wondering if the handling is sorted out like they claim???

 

No but I've seen a white one at a local lot. Seeing the sedan in person won't change your opinion of it whether you like or hate the looks in pics (I don't care for it myself). Check out Edmunds Inside Line where they test drove them and said that the changes are very subtle and aren't noticed unless you are driving hard on a track and some drivers couldn't even tell the difference between 2010 and 2011 back to back.

It's likely not going to outhandle an EVO X but will probably have slightly less understeer and body roll than the 08-10 cars. Hopefully a couple of magazines will re-do the head to heads.

 

I think it still has that revised garbage motor that can barely handle more than stage 2 power..

 

Well it's a Subaru and Subaru must be Japanese for 'rebuild engine' as they know engine failure.

 

The handling is better but most people are putting swaybars on anyway and that helps more than the 2011 changes. Swaybars alone seem to put to rest the understeer.

 

You both are ridiculous. lol

 

Cracking piston ring lands at stock power levels...That's what sounds ridiculous to me :P

 

I will agree with this, I almost got the STi until I drove the X... then it was allllll over

 

STy?

 

^ lol

 

yea, straight off a cliff...

 

I cant wait 2 see Top Gear get a hold of one and see what Clarkson thinks about it

 

If I remember right when they did the 2010 evo x vs 2010 sti he said something along the lines of it handles like a pig in high heels. lol

 

The only thing i saw,was its better looking than the hatchback....

 

To answer your question. No and it's slower to boot.
