2010 STI SE -- a.k.a. that which has left me (almost) speechless...

I love this car, and we've only just met...

 

Umm yeah looks sexy with the tails tinted. Congrats.

 

thanks! I wish I had the balls to do the headlights, but I really hate getting pulled over...

 

Tinting headlights is a terrible idea.
Otherwise, looks nice.

 

tragedy narrowly averted then... thanks!

 

btw... the garage door to the right in the 2nd picture... I had to pay for that to be replaced when my wife drove (coasted) my 05 through it... 2am July 4th is probably not the best time to teach one's wife how to drive a stick... clutch was fully engaged, but she couldn't find a free foot for the break... (I had time to tell her to brake 3x but wasn't sharp enough to pull the hand-brake)...

 

i thought the special editions only came in aspin white?
looks nice!

 

they did....

 

hmmm i do see spec c wheels though... so whats the deal? lol

 

Thought that at first too, but I think I read somewhere first/limited run of aspen white, the rest were any color

 

exactly... there was something like ~166 white ones, and then it became a full production model / trim package.... (a little more difference than "trim", but "model" would be too strong of a word)... I'm loving it...

 

ah nice! i withdraw my doubt

 

Nice ride bro! Welcome to the boards!

 

I want a set of those wheels!

 

Did you get this from SOK? If so I was eyeing this the other day in the showroom, it did have a "Sold" tag on it so I assume it was this one. Very nice indeed.

 

Oh, well there's a black one at SOK that was just sold too ;-)

 

I still just want those wheels.

 

Nice looking car!

 

Thanks everyone! the one @ SOK had a deposit on it before they received it... soooo happy went with SOG. I'm not the easiest customer, and they dealt straight and won the business... ymmv

 

This makes me want to go look at a new STi!

 

The new STI is an awesome car. Lots of people don't like it cause of the hatch but that is fixed with the 2011. It is more comfortable, just as fast and just as easy to mod as the old one. I would tell you to atleast go drive one. If you do, turn the SI drive to sport or sport # or you will be disappointed.

Congrats on the car, though. I know I love mine.

 

Nice ride! If they made an 2008 STI sedan I would have bought one but had to settle because I don't like the hatch back. Will have to check out the rumored 2011 STI sedan and see if I can resist the urge to upgrade.

The hatches are growing on me though.

 

There is no rumor, they are coming(2011 STI sedans) this Fall.

 

I had an 05 sedan, and it was the *best* car that I *had* ever driven... (I've owned and driven quite a few)... I love the hatchback, but it just suites me (as I currently exist)... I'd like to know if the center of gravity is different between the sedan and the 5-door... this car handles *way* better than my 05... the stiffness makes it more responsive in all directions (seemingly even forward)... I feel much lower, and it seems way more stable... I understand that the beefed up suspension could explain all of this, but it really *feels* like the COG has been lowered and brought forward...

 

Umm... *ok* ? j/k... awesome car...Looks great with the tinted tails and I'm lovin those wheels...

 

Will definitely have to check one out then.

 

first version of the new STi to peak my interest- nice! too bad we had to wait so long

 

Saw it in person yesterday Beautiful car man and it was nice to meet you!

 

pfft, yea but mines got automatic climate control..

 

I managed to *not* screw up this step...



You can't even tell that I took a hacksaw to the crossbars. ...except by the extra-tight fit...

 

I guess CW finally got the right parts in for ya

 

Kinda... I had to hit Rswl Bikes for a part, still don't have actual bike carrier... but we're getting there...

 

Thanks! I'm watchin' out for you rollin' 'round the JC...

 

i think i saw you on last Friday at 141. I was is black evo x with california tag. ur sti look Beautiful

 

LOL...you should of let me know...I get a discount at both shops since I race for Roswell and use to race for CW

 

hell yeah... I saw you.. the cali tag gave you away... that evo's tight.. the only other car I considered...

 

I appreciate it! the whole bike rack thing would have been easier online, but I figured I should support my LBS every once and a while... it kinda' backfired, but I still love the cw guys...

 

Haha thanks. I will wave at u next time I see u
