teppichkopf Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 Went to the dealer to pick up some parts today. Afterwards I strolled the lot looking at the new models. Of course a saleman started pointing out all the benefits of buying a new car. I was sincere about not being in the market. Since it was slow he suggested we take a WRX out for a spin. I wish I hadn't. Even though I only put 5 miles on it up the street and back, all I can say is: Wow!! Then he showed me the STi. (Sadly no test drive.) If I said I wasn't a little bummed driving my Legacy home I'd be lying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frag Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 If that salesman had not been wearing a hat and a long coat maybe you would have seen two small stuby horns on the front of his head and a long red pointed tail between his legs. Anyway, you probably know what is the best way of getting rid of that kind of temptation. [/url] You could do it with money or with religion. In my case, I admit I lack both righ now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoxersOnly Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 I know what you mean. I had a '99 RS, absolutely loved the car and decided to buy it when the lease was up. Then I drove a WRX....... Guess what's im my driveway now Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacy92ej22t Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Yes, they are pretty fast and very fun....just not built as well as most older Subarus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodsWagon Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 I have all old subies but I have wanted a WRX ever since he relayed to me that him and his brother had gotten his bro's up to 140 on RT 128 at 2 am. The car was bone stock, and they said that it started to "float" as it got up above 130. A non sporty looking sedan that kicks but in the snow and does 140 on pavement? I want really bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llama Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 heheh, stay away from the STi then.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratty2Austin Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 after driving a WRX, go drive a forrester XT with a 5spd, then an STi, ... after that, you wont want a stock WRX anymore! personally, I would buy the Forrester XT over the STi! (well, its really a toss up there, but the XT is more comfortable, for almost the same performance) if you wonder how I know about these? well.... it has to do with my job! I will let you guys know how the new turbo legacys are when they unload them from the truck (estimated next month for us, and then i will take one for a spin) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
