Well, it depends on what you want to do with your car, the R from the factory comes with a radio..hahah...but seriously, it's a nice ride, but i'm not big on the way rally cars handle on the street, and in addition a 30K price tag before dealer add ons, I think I'd rather a 350Z or an RX8 when it hits the market. The STi is a grocery getter with toys, not a sports car, keep that in mind when you go to look at it. Fast, maybe, but never as much fun to drive as an ITR....

Later,
