Yeah I have no clue what the STI or WRX stand for and whatnot. I just want the one that looks like a rally car. I don't car about what's under the hood, hell I wouldn't even need that epic turbo or whatever it has in it.Dilbert_X wrote:
You don't want an STI, the base model Impreza is excellent value - same dynamics just a little less power - a lot cheaper and less likely to have been thrashed.-Sh1fty- wrote:
The Impreza wasn't going to be my first car, but then I saw that guy's post about one for £5000. I bet that thing was driven to an early grave for that price. If I can get a good one for $5000 and if I had the money than why not for a first car? I understand the crashing issue though.
No worries, I'm being smart about not buying what I can't afford. That's why I'm asking for a cheap STI if that's possible. Otherwise I was going to get a Corolla or a Focus or something. There's a Ford Focus for $3500 nearby that looks pretty good.
In summary:From September 2007 the Impreza range in Australia has been changed with models designated R, RX, RS and WRX.
R, RX and RS all share the same engine - a new 2.0 L boxer engine, with 110 kW (150 PS; 148 bhp) @ 6400 rpm and 196 Nm @ 3200 rpm.
The iconic WRX has largely unchanged engine power output of 169 kW (230 PS; 227 bhp) and 320 Nm from its 2.5 L engine. As with previous versions, there will only be a manual version of the WRX. The weight of the car also has been lightened (by approx. 22.7 kg (50 lb)) to just 1400 kg, and gives the WRX a 0-100 km/h time of 5.8 seconds. In contrast, curb weight of the standard Impreza model is approx. 27.2 kg (60 lb) heavier, although still lighter than the WRX trim level.

The STI is lower spec than the WRX above that would be the special homologation models.DrunkFace wrote:

The current model Outback is very similar to the 2005 Forester though.Well it wasn't an sti, but just a standard wrx.-Sh1fty- wrote:

That's why the sti is about 50% more expensive, has 15% more power, stiffer suspension, wider tyres and a more aggressive body kit. Cause Subaru just loves making their lower spec cars better then the higher spec ones.Cheeky_Ninja06 wrote:

Is that for a younger driver too?Hurricane2k9 wrote:
2007. That's including comprehensive and collision coverage though. For the bare bones it'd only be like $60. If you own the car then you don't need comp and collision but if it's financed then you do.
