I love my car. Having AWD and a turbo is nice. The performance is what I mainly got the car for but it is very dependable. The only issue is the gas because I HAVE to fill with Super Unleaded. 91 or above octane. But the gas mileage isn't so bad.

Pros — Everything
Cons — Not many

This car is quick for the engine it has
very nice handling and goes around turns without a problem
the all wheel drive system keeps the car on the ground and i havent had any problem slipping out in the rain or snow
pretty expensive to maintain, needs high grade oil and tires are big 225/45-17 stocks

Pros — Very fun car to drive
Cons — Feel every bump, most def ment for the track

It is by far the most amazing rally bread car ever. Combined with Cobb Tunning and a new turbo back exhaust the car is great. There is no car you can buy for the price of the this car that can match it out of the door. I love this car.

Pros — Fast, great turbo and interior.
Cons — Nothing i love it

I got this car for graduation. I did a turbo upgrade and full suspension upgrade. Now i have a built stage 3 motor, just under 600hp. I love my car and I would never get rid of it. It is by far my favorite car I have ever had. It gets horrible gas mileage but it isn't built to have good gas mileage. It is a BLAST to drive.

Pros — Everything
Cons — gas mileage

Let's see... horsepower, torque, reasonable weight, 6mt, handling... let's tear up some curvy roads! USDM jumbo seats hold not bad, maybe have to look into some JDM skinnies... more power is very easy to unlock, and the sound of the engine with an after-market exhaust... bliss! = new addiction is this not already beyond 50 words??

Pros — everything
Cons — haven't owned it long enough

i really like how this car can launch like no other!  it is a beast to drive on the street.  i love how they have integrated the intercooler spray which helps it to cool down the car after you tune it.  however it does have a bit of understeer and its differential isnt as good as the evo's.  i really do like the evo mr seats just a bit more than the sti's.  i really like how they are such a good building block though.  the gt35r turbo kit helps a lot with its performance!  another thing that i really like is the fact that agency power makes tons of parts for it.  the ap exhaust i got for it sounds like no other!  i love it!

Pros — good building block and a really fast car!
Cons — not as good of a differential than the evo and a bit of understeer
