I have made it official. Put my STI up on the Auto trader in GA. IF anybody knows someone who wants it then let me know. I had an 03 coupe and regret getting rid of it ever since. Can't wait to get my 08 coupe. Out with the old... In with the new :hsdance:

What did you not like about the STi, other than it being the ugliest thing ever.

Congrats on an awesome decision. Good luck on selling your vehicle.

Hun6, the Pontiac Aztec took offense to that comment! :rolleyes:

Amen to that. I still can't help laughing whenever I see one. Come to think of it, I haven't seen one in a while. Maybe they're all hiding(or have already fallen apart). :D

I kinda think the STI looks sharp, a tad ricey but sharp. Especially the ones with the rear spoiler and hood scoop.

My thing about the STi with hood scoops, racing stickers, gold rims, extremely loud exhaust, and gigantic spoilers, is you can't be a 40 year old man and drive one. Now if you're like 16-25 thats pretty fitting. The car is not bad looking, and it meets the expectations of the rally-racer crowd.

Same here, Skyline. I traded up my 03 coupe for a 06 M35. Love the M, but really wish I would have kept my coupe instead. It was soooo much fun to drive...6 speeds...the sounds of the exhaust w/ the windows down...if i think about it long enough, actually brings a tear to my eye! :)

Oh well...atleast I now have a car I can use easily w/ a babyseat (gulp! we find out this week if it's a boy or girl....pls, be a boy!!!!)

Dont really have any complaints other then the overly stiff suspension is not a good thing for the roads here in the south. It was great out in Cali. but I can't stand the jarring. Plus it will only cost me less then 200 buck a month more to have a new G. And on the comment on styling of the STI. It's all form following function with this car. It's not a luxury sports car. It's a street legal race car. Up until 04 the car did not even come with a radio or AC.

i agree that the societal archetype begs a 40yr old man drive an E320 diesel bluetech station wagon (does such a beast exist?), but i think one should drive whatever the he** one wants! if i turn out to be a 90 year old senior citizen in a mitsubishi evo XL, more power to me! :D
