Drove an 06 STI Today….





Drove by the Dealership and decided to give one a try. VERY QUITE but then again my Evo is very loud by comparison. Believe it or not I thought the shifting wasn’t too precise. Plasticy although VERY short, but the gears changes weren’t as defined. Also the Ratios were VERY short, had to shift and shift. Car pulled very well, didn’t feel like a turbo car at all. Handling was good too. It was a VERY smooth ride but it seems that I would be rowing my brains out.



The back seats were SMALL, OMG the Evo is bigger by far, more room. The Tach on the STI was awesome, everything as it is described to be. The interior was nice and the seats were just seats, no real support but looked kewl. All in all a great looking and driving car.





Then the sales guy offered me $15,000 for my Evo and I told him to go F U C K himself, the End.

 

Damn...$15K, what the hell was he thinking???

 

He told me that's all I could get and that's it. I laughed and walked out.

 

you are pretty much right on when i test drove an STI 6 months ago...
What a jacka$$ salesman though

 

you should have said ok, give me the STI for $25,000, that would've been about fair

 

HAHAHAHHA.... Tell the salesman to get bent! He's lucky that someone is actually looking at that car! They're the one who should be thankfull and gives out incentive to you for taking that hideous thing for a drive. =P

 

unfortunately, most salesman are just dumb.

 

I wish they would import the Spec C STi.

That's the only Subaru I would trade my car in for.

 

And a FQ-400 will probably just as good as the Spec C *if* the import it

 

I was pretty impressed with the '06 STi when I tried it, but it was no match for the Evo.

 

to my knowledge, the fq-400 will down right destroy the spec C, but i could be dead wrong. can someone enlighten me? thanks.
