Hey everyone! I'm a new guy here in Northern VA. I have not gotten my SUBIE yet only because I need help. I love all STi's. I cant decided between the hatch or not older models. I love them all!!! Any input from any STi owners would be awesome. This is my dream car and I need help on deciding what way to go!!!!

 

ultimately its your decision. what are you looking for?
-extra room for "junk"...hatch
-sportier look (imho)...sedan
-which front end is your favorite? any sti will be a great car...
-money tight? older model = cheaper.

good luck finding what you are looking for, no matter what way you go, you will love it.

i had an 03 that i loved, and at the time was the only body style i liked...
the 04/05 grew on me, now i love it
i didnt like the 06/07 grille, then it grew on me. now i love it.
i hated the "mazda3" hatch 08-10 when it was released... now i own one...so i guess you could say i love it.

 

Welcome.

 

Thanx! the only thing I dont like on the hatch is the grill other then that i have some issues credit wise but i just got a new job working for the government on a long term contract. I can quickly save 5 grand for a down payment and fix my credit for a few months before i get it. It would take about 5-6 months so buy winter time I should have it. But I love all STi's but getting one used worries me i dont what it modded nor driven hard...

 

08 sti is very practical. I love my car to death, although its a bit hard to find mods since its a new model, ITS STILL BEAUTIFUL

welcome to i-club

 

Welcome to i-Club.
Definitely purchase a Subaru.

 

Well i have decided that I am going to find me an 08 by xmas this will be a present to myself! But it so has to be an STi. It seems like it would hold a big guy like me better then the sedan. I think of it this way if I fit in a 93 honda prelude I should be good in a 4 door hatch.

 

Congrats on the pick! Keep us posted with your upcoming STi. And when you do get it, TAKE SOME PICTURES!

Once again welcome to i-club!



This is my car, hopefully you get a white one because WHITE is the way to GO! (haven't done much to it though LOL)

 

Yeah keep us updated and let us know how it go's.
Definitley share some pics.

 

Yea im very excited today is my last day smoking as well every penny i can put aside to get my RIDE!!!! Now to get advice on color, I like black but yet white is so sexy. I dont plan on doing too much to it just a cobb stage 2, down pipe, lip kit, coil over and wheels, I am going to keep the stock wheels for winter use here because in NOVA roads can suck when it snows (just means more fun in the WRX). I can see it now White with carbon fiber hood, carbon fiber lip. I do like the chargespeed kits but i have had enogh bad experiances with fiberglass kits (bomex integra).

Thank you all for the warm welcome and AlanNgo that ride looks SICK man!

 

I always liked white but,I'm biased though.

 

Yea I understand that, I really dont care about what color i get just as long as its an STI. either way it will be sexy~!
