A few days ago I had been visiting at my Mom's condo with my gf. When I left to go to my car in a visitor spot, from several feet away, I saw this tall guy ogling my car. I knew it would be awkward because he wouldn't be expecting the owner to walk out while he was checking it out.
When we got close enough for him to realize I was the owner, he backed up a little and stopped looking up close and said "nice whip man" as I went to the door lol. I was like "Thanks.." and laughed. So funny and awkward. Then, yesterday, I was driving home from work. I-84 was traffic as usual, so I skipped getting on right away and took back roads instead to get on the highway further down. You have to drive through a sort of ghetto-ish area on the way. When I was at a random corner waiting to turn right, three younger punk-looking kids were walking around the same corner. When they were like a few feet from my car on the sidewalk, one yelled out "Fresh ride!!" and I yelled back without looking, "Thanks man!" (my windows were down a bit). Then I glanced over and saw the one that yelled taking pics of my car with his cell phone camera hahaha.

I remember one time I let my friend drive my car cuz he wanted to feel how a Subaru drives. We approached a fairly steep hill, as he let on the gas he said, "This thing is an uphill BEAST". I looked at him and was like wtf? Lol

I don't get so many comments, but I do get A LOT of double-takes, or people staring through turns at my STI. It's awesome. I must admit I did NOT expect all of the attention with a stock '11 STI w/ roof racks and mud flaps. Hahaha, love it

Almost every "P2" Volvo S60 and V70 had a 5-cylinder in North America. Many of the older S70/V70/850 models did too. The smaller cars have fours or fives, and the newer cars have mostly I6s with a V8 wedged in one for a few model years for good measure. There's also quite a few Audis sporting I5s.

or he meant an accessport which is a pretty reasonable thing to say despite the fact that you already have a tune

Not really a funny phrase but fun story. I had a Modded GTi Hatch pull up next to me at a light and took off at green, so I was like why not. I caught up and passed the guy before the next light that was less than half a mile away.
We get to the next light and he asks "Hey man is that an STi?' Me: "Nope" Him: "What you got done to it? She a beast!" Me: "Intake and exhaust." Him: "Oh" puts head down and turns away. His car had quite a bit done to it from what I could tell. |

People need to stop buying GTIs thinking they are fast, that is not their purpose. Its a quick/fun car....

I can actually say I havent been tempted with such non sense in my sti.... for instance...
Today at a light i saw in my rear view a honda tricked out, saw an intercooler on it... and it was next to me.... revd its engine, sounded like a lawn mower. I didnt give it a second look, wasnt tempted... i just felt sorry for him wasting money into a 1992 piece of crap. |

All joking aside, they are more comfortable, refined, have less rattles, and have a decent following where I'm from with cool people. Apples to Oranges. |

I've had multiple people ask me if it has a hood scoop on it and instantly are convinced it's some sports car because of that. Always makes me chuckle a bit on the inside.
