Meh, me no likee da new ones at all, they're going a totally different route with them imho. So how'd it feel compared to your recently tuned 05 one (which is supposedly hella fast now)? I should test drive one too just for the hell of it! I know they have hella WRX/STis there & more on the way!

That white WRX in the background looks nice too. The '11 sedans are really growing on me.

Honestly bro..I was a bit disappointed..my 05 felt so much better..sales guy thought he knew so much..lol I was teaching him a thing or two..previous STI's are better..if your buying new your just better off with a new WRX non sti..can't beat $25,000 for 265hp..I think theirs more potential with it..

See everyone, don't say i told ya so haha. They're for a totally different market now, but after reading what's suppose to be coming in 2014 there just might be some hope after all (fingers crossed). I test drove an 09 WRX when it switched to 265 hp, it was alright, pretty fast but not as fast as my 06 STi imho. Yeah those car salesmen talk mad bull**** but never really know anything, all they wanna do is sell the damn thing no matter what. The new STis are "bloated luxurious rally" nowadays, far from the real glory years! You want all that Limited crap, go buy a freaking Beamer lol. Sh*t, i want my car R.A.W.-Rally All da Way!

Am I the only one that whenever they hear the term 'bro' I feel like I'm in the middle of Fast and the Furious?
