Default brand new sti vs me.....freeway run

headin north on 57 freeway the other night i encountered a brand new sti the new hatchback bodystyle still with the paper plates on it...so roll along side of it and shoot him a lil rev he grabs gear immediatly and starts to pull on me so i grab 3rd from 5th and give a lil chase...was a short lived pull and by the top of 4th he was in my mirror and let off...he pulled up aside me and gave me thumbs up and i got off the freeway...i really thought and heard the were a "force to be reckond with"...guess i heard wrong

either way good run.....!!!!

I'm not a real fan of STi's whether they be the new ones or the old ones.....Nice kill OP

I test drove one after I sold my Stage 2 B5 S4 and it was, for lack of a better word, boring

I've considered getting one for the fall/winter up here in the northwest but thats about it.

Yeah heard the new ones are slower than the older ones, my buddies got an 04 thats pretty stout, but only from a dig. Can get him from a 30 MPH roll in Monte SS all day long.
