Default Your opinion on WRX STi

Hey,

I know everyone is hardcore Honda/Acura fans here, but what do you honestly think about the Subaru WRX STi? Even if you havent had any experience driving one, what do you think about it?

Its a fun car overall and they are great handling vehicles.

I am not a fan though...interior feels cheap, cabin noise, rough ride, and everyone and their grandma has to have one or thinks they are fast just because they have one. Its getting worse than GSR drivers used to be.

my opinion is that its an ok car. I mean its nothing to have an orgasm over, but dont get me wrong, it does have its advantages. The signature sound sends a chill to ya. The clutch is more stiff, tight steering...awesome car to drive!

overly mechanical at times, making the car a complete no brainer to drive ... which isn't a bad thing at all. i can only imagine how much fun this car would be in the snow.

i honestly love the look too. white w/ bronze rims is my favorite combo.

It's a great car, but the owners are usually stupid.

I saw several of them tearing it up at the track yesterday. Very impressive.

Driven one a couple of times. I liked it a lot. Needless to say, it has a good amount of power and it's not hard to drive a little too fast in one. It is really noisy though, and for $30k it lacks the refinement of other cars that you would see in that price range.
