yeah the whopping 7 hp is going to make it comparable with the evo.... so it has an extra litre... yeahhhh it HARDLY makes much power than the old wrx.
WRX is rated at 20 city, 26 highway.
STI is rated at 18 city, but we all know b gets 16, and 24 highway.
EVO is rated at 19 city and 25 highway.
EVO MR is rated at 18 city, and 24 highway.
Now sure you could milk each out to get better mpgs, but honestly, that extra will be marginally better at best. And if you were so cautious about money, you'd get the wrx regardless of how many gears or litres it has.
Plus the WRX TR which is the "stripped out version", which still comes with power windows, with a few options comes to 26K, and the other WRX will easily go over 27 with some options and after T/T/whatever. While the STI will easily go for 33-34 after a few optoins and the tax and shit. But this is stupid with the "same amount of money into it" argument, because it could turn into "i got a ef for 800 bucks, ill surely beat you wtih 35k of mods to it..." kind of thing. Im pretty sure we are talkin stock for stock.
Im with b16, its not that we are mad, but a lot of the things are kinda, i dunno.. not silly but.... off.
Anyways, peace love and happiness to all. <3
