Beastage Posted February 15, 2002 Share Posted February 15, 2002 Don't have a photo but my car (well my family's car but I drive her) Is a awsome Subaru Impreza WRX STI which you can see in Subaru UK website press the link that says STI This car is amazing it super fast super fun and easy to drive as a WV golf she goes from 0-100 at 5.5 sec and has a top speed of 235 kph (I reached only 202 scary) If you like speed get an Impreza WRX STI (better than a Ferrari) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/14553-my-super-car/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

autodefe Posted February 15, 2002 Share Posted February 15, 2002 LOL you can't say most american cars are ugly in general. That's just a poor argument.

baphomet_irl Veteran Posted February 15, 2002 Veteran Share Posted February 15, 2002 beast I have to agree with uiop that the new headlights are v ugly - but thats irrelevant IMO cos the new Impreza STI is an amazing car! :D have u seen the new NSX? - they've slightly modified the headlights and made them curvy :s - but its removed 300kg from the weight so :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/14553-my-super-car/#findComment-118741 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riker Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 If you like speed get an Impreza WRX STI (better than a Ferrari) Yeah im sure a wrx is going to smoke a 550 marenello, or a 360 modena. Ferrari 550 0-100 in 3.6 secs that would be at least a sizeable flogging it would be atleast a 40 meters difference at the finish line. or what about the Ferrari F50 GT pfft it would completely spank a STI. LOL I love hearing ppl talk **** about how great there cars are. "Ive got a Honda Civic IT SMOKES FORMULA ONE CARS!!!" LOL thanks for the laugh i needed one. Suby's taking on Ferrari's :D ;) :D :p :p :p :) :) Get a clue mate.

Rib Feast Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 go easy rider, the times you gave were out anyway on the ferrari. While I'd certainly prefer a gt3 or a tvr tuscan, the wrx sti serves a lot of performance (4.8 secs to 60mph) stock standard for a fraction of the price. Add that to the fact that it would handle gravel roads more than a maranello would (can we say slide off the road ass first?) you can't beat a car down for the market it tries to serve - enthusiasts who can't afford a ferrari or may not even want one... another thing, the sprint to 60mph/100km/h is a 16 year old penis measruing technique, many cars may take a while to get going, I have a friend who was a series 4 rx7 with a trick belt driven auto, you can drive like a granny, put plant the foot and you stay at 9000rpm and keep accelerating, we beat a 1998 wrx STi on the motorway while spinning the tyres at 140km/h in the rain. His car takes 6 seconds to get to 100, and about that much again to get to 200..... Buy what you want, but don't mock a car for being less than a second slower, offering awd and costing 1/8th of the price...

Riker Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 http://www.supercars.net/cars/2001@$Koenig...0Maranello.html I can read and it says 3.4 secs there. Im not knocking the suby I like them, just the fact that he says its faster than a Ferrari is what im knocking. I know which one id rather own. And if i had the money for a WRX id get the EVO VII. BTW YA TOOL its Riker not rider cant you fn read. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/14553-my-super-car/#findComment-119010 Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/b] that is so true.. those ricers (civics & integras) only care about the first THREE seconds of a drag and even if they lose in the end, they dont care because they were able to get the FIRST THREE SECONDS in faster than the other car. :right: my 2 cents.

aco Veteran Posted February 16, 2002 Veteran Share Posted February 16, 2002 WRX's 0wn, they may not be the best looking car, but they are extremely light and handle like a slot car. Definately the most popular car among the young blokes here in Australia.

Riker Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 We all USED to like them, until everyone man and his dog has one, you see them everywhere on the roads now, you even see them being used as family cars. They are still a good car but there are heaps on them on the road now that its not really a head turner anymore.

Rib Feast Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 didnt mean to offend you with name being spelt wrong, just browsed through. as for the guy saying it was faster than the ferrari, I missed that too. The wrx is not a faster car at all. I have owned a number of subarus, while I don't consider myself a zealot for them, they are fairly good cars, some of which I've enjoyed driving, the 22b comes to mind My fav car would have to the a true driver's car, the tvr tuscan or cerbera 4.5, both sub 4 to 100, both can break from 200-0 in around 3.6 seconds or so. imho regarding the 0-100 spec, i reckon 1/4 mile is the nicest way to show a car's performance, it allows fast accelerating cars not to be squashed by larger cc and higher hp cars too much, but rewards the bigger cars nicely by the end Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/14553-my-super-car/#findComment-119098 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastage Posted February 16, 2002 Author Share Posted February 16, 2002 Do you even have a Ferrari? hmmm? I don't think so. I own a Subaru WRX STI cause its affordable and has better use to me than a Ferrari I can take 4 of friends out with it or just my girlfriend (she loves the car). I live in Israel were the max speed is 110kph and even than the highways are limited to 100kph which makes a Ferrari rather unusable to me . btw what about speed bumps (?) try to drive a Ferrari over them in more then avarege speed.:o Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/14553-my-super-car/#findComment-119248 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riker Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 Then again its just a suby, it has no real class or prestige, I agree with the speed bump thing, Im surprised you guys have roads over there with the amount of bombings/air raids/ground attacks/riots you guys have. Im only disagreeing with the fact that you said its faster than Ferrari'.:p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/14553-my-super-car/#findComment-119485 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so. to be fair, a 355 spider is a fun car when you can effortlessly pull into traffic in 3rd from the curb, but all things aside, for the money a wrx/sti and a few other jap models are fantastic bang for the buck. criticise them when they get over $50,000 US rrp for their shortcomings.
