I'm guessing it was stock and your not. My friends stage 2 11 sti went 13.5 at 105 with a 1.7 60. I really love those cars and it has high 12's in it for sure if he actually shifted fast. It put down like 270/330. It's hard to justify a 32k for a car with the performance/gas mileage and insurance cost though.

Ill stick to my 11-12 sec car for under 14K including mods . I won't lie though. Those cars are nice. I wanted one for a long time. I guess part of me still does. They sound bad *** too.

I have, now it's your turn. He is from Lancaster. Better get your game face on and start working that right arm to shift alittle faster.

Very much this. My last car was a newer STI, and while I liked it, it was a bit slow, and got worse fuel economy than any V8 I've owned. My insurance jumped a bit with my latest car, but yeah 30k+ for an STI is a rip off.
