This is one badass car! It hauls ass and performs like a champ. It looks a 100 times better then the Evo IMO. I wish Misu had based the Evo on the eclipse or something other than the lancer. i don't like the new eclipse body style as much as the old but it's better than the prancer, er sorry. Anyway this is an awesome car. That being said, I HATE THE WING!!! Sorry, I'm not hating, but i think it would look a lot better without or a different one. Still an awesome car!

One of my friends with a Supra TT is getting one of these. I can't wait to see what it can do. Although, I already know it can do us.

Yeah, that wing is f*ckin' nasty!!

Wing gets award for most retarded accessory ever. I cannot figure out if it made me or first. I don't care how fast that car is -- even as a former Subaru owner, I'd be embarrassed to be seen in such a silly thing.

I'll wait to see a few in person before passing judgment on the rear wing. The STI is a nice ride.

That wing is absolutely rediculous. Which is too bad, since no matter what I do to my car, that's all I'd see if I raced one - that ugly wing sailing into the distance ahead of me.

Sweet car!

i wonder if you can remove that wing and get a more......sublte one. something thats not so friggin ricey! sweet car though.

i dont mean to mag race but it seems the Evo is still faster than it, even though the STI has more stock HP.

Nice but I'd rather have the Neon and save 10 grand. I heard the mark-up is like another 10 grand...is this true. I was reading the new C+D mag with the Sti-vs-Evo and the 0-60 times for both of these cars are insane. HOWEVER their 5-60 times lost like 1.2 second each!!!!!! What a difference w/o the launch of all-wheel-drive. Basically if u had the new Neon SRT-4 and raced the Sti on the street from like 10mph on...u should be right there next to it. AWD cars loose alot without the launch. I had a 95 Eclipse GS-T before and used to get smoked by GS-X's , but if we raced from like 15mph on , then I would smoke them cause they don't have the advantage anymore, just two extra wheels to drive~!~!!!

That wing looks like a Picture frame... better yet put a net on it, drive around and catch some bugs or birds....

Nice whip, minus the bug catcher.

the impreza is the only car that wing looks good on...that wing was out years before people would have thought of it as rice, its not like subaru jumped on the bandwagin to make it appeal to boyracers.

Despite the fact that i hate that wing...(its jus too big for a small boxy trunk like that) i wonder why they put it on there. Maybe it is needed??

damn, that must be the most fucking ugliest car next to the lancer evo8 on the planet...well, the aztek is..but fuck me, these new lesbarus are even uglier than before!

That wing gushes out extreme RICE and what is the big deal about this car anyway? FAST IS NOT ALL THERE IS TO A CAR...the interior looks like a rental car interior and I guarantee you no one will know what STI WRX is...it looks like any other lesbaru but the 777 wing stands out the most.

Sorry but that car is hideous...and paying $30k for a car like that is really not worth it...imo that is. Adding a bit more money you can get a nice looking Z...

PS- hope it's not the one from this video posted:

hey I didn't even know people are talking about my car. well thanks for posting it peiqinglong. Yes I thought this car was ugly as hell but I still got it, then you know what? it grows on you just after 3 hours of owning it... and MAN does this thing pull! You'll overlook the style after you feel the power. Can't wait the the break in period is over. By the way, I still have my TLS. I love that car and I refuse to give it up!
