actually the problem with the STI is the motor, it's not as strong as cast iron, i know it's reinforced but it's still not as strong
the transmission is where the STI pulls away from anything else it's strong as hell and will take major punishment

In all honesty i think the STI is about 10x hotter than the nsx... AWD as well i dont know how you can beat that... my friend has a sti and im looking into a WRX when I graduate in 2 years because right now I cant afford one with school but, I would def say keep the sti.

NSX's are very unique and nobody is questioning that but, its an older platform. There are more chances for problems being that you buy it from another person... also the STI has much more potential and if your from the northeast... the AWD helps in the shitty weather. I dont see why you would trade in a new STI for an old nSX with 60k+ miles. Personal Opinion

God help you if you trade a STI for a old ass NSX
I am willing to bet the person that made this comment has not driven both, and probably drives a 200,000 mile, beat-up, "old ass", automatic prelude, or something similar.
I am considering a STI for a daily driver, so I have driven both. STI is very nice, but not a great looking car.

sti looks like poop.
nsx looks like secks.
you want style? you cant go wrong with an nsx.
if anyone says the sti looks better, they are on crack.
grab a pic of an nsx and an sti, show a 10 year old kid. kid picks nsx. end o story.

He is not a 10 year old kid, and you have to be realistic. Obviously you see snow in the background, and NSX are not snow driving cars. I have drove a STI but never a NSX. It is common sense not to trade a 04 car for a like 92 car.
