Just a simple poll to find out what age groups are going for this car and who can afford them.

 

I am 20 years old and a full time student at a university as well as planning to go onto post graduate studies. I am buying the STI after the initial rush(hopefully in the winter or next spring) I am paying 50% my parents are loaning me the other 50% which I have to pay them back.

 

old thread ....

 

Old thread, yes. But this one is in poll form.

 

What else do we have to do until May 1, debate the amount of oxygen in 'air'?

33 yrs/old / Leasing / Auto-X & daily driver / will have a dedicated car seat!

Hey, are any of you giving any though to installing a roof rack for bikes, boards or kayaks?

No roofrack etc. I'd get an Outback for that sort of thing. Any more thought on the G35/STi decision?

 

Why not?

Its a 'Rally Car'.
Having my moutain bike (Trek) on the roof won't work?
How about my super hi-perf road bike (also Trek)?
I see loads of M3's & 330i sedans with racks.

I was going to TD the G35 this weekend but I hurt my upper back Friday evening (pinched nerve) and have been taking it easy until today when I could visit the chiropractor.

I'll try again later this week.
Today is an even numbered day though so at the monet I'm pro STi. Ask again tommorow for pro G35 talk.

I will def use it the STI for transportation of my TREK...but maybe a regular thule trunk rack...but dont know yet...might scratch some paint and depreciate the value

 

Don't go with Thule.
I'm not harshing Thule and I have been using their equipment for over a decade and have sets on my SUV and Legacy sedan, but the trunk mounts will and do mar your paint.
My sister in law found out the hard way on her new Corolla.

Look into Saris as your solution for temporary/trunk mounts of bikes. Click here!

Good luck...
