"BTW - speaking as prob the ONLY guy on this board who actually drives a STI every day - I would pay up to $45,000.00 fo rthe STI easy"
hey Al, there's actually a few ppl that have driven an STI on this board, and a few(me included) have been doing it longer than you!
but you are so right dude! Driving an STI is a life-affirming experience, everytime i get outta my car i have these goofy grin that i cannot get off my face....

Canadian STi price
Talking to the salesmen at the Toronto auto show the price for the STI will be $47,000 to $50,000 CDN. (The base WRX is $35,000 here).
However they are sold out. Deposits have been placed on all the available 2004s for Canada.
According to the Mitsubichi salesmen the STI will not materialize and everone will be getting their refund back.

Mitsu Comment = FUD

That's funny - the dealer called on Friday and verified my color and wheel choice. He said to expect delivery in late May - exactly when the normal 2004 starts shipping...
47,000.00 CAD Canada Dollars = 31,456.68 USD United States Dollars
1 CAD = 0.669291 USD 1 USD = 1.49412 CAD

mistsu salesman translation:
"i cannot give you any reason to buy my evo rather than the sti so i will pretend the sti is not coming"
that mitsu saleman is just peaved that the new sti has stolen all their evo glory...

It's the Subaru salesman translation I was not impressed with:
If you want this hot car this year be ready to pay through the nose.
(I can wait for a 2005 if they don't give me the price I want. My 290 HP Talon still has a lot of life left , just no warrenty)

I don't agree that the EVO has lost it's appeal. It's going to be a fantastic automobile as will the STi. The EVO is down on power in comparison but it's also lower in price. It's handling may be better than the STi, we'll have to wait and see. I don't think Mits will have trouble selling all of the EVO's it brings over.
To some, the EVO is also a better looking car than the WRX/STi.
Also, the engine in the EVO is one solid piece and is known for being capable of extreme HP/torque output and takes nicely and easily to modification.

dont get me wrong WoRX, i do believe the evo will be one bad assed car when it arrives. i've always liked the styling and from what i've heard the evo more than holds its own in the handling dept. in fact i've heard from many that its just a better tarmac car, but not by much.... regardless, the fact that both are coming is great as the competition between the two is what spawned such and awsome series of EVOs and STIs in the first place. its finally awsome to be an auto enthusist in the US again!
i just thought it was very rectal of that salesman to insist the sti wont be coming, when all signs point to its coming....especially SOA itself saying that.

That IS stupid and rectal. Too many salesman don't even know their cars let alone the competition.

"this is so sweet, the redline is at 9000rpm and whenever you switch on the car, the tach meter will swing to the redline for showing off the power
From the subaru website, the specs are impressive and i'm pretty sure mitsubishi regretted every decision they have made about their Evo, maybe they'll fire their marketing analyst who said all the funky computer system wont be profitable at this side of the world.
GO Subaru!
the question is, to get it this year or wait for one year???"
hey. i thought the sti redlines at 7000rpm?? and id get the sti this year.. but i cant ,i have to get it in 2005, which may actually b better but id rather not wait even though i have to. will you wait it out with me till 2005 fellow subie? hehe so i at least know some one is out tthere suffering the wait with me =) hehehe..

9000 rpm?? Will it have a Vtec engine?
I don't think the STi will rev to 9000. Maybe 7000 and the power will be made at lower revs. Nothing wrong with that, but let's be realistic
