just saying hi and introducing myself. I am here to learn as much as i can about these cars to make an educated decision on which one to buy next year. in the last 2 and 1/2 years i have been through a 00' honda prelude w/ a couple bolt-ons(loved that car), a 04' sti and am now driving a 20th ann. edition gti. hopefully ill buy an evo and just keep it. lol

 

so far im leaning toward a wicked white IX MR. do you think i would be able to get one a year from now though?

 

most likely not... the nines are starting to become very hard to find..depending what your dealerships carry.. they are about to ..or already have stopped production on them..

 

Which car do you like the best? I had an 04 Sti too

 

Welcome

Lots-o-threads on which year to get and which kind (MR, RS, GSR).

Yep - used.

 

well the sti was definitely the fastest and best handling and sounded the best. a close second is the prelude. i loved that car. it was pretty quick with not much into it and was the best handling fwd i ever drove. my gti is fun. im unhappy with the handling though. it is pretty fast i will give it that but it doesnt handle well enough and i need awd wich is why im looking for an evo. i have been reading about what IX to get and so far i dont want an RS, the GSR with the SSL package i like because of the sunroof. but chances are i will only get springs so the billsteins in the MR seem like a good thing and i like 6 speeds for some reason but im hearing bad things about the strength of the MR tranny...and if i cant get a IX next year i think i will cry. i just got this gti a month ago and it would be weird to sell it so soon and i would take a loss.
