Feels like I got shafted today. Granted, I was on the top floor which didn't get much traffic. I didn't see any judge stop by my car. The judging was supposedly done by separate judges who had their own class. After a judge looked over the car, they would put a small sticker with their initials on the windshield. I was by my car the entire show and nothing. A friend of mine had asked one of the officials why my car didn't have a sticker for judging and he said that "they ran out of stickers" I think there may have been only like maybe 8 other cars in the class. Besides that, the car which took first in class, had obvious scratches on the bumper and the front lip didn't fit properly on the car. I'm not saying that I should've won, but I don't understand how a car with obvious visual defects would rate first in class.

Venting aside, this was the first car show that I put my car in. I actually had a good time despite what I previously said. Felt good to have people stop by and enjoy my car.

Btw, who VIP's a STI? Just saying...

That would be me. I VIP'd an STI because it's different. And I'm sorry my bumper scratches offended you.

Why does it matter if its on an STi opposed to a WRX? So you're saying that it would be ok if it was on a 2009 WRX instead of her 2009 STi

Don't worry, I'll be sure to put you in my will. "And I leave my STI to the guy on I-Club who hates it, so he can turn it into his idea of a nice car." People need to learn to lighten up!

And you need to learn the difference between a race bred car and one that is meant to be VIP'D. With your logic you would VIP a NASCAR.

I think STI girl is just trying to make a point that it is her car and she can do whatever she wants to it. Everyone is entitled to opinion, so I respect both sides.


BTW if you don't mind could I be in the will, I wouldn't mind a VIP STI lol.
