Yeah sure when u add an entire lip kit, diffrent hood, diffrent rims, lower it, alter the tailights, alter the head lights , change every scoop to carbon fiber, they tend to look pretty good lol

You don't buy an STi for it's looks...well, at least I didn't buy mine for the looks.

The new STIs and EVOs are a little pricey, but they're still amongst the best performance bargains out there. I love my 135 just as much as my STi, albeit for different reasons. I just wish BMW at least offered LSDs on these cars. Even the Chevy Cobalt SS has a LSD and it's a $20k FWD econo box.

And that car looks awesome. I wouldn't buy one though, too boy-racer for my tastes.

I love the STI - ha ha!

At any rate, when my lease is up, I'm getting back into one. I enjoyed my '05 STI so much more than my 335.

I'm a former Evo IX MR owner. I gave the new STI a shot when I took it for a test drive right before I sold my Evo, and I still didn't really feel convinced with the way it drove. It just wasn't for me. I mean I've always loved its MACHO personality, but the drive always made me feel disconnected.

Anyways, it looks good in the pics provided.

I've owned 3 STI's in the past, and they are fun cars. With that said, Subaru builds the worst pistons I've ever seen. I see '07-09 STI's & WRX's in my buddy's shop that have cracked ringlands all the time....even stock ones . Subaru needs to step up and include forged pistons in these cars. Most of the issues with these engines are from the excessively lean tune that's required to get emissions in line.
