i was looking at the new 2015 sti's and was wondering what is yours guys and girls opinion on it

 

I love my 2015, but I stuck with the WRX Limited, the wife vetoed the STI due to it being too stiff. If you're thinking you want one, you want one. Handling is amazing, good power, interior is nice, and I happen to like the looks.

 

I'd wait to see if they release the new motor for the STi.

 

I test drove 2015 STI and here are some thoughts:

Best handling _stock_ STI for sure

I don't think that it's too stiff although it might be a bit stiffer than a stock EVO X. But both are not as stiff compared to my STI, so it's all relative.

Best STI interior compared to previous years

Exterior is subjective. I still think that GR hatchback is the best looking STI but that's just me.

Very nice steering compared to all previous STIs. Still not EVO-sharp but very nice.

Two things that kind of disappointed me - seats and old ej257. Seats are _slightly_ better than before but that's about it. This car needs a better drivers seat at least as an option.
EJ257 is dated. They retuned it though and it's more like COBB OTS Stage1 maybe a bit less aggressive. Still feels good! Hopefully they also addressed pistons but we will know it after a year or so

Just go and testdrive it and decide for yourself!
