sassafrass! ::edit:: Is that the new evo? it looks like it, if so it should be upwards of 300 horsies no 230-240 unless they are taking the subaru-ish approach and making 3 models. (i.e impreza 2.5 rs non turbo // wrx awd turbo // wrx sti)

its a middle model. just like subbie. Lancer GTS, lancer Rally-art, Lancer Evo. looks pretty good, much better then the new WRX. the rumor is that its an Evo9 with a new wrapper

I beg to differ, the new wrx is "ugly" persay, but the new sti is hella dope.

the old was nothing to look at anyway. but 300hp and awd tend to act as "beer goggles"

are u kidding me?

The old style im talking is all the styles between 04-07were hot as shiz. It looked like a rally car...yeah it drew a lot of attention but it was damb hot....lol i bought an 07but backed out of it because they jacked my payment up to high...mmm god i wish i bought it but it was for the best because it would have been a burden on my finances...it was blue with the gold BBS rims .....In the next 2-3years im def getting one either an 07 or a new one....

its not that hard....

look at the tire rotation marks (on sidewall of tire)
spokes that bow out more go in the front,
spokes that are flatter go in the back.

if you look at the inside of the wheel, itwo of them should have 35 and two should have 45. the 35's go in the rear, and the 45's go in the front.

300 horse's acts as beer goggles?? You're out of your mind, Granted the sti does look pretty dumb with the big wing but the car itself is sexy as hell. As for the big wing and big hood scoop, they are both functional towards the performance aspects of the car so I don't see a fault there. You can't tell me you wouldn't own one if you could afford it because the evo stock for stock can't touch it performance wise and its been proven time and time again. Aside from the corvette, its the best bang for the buck out there. Don't hate on the car just because everyones got "beer goggles" on because of AWD and 300hp. Im not sure if you've ever driven one but its one hell of a ride. Ask Jim I took him for a blast in my brothers and scared him ____less. I'm not knocking your opinion because everyone has one but the comment about "beer goggle" is completly off.

This car is pure sex. Brand new STI. *picture taken from www.tristatetuners.com username CarbonIS*
