Too similar, not much more exciting despite the wait. There should have been something more hardcore about this version if anything. Factory coilovers, Recaros, and more power from the engine, and perhaps a stiffer chassis.


...and a roofscoop.

I can say that about pretty much ALL the Japanese automakers (although in Subaru's defense, I DO like the updated WRXs). The FT86 couldn't come quicker.....and I'm not even all that into that car!

Yeah I could say that about everybody but Nissan. And if the Audi TT RS doesn't come stateside they will be on my dissapointed list also.

I don`t think it`s bad at all. I`m liking the fenders on the sedan.

Mebbe because I'm old, but I like it. The STi seems to have grown up a little.

i liked the fenders so much, i bought mine 2 years ago.

if someone were to ask me which one to buy now, i would ask if they were planning on modding. yes, then get the wrx and use the money you saved on suspension first and power next. no, then get the LGT. if SOA offered a forrester XTI or legacy wagon STI, i'd sell the jetta wagon.

I think they meant all four wheels combined, not each one.
