screw that water ... just poison it because i'm saving the Earf with battery cars!

That consumption INCREASES the more you drive an i.c.e car as they literally are wearing out everytime you even start the engine. E.V.s by comparison after 2 years break even in the consumption required to build them.and charge them because they arr more efficiwnt over time and arent consuming oil and gas or putting c02 into the sky while driving FACT. I.C.E is just a constant INCREASING feedback loop.of wasted energy. So again to sum it up:

Holy crap you really know nothing

The vast majority of co2 is absorbed and released by the ocean

Nobody is waiting for it to break down

Stop talking
You do more damage to EV credibility each time you talk

Related/unrelated to the STi.
Cusco apparently built a 22b clone. Looks good to me, definitely wouldn't kick it out of my garage.

Weird they used the same wheels as the P25.

Was this the VB STI? It isn’t exactly the WRX’s bumper.

interesting observation, we wait to see if a wrx ts graces our shores here in the US. We just don't know at this point.

[4S-TURBO]

Perhaps that's the STI and proof it actually existed...

It had an ej too.

He's just joking...

Yea, the bumper is clearly painted more than the VB WRX, and the bumper styling is a mix of VA 15-17 vents, with the VB fog lights.

[4S-TURBO]

It's definitely not the same and resembles the facelift VA STI. It also has a lower lip. It's only missing the STI badge in the grill.

Again though you havent done your research, After just 2 years of ownership an EV breaks even on the initial environmental impact to build and charge them...after that all the oil and gas and residual maintenance saved over owing an oil and gas burning car is gone and it becomes neutral. Oil and gas burning cars NEVER make up for the environmental impact to build them.and drive them. In fact the environmental damage INCREASES with ownership. You are falling for big oil rhetoric.

your falling for green power propaganda.

First of all....who cares. ICE cars are more fun and more capable. Full stop. EV come with compromises for no apparently real reason. But drive the car big government wants you to drive. Go ahead.

I have not spent a single penny on any maintenance on any ICE car in over 6 years. Not a dime. Everything has been covered by the dealer. Have not have one break down either, not even my Jeep, which was remarkable as it had 24000 miles.

The nissan leaf I drive is vastly more fun than any equivalent vehicle because of the instant torque and linear power delivery. That impact scales to other cars as well. The only compromise that the EV provides doesn't impact me at all, because I don't drive it more than 225 miles at a time. I can't wait for an EV STI (or similar vehicle made by a different manufacturer, likely VW or Hyundai, because Subaru will definitely not be leading the charge here).

[rallly 4]

That’s the STi.

Come on….I’ve driven a leaf when they first came out. A base golf with a 5 spd is more fun

I still spell it like that, I hated when they put the uppercase I lol

Well, it's incorrect to do so. Obviously, do as you wish.

[Russ_G93]

Im not saying the Shirt print isn't the STI, but it does look quite similar to the front of a VB. The oem fog light covers do have that exact look to them. Upper and lower grille looks the same as well. Would have at least expected the Fog light covers to be different in Injection mold design for the STI.

[Snow Drift]

I still think it's more than a bad drawing. Even if I adjust the VB, the shirt is rather different.
