Hahaha nice kill. STi guys can be pretty big douches...there is a blue one around here with an "8URV8" license plate that I've seen a few times local but never got to play with.
Back in like 06/07 one of my friends had a stage 2 STi that he would always talk about how nasty it was. I rode in it and it felt fast as **** from a dig until I looked at the speedo and was like "wtf we're still only doing 40???"
. I didn't even bother trying to race him with my bolt-on LT1.
They can be pretty quick built...but a stage 2 is fancy term for mild bolt-ons and slow.

Yeah there have been a lot more muscle cars coming out lately. At first it was all Hondas, but were getting some 6xx-700 horsepower vettes and mustangs coming out now.

good kill op, you wasted your gas
damn a bit harsh man, but i agree those vanity plates are pretty stupid tho, but if you think about it, they can still eat your V8 with motorsports that involves taking lots corners 
a very well driven and tuned mild bolt on STi (full exhaust/intake/tune) can be decent, i was able to run very low 12s to high 11s, added few more bolt ons i was in the low 11s range and able to play with cars trapping mid 120s in the freeway roll racing, but majority of modded Subaru from bolt ons to big built is not set up correctly, and run very poor, they are also not your typical car to make power off
kids will always be kids, and eventho STi are AWD, they are not user friendly car, you have to shift in 5th gear just to finish the 1/4mile, 4th gear ends at 98mph @ 7200rpm example how short gearing is, thats 4 shift you need to make to finish 1/4mile, more chances for error and more lost times between shift, and from a roll its just as bad, since STi can easily be out of its powerband due to its gear ratios and very small turbo
