

Honestly I've had thoughts about selling my 21' STI over the last 2 months due to appreciation but I always end up dismissing it after truly thinking about it. Theres legitimately no newer car out there like the STI. The aesthetics, the aftermarket support, the raw driving feel, the character, the ancient EJ, the community, the heritage, etc. Yeah there are solid options like the GR corolla, 400z, Supra, Civic SI, but those cars just dont appeal to me like the STI does. At this point im planning on paying off the STI and then consider buying another car while keeping it. Thats truly the only option at this point lol

I’ve owned my ‘21 STi for 15k miles and about a year now. I love the raw driving feel, the sound of the Tomei/intake, the power is good, and it looks great. The wing makes me smile every time I see it in my rear view mirror. I hate the rattle trap of an interior that it has, how horrible the gas mileage is for a daily driver (ignore it for a fun vehicle, but mine is a daily) the stereo sucks, and the seats are super uncomfortable for someone with a bad back. All that being said, it’s a great car and I’m glad I got to experience it as it was one of my dream cars. With the current market, I ordered a new WRX and will be making a good chunk of money by trading the STi in. I’m hoping the WRX is 75-80% of the fun that the STi is, but in a more comfortable and efficient package. The cladding is also a bonus for me since it is going to be driven in upstate NY winters and on gravel roads. The STi is a fantastic car and I’d suggest that anyone thinking about owning one should do it.

@Lucas-nz8em 2 жыл бұрын

Well said. I couldn’t agree more. I have driven and continue to drive various higher hp new tech vehicles in my line of work, that still cannot provide the level of driving engagement my STI does. There is a reason many people who own these cars do wish to switch platforms. After owning several turbo Subarus over the years, I don’t intend to go elsewhere. There are a lot of people who try to bash the platform and they are often the ones who have never owned them. These cars are a freakin blast to drive and own.

I had a 18 STI that I had to get rid of because I wanted to buy a house, after I got my house it took me a year to recover from the purchase of my home (very expensive buy) lol None the less I was checking out Golf R Civic Type R even a F80 m3 to get back into the car scene, because I missed it when I had my STI. Well fast forward now I ended picking up my SW STI because the feeling of driving the car just so engaging compared to the other cars, which were really good probably better then the STI but just not as demanding as the STI. Enjoy your weekend at Wicked meet bro you're gonna have a blast specially just seeing all those crazy builds!

Every morning and everyday after work I have something great to look forward to. If I sold now and invested that money I could own a gtr in 5 years but I dont know if od even care about it then.
