Does anyone know if the STI will come in wagon?? I am looking to get a STI, and I want it in wagon..... please educate me. thanks

 

I'd rather get the wagon also, but any STi will do. I wonder why they didn't make the rear seats (in the sedan) fold down. The armrest pullout is a bit impractical. Oh, well.

 

Because the STi is meant to be a racecar for the street. Thats why there is no standard radio, the glass is thinner, etc. this car is all about saving weight where ever possible. The STi is not meant to be the haul stuff around car, it's meant to be the (for lack of a better term) the poormans racecar.

 

Well if it's a racecar for the street then in my mind there's nothing wrong with hauling stuff in a sti. I know mine is going to spend more time on the road than on the race track so it will definitely be put to practical use on occasion.

I don't know about the latest JDM Spec STi but earlier generations have all included wagon versions, so it's a shame we won't be seeing those here.

 

What I meant was that they are not really meant for the street. The idea is that most of the people buying these things will be rallying them and racing them. The only reason that they are coming through dealerships is so that different sanctioning bodies recognize them as cars that fit the rules.

 

why wagon?

must be a large family to trully utilize the marginal space.

maybe for a dog for something

 

Personally I don't think the majority will be rallied or raced apart from the occasional autocross. But that's pure speculation on my part.

 

Pretty handy for those Ikea trips..

 

a honda civic is a poor man's race car

 

a Honda Civic should not even be classified as a car. It should be a go-cart, no wait those are more fun too. A civic should be considered a giant plastic paper-weight.
