    Looks awesome.

    It'll only turn into a ricer when you "upgrade" to a fartcan and try to race everyone in sight, later to brag about victories in which the other driver didn't know what was going on.

    But yeah, looks like a very nice car.

    I think your car is great and stuff, but I think, and this is just a personal opinion that you should have held out for some more cash and bought a WRX STI. Like your car is great, I just dont like the imprezzas lower than the WRX STI.

    yep, looks like a Rex. :)

    these (with the growly 'zorst) and the latest model Integra are the only jap cars that the sound of doesn't make me wince. not sure about the NSX, only seen em parked or idling by.

    I don't agree, just because there is something faster doesn't mean it's better for the job, which in this case is most likely "daily driver." STis costs 30% more (chump change to Ferrari guys, but if you don't have you can't spend it-- reality for most people).

    The STi has higher insurance rates, some very expensive consumable parts, a rougher ride and far worse gas mileage. Everything is a compromise, including the faster less practical car. A WRX is already a very fast so if the trade off of lost value and convenience is not worth the extra performance which may not get used anyway, the STi is simply the wrong car.

    NSX is one of my favorite (non-ferrari) sounding cars.
