My super car


Recommended Posts

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)

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.

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...

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.

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.

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

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

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.

    • Wow, Microsoft IS cooking lately... This only shows that they COULD improve, they just chose not to for whatever reasons. That obsession with AI was destroying them from the inside out.
    • BATorrent 4.1.0 by Razvan Serea BATorrent is a lightweight, open-source BitTorrent client built with modern C++ and Qt 6, offering a clean, fast, and privacy-focused alternative to traditional torrent apps. It supports magnet links, .torrent files, resume data, sequential downloading, per-file priorities, and even imports from qBittorrent. Power users benefit from integrated RSS auto-download with regex filtering, duplicate detection, and automatic tracker lists from Stremio. Streaming is seamless thanks to auto-detected players like VLC and IINA. BATorrent includes robust VPN tools—interface binding, auto-detection for WireGuard-based services like Mullvad and NordLynx, kill switch, proxy support, and IP filtering. A full WebUI enables remote control, while integrations with Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby automate library updates. With themes, speed scheduling, system-tray alerts, and cross-platform support for Windows, Linux, and macOS, BATorrent delivers a polished, high-performance torrenting experience. BATorrent features: Core .torrent file and magnet link support Resume data — picks up where you left off after restart Import torrents from qBittorrent Create .torrent files from any file or folder Sequential download mode Per-file priority control (skip, low, normal, high) Seed ratio limits with auto-pause DHT, PEX, UPnP, NAT-PMP RSS Auto-Download Subscribe to RSS feeds — automatically download new torrents as they appear Regex filters — match only what you want (e.g. 1080p|720p, S01E\d+) Per-feed settings — custom save path, check interval (5–1440 min), enable/disable Auto-download — matched items are downloaded automatically in the background Supports magnet links, .torrent URLs, and tags Tray notifications when items are auto-downloaded Duplicate detection — never downloads the same item twice Stremio Stremio Addon System pre-installed — works out of the box Auto tracker list from ngosang/trackerslist Streaming Play while downloading — stream video files before the download is complete Supports mp4, mkv, avi, mov, wmv, flv, webm, m4v, ts Auto-detects installed players (VLC, IINA, system default) VPN & Privacy Interface binding — lock torrent traffic to a specific network interface (e.g. tun0) Auto VPN detection — identifies VPN interfaces (tun, tap, WireGuard, Mullvad, NordLynx, ProtonVPN) Kill switch — automatically pauses all torrents if the VPN interface drops Auto-resume — resumes only the torrents paused by the kill switch when VPN reconnects Proxy support — SOCKS5 and HTTP proxy with optional authentication IP filtering — load P2P blocklists to block unwanted IP ranges Protocol encryption (enabled / forced / disabled) WebUI Remote management — control torrents from any browser at http://localhost:8080 REST API with JSON responses Add torrents via magnet link or .torrent upload Pause, resume, remove torrents remotely View peers and files per torrent Dark theme matching the desktop app HTTP Basic Auth with SHA-256 password hashing Configurable port and remote access (localhost vs 0.0.0.0) Interface 3 themes: Dark, Light, Midnight (bat/vampire aesthetic) Real-time speed graph Detailed panel with tabs: General, Peers, Files, Trackers Filter bar: search by name, filter by state (Active, Downloading, Seeding, Paused, Finished) Drag & drop .torrent files and magnet links Drag & drop reorder in torrent list System tray with notifications (download complete, kill switch events, RSS auto-downloads) Splash screen with bat animation Bilingual: English and Portuguese (BR), auto-detected from system locale Bandwidth Scheduler Alternative speed limits — set different download/upload limits on a schedule Time range — configure active hours (e.g. 01:00 to 07:00), supports overnight ranges Per-day control — choose which days of the week the schedule applies Automatically switches between normal and alternative speeds Media Server Integration Plex — automatically trigger library scan when a download completes Jellyfin / Emby — same automatic library refresh via API Configure server URL and authentication token/key in Settings System Cross-platform: Windows, Linux, macOS Auto-shutdown — automatically shut down PC when all downloads complete (60s cancellable countdown) Auto-update system (AppImage on Linux, installer on Windows, DMG on macOS) CLI arguments: pass .torrent files or magnet: URIs directly Keyboard shortcuts: Space to toggle pause, Ctrl+A to select all, Ctrl+O to open BATorrent 4.1.0 release notes: A community-driven release: everything here came straight from your reports and requests. It closes the remaining gaps with qBittorrent and fixes the Windows settings/tray/splash issues several of you hit. Fixed Settings now actually save. A whole class of preferences — speed limits (and the alternative limits), max active downloads, seed ratio, listen port, max connections, DHT/uTP/encryption, VPN interface, kill switch and proxy — weren't being persisted and reset to defaults on every launch. They now round-trip correctly. (Thanks to everyone who reported "the upload limit always goes back to 0".) Splash and tray toggles stick on Windows. Turning off the startup animation (or "close to tray") no longer reverts — the Windows registry stored these booleans as integers and the UI was misreading them. Close-to-tray hint. The first time the window hides to the tray you get a one-time notification, so the app doesn't look like it vanished (Windows 11 tucks new tray icons into the overflow). macOS Dock icon size. The icon filled its canvas edge-to-edge and rendered larger than neighbouring apps; it now uses the standard safe-area padding. Native file picker language. The "Torrent file / All files" filter in the open dialog follows the app language instead of being hard-coded. Added — qBittorrent parity Alternative speed limits toggle — a turtle button in the toolbar flips your throttled limits on/off instantly, independent of the scheduler. Follow system theme — switch light/dark automatically with the OS (Settings → Appearance). Pre-allocate disk space — reserve the full file size up front to reduce fragmentation (Settings → Downloads). Recheck data on add — optionally force a hash check when adding a torrent, so existing or partial files on disk are detected. Port status indicator — a 🔴 dot in the status bar shows whether your listen port looks reachable (UPnP/NAT-PMP + listen state; fully local, no external check). Add torrent from URL — File → Add torrent from URL (Ctrl+U) fetches a remote .torrent and routes it through the normal add dialog. Export .torrent — right-click a torrent → Export .torrent to save its metadata file. Already there (in case you missed it) Watch folder — auto-add .torrent files dropped into a monitored directory (Settings → Files). This release just surfaces it. Incomplete files already carry a .!bt suffix until they finish. Under the hood Regression tests for the settings-persistence and Windows boolean bugs. A new Qt Quick Test harness covering the startup splash and the design-system widgets.

    • Disabling open on hover, great! That was so stupid! They need to do a fix, where if a network share is disconnected, it doesn't hang when opening "This PC" for 20 seconds.
