Haha I was surprised no one else had posted it...
Just drove my brothers new 3.6R and woooow its leagues better than his old 2.5i...leather interior, sunroof, harmon kardon and the motor goes so smoothly...awesome low end and it sounds pretty nice too..I think it'll pull on my wrx...makes me want to swap a 3.6 into my wrx...no more turbo lag haha

I might be keeping this blue bit<h! Frakin rollercoaster of emotions with all the house stuff, I realized that if I pay it off and don't have car payments i'll have more money for mods and maintenance. I try not to get attached but I've done so much work to her. I just have to except that bugeye's(ej20's in general) are slow as ish compared to sti's/new wrx's. Maybe i'll buy an access port and stage 1 this thing to hold me over for awhile haha

7.6?? Damn that's way slower than I had imagined...andno don't get an accord...while 3.6 might not have a fast 0-60 its still awd boxer...way better than honda
Wonder why its so much slower than GT? Roughly same power...probably heavier and cuz its AT

Never Crossed my mind, just messing with Luis, I think it's slower because it's auto(like you said) they probably launched the GT. Only reason I considered the 3.6R is because it burns 87 and it's auto so the wifey could drive it if needed(tried to teach her to drive stick so many times,useless LOL)

I saw a concept drawing of what a wagon would've looked like and it was SICK! I have been considering the wrx hatch but I kinda want something more luxurious or "grown up"... It's weird it seems like an STI is more grown up than a wrx to me, out of my price range though( I hope to spend less than 28k ) and I want less than 10k miles if I buy used!
