God Damn.... STi with wrong tires is worth more then my WRX...
WRX's will always be slow POS's know matter what you do.



On a side note. I do care about resale value. Not that I could ever sell my car for what I have into it. But for the fact that the cheaper our cars get the more Honduh they become.

I really do think that as long as you are safe. Do what you want. Your car is a part of who you are. Who else cares...... We are all out of high school..

Although if you do the math, TECHNICALLY, the depreciation from all my damage should've made my car worth less. But all the buyers I had didn't believe so. But I mean what do they know right? We can only rely on you "functional proper" folks to determine how safe, reliable, and valuable our cars are.
I bet if it was
Same year wrx/sti
same mileage

a wrx would sell for more than your sti did
