well a buddy of mine has a 99 integra GSR, he lent it to his brother to install some stereo equiptment, so he's driving his older brothers car for now......(drum roll please) blue o2 WRX. The car is bone stock, and ive raced one before (fast but not THAT fast) well naturally he offered to take me for a ride, and didnt even launch hard (didnt want to kill brothers clutch). Well we get in, and man, that car is FFASSST. My car is quick in first gear, then in second it kinda loses the quickness, not the WRX, cruising in second at about 45mph i look down at my phone and he nailed it: put me back in my seat very quickly. All i have to say is dayum, nice car, and damn quick

i start to like your sig more and more everyday ;), anyway, thats the thing, it didnt really feel like boost smacked me, it was very smooth and linear, just pulls very hard all the way to 7k, the car starts to feel more powreful at 2k or so, maybe it just boosts low

Hmm. Sounds like a good ride to me. I've never ridden in a WRX before, but I don't like their exterior much

Isn't that a post about WRX and not Veng's signature ?

Don't get me wrong, I like that a**.

I loved my buddy's WRX which I drove this weekend. I think if I really get into skiing I will hafta sell my 240 and get one of those WRX Wagons. I bet my suspension setup on 240 is gonna be a b*** to drive in the snow.

WRX's dont really feel that fast... they don't feel like turbo cars at all when they are stock... Get a ride in one... it's kinda like it creeps up on ya... the pull starts off pretty wheak but builds... not like my sr at all... (one... tWHAM!!!)

I drove both the 04 WRX and STI.Like everyone has posted the WRX is very smoth.I thought the 220+ hp would feel more like a kick in the pants, but its just a smoth fast but does not seam so fast car.Now the STI on the other hand feels like your on a rocket every time you push the gas to the floor.Crazy what another 80hp will do!

This is a WRX thread. See my thread about the EVO VIII vs STI for the EVO praise. ( http://nicoclub.com/zerothread?id=34329 )

;) Both are awesome cars!
