old cars

and "peanut related"

maybe you shoulda go back to the german side.....?

i find it hilarious you think the wrx feels cheap compared to the jetta, lol. a close friend of mine has a jetta, trust me there is no royalty associated with his car, no offense lol. i mean really, what do you expect?

- i am not the only one that feels this way (many general community agree we have CHEAP crap interior + are no where near solid as a euro cars)

-I bought the wrx to have a fast AWD turbo car.... that is it.. i am not here to jump on the subaru bandwagon and say the are the best cars ever

-09+ wrx & STI's interiors have changed for the better & i would consider them more solid

im not saying these cars are god either, lol. im just saying that thinking audi n VW's are more solid is a joke. mercedes benz and BMW's are WAY more solid construction if you want to talk euros.

dont forget that cheap interior'd fast AWD turbo car is also 5-star safety rated....

wisconsinsubaru · 12-20-2009, 09:19 PM

does this model RS have smaller front fender flares than the STI model?

JDM_OBP · 12-20-2009, 10:28 PM

UTwagon · 12-20-2009, 10:34 PM

Specs on the wheels and tires please? +28 or +38 offset

JDM_OBP · 12-20-2009, 10:54 PM

I hate the pre-04 interiors. 05+ interiors feel so much better. I believe all of nasioc can back me on this. definitely not the best, but a good blend all around for a car.

azn_outlaw · 12-21-2009, 12:34 AM

Not the best pics but thought I could contribute:

Some really nice cars in this thread, hope to get my car like that over time...

The per 04 has the worst cupholder situation ever. Terrible design. The 05+ interiors are nice and the 08's may feel solid but they still rattle like every other subaru after you put some miles on them.

Food for thought lol

GDAryder · 12-21-2009, 05:17 AM

ok ok ok....

sorry im still not sold on the more solid VW interiors.....i have too many friends with VW's for me to judge my opinion here lol. my boy has a 1.8t jetta wagon that you can hear plenty of clicks and rattles in lol.

I mean, I enjoy not having it sound like its hailing every time it rains, that used to piss me the hell off with those roofs.

Yea, I have a lot of VW friends too

and many more suby ones.

evoeater8 · 12-21-2009, 09:25 AM

idk i do have to concur the vw interior in my girlfriends 08 gti is wayyyyy better than my sti. heated seats better lumbar support and the ride is much quieter than the sti's... hands down.

GDAryder · 12-21-2009, 01:54 PM

tis a shame they put more emphasis into the sound deadening and interior pieces of their newer cars, instead of the motor/power they produce.......

GDAryder · 12-21-2009, 01:57 PM

thanks guys

Yea the side skirt "spats" are called aero guards. They look good, but I've had them on the car for so long that I think it's time to change things up. I've always loved the STi sides with Chargespeed bottomline kit look.
