new car looks dope

WhiteTgr135i · 03-14-2013, 03:04 AM

STy...j/k. Diggin the Takata green RPF01's. Why the switch?

t02t · 03-14-2013, 03:20 AM

Nice, quick on the upgrades for the sti too

comar1979 · 03-14-2013, 03:40 AM

both are cool Cars

But, why the Mudflaps @ the STi?

RimasRS · 03-14-2013, 03:44 AM

White wheels on STi would look better to me.
I think you will miss 1er soon....

Kgolf31 · 03-14-2013, 04:49 AM

Are you annoyed by the rattles yet or concerned when the day you're going to blow the engine with ring land failure?

Odd switch, but enjoy. I personally didn't see the joy in now power til 4000k

Webb70 · 03-14-2013, 06:34 AM

Love the new STi's, but never understood why everybody puts Red Mudflaps on them ?
Is there a meaning to that ? I was passed buy a group of them back in the fall (I was in my truck...lol) and almost all of them had red mudflaps...

katsooba · 03-14-2013, 08:35 AM

why green wheels?

Angerman · 03-14-2013, 10:46 AM

you got rid of the 1??

I was looking at STIs earlier....they want too much money for them. The BRZ with 10k down they wanted $400 a month

P7X · 03-14-2013, 10:47 AM

Green wheels + red flaps look dumb, don't know how old you are but seriously? You're gonna get attention no doubt but it will be ppl laughing at the car and potentially ppl trying to slide hardcover novels into your bookshelf on the back... just being honest.

STI is a great car, it was between a new STi and my 135i when i was buying last year. Personally im really glad i went with the 135i. The STI is a slight downgrade overall for ya but tons of aftermarket, AWD and a great sound coming out the back.

135IS · 03-14-2013, 11:34 AM

Your going to miss the 1

HebbNH · 03-14-2013, 11:36 AM

Don't understand the red mudflaps at all, but the rest of it looks good.

HugoCostello · 03-14-2013, 11:44 AM

which one is faster ? what do like more ?

WhiteTgr135i · 03-14-2013, 02:01 PM

Green wheels + red mudflaps = watermelon look. What turbo are you running?

n55_135 · 03-14-2013, 04:12 PM

Haters gunnna hate. I personally love the look of your sti and the old 1er you had was bad ass. Keep up the good work. . I have been contemplating a switch myself, mainly because of the winters we get up here in Alberta.

Cozy · 03-14-2013, 04:12 PM

Isn't the STi slower? I like it though, looks better than the hatch.

BrokenVert · 03-14-2013, 04:14 PM

PBP or Grey? Its hard to tell with your post.

Zombie1 · 03-14-2013, 05:50 PM

Hey man loved your 1 Dempsey! But I had an 04 STI my senior year of high school and it was a great car at the time for me,and I love GREEN! But I gotta throw some hate at you over the red being near a green like that that don't mesh but that's my only qualms with the look. If your after pure speed and crazy fun this is the car good luck and come back once and awhile

vertebra · 03-15-2013, 12:16 PM

Not crazy about the wheels or the mud flaps...I might just be to old for that look. love the car though!
