Subaru Impreza wrx or wrx sti?

**IGNITED** · February 7th, 2007 10:09 PM

simple lang bro, if u had the "seeds" to play with just wait for the top of the line STi.. Ur 1 of the chosen few na makakakuha nun sa pinas! Its like choosing d likes of an evo, silvia, s2000 against the class s / top of the food chain (1k or more ponies capable n' willing) honda NSX, toyota supra or d japanese myth like nissan GTR. Pro if u have a bit of a tight budget just go for the WRX, it's a freaki'n good car as well.

I think im just gonna get the normal wrx bcoz i'll use it as an everyday car.

Thanks for all the suggestions! The sti costs 2.2+80k insurance i think so mga 2.3m na.

Spec C,type 25's,etc... isn't sold here so it doesn't matter. More likely its the USDM. I would opt for the Sti because it is 6 speed, more hp/tq, dccd, better suspension,brembos. Fuel efficiency is irrelevant between the WRX and the STi because force induction fuel economy is how cool you keep your right foot. STi also has the cruiser 6th gear for the highway. I like the 6th gear in my car, imagine 100 kph and just 2k rpm

. You can use the STi as daily driver, my car is daily driven. Test drive both if you get the opportunity

STI para di ka magsisi....

No such thing as too hard to drive on the streets.... unless you mod the hell out of it.

If you have the money the STI is the better choice. No contest for me there.
You can' thave enough power.

ser thread starter, ano choice mo?

btw, is it true that the upgrade kit for the WRX can make it more powerfull and faster(max 280kph) than the STI?...and is cheaper.

i don't think so kasi pano yung 6-speed transmission advantage ng STi. Replacing the whole transmission would surely be pricier.

Rode in a friend's STI recently and iba talga yung power nya compared sa WRX! But if you intend to bring passengers in your ride, you better warn them in advance cuz ramdam sobra every bump.

Mas ok ang WRX kaysa STI version,medyo di ok ang WRX STI rito dahil Euro-Asian version ang nandito hindi yung 300hp USDM...Oh well sulit naman ang WRX...
