NEW MY WRX and STI

[team_v]

to be honest, im the kind of person [you know a few too, im sure] who would choose the new polo 1.2T over an XR6T, if someone were giving them to me for free.

im just weird like that. we're all a little weird in some way.... why else would we be driving VW's? lol

Agree completely.

I would rather spend the 70k on a lotus rather than a new HSV VE2 Grange or the FPV GT SC-5.0L

What's all this 'MY' **** anyway? Wasn't it a Subaru model prefix that everybody adopted into their cars title?

something about taking a small engine in a light car, and working with that, just tickles my fancy.

it'd be awesome to see someone get like 125kw/ 240nm out of the polo's little 1.2T.

Probably. Bloody simpletons.

Went and had a look yesterday, i would be more keen on the STi after already owning 2 WRX's.

I'm not keen on the rear of the sedan so would probably opt for the hatch if i got one. Main thing putting me off though is the interior, one of the main reason's i was wanting to move away from Subaru is because i'm after a bit more of a quality feel inside.

Will hold on to my hopes of the Golf arriving sooner rather than later before persuing the Subaru i think.

Yeah found this,

YouTube - New 2011 WRX

And to be honest I think its the best looking WRX yet. It will accelerate like a scalded cat. STI is rated on Subies website as 4.9sec 0-100km/h!! Not bad for stock.

BUT. The interior is **** house. Only thing is that for a WRX, to have bluetooth, an awesome SAT NAV system with DVD player, Sunroof and Leather.. for $43990 +ORC is amazing to me. Then factor in the deal a good dealer would give you. Not bad. And it sounds great stock with the quad exhaust.

But the interior is definitely **** house. Reliability though is awesome. MY99, 03, 08, 09 and never had a problem. MY99 rattled to the ****house after a few years but pretty much after the MY05's they were good.

Oh, and they dont have an annoying rattle sound between 2000-3000rpm...

So REXman are you seriously considering cancelling you R order?

Me too (though not a polo really).

I've got a Mk4 GTI and am buying my dad's black Jetta 2.0T DSG (which I'm currently driving, he wanted me to have it for a month so that I'm happy to make the change) and could hardly be happier.

My 21 yo brother came to Sydders to buy a modded R33 GTR lookalike (it's GTS-T with GTR panels, bumpers etc and an ecu tune) and my dad and I both wouldn't swap for it. Plus I like stealthy cars anyway, not sheep in wolves' clothing.

VWs are lovely, but if you want sheer grunt it's hard to top tuned 4.0T falcons.

Hey Prodigy, Its definitely on the cards. Great package, thats available now. I already feel like Ive lost my licence cause I havent had a car since April, and Im getting real toey looking at pictures of cars and not driving cars.
