lookslikeanevo Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 i know theres a few out there that did... any regrets? driving the audi now, i really miss the leggy.. i miss the rumble and the power... im torn again from where i was a year ago, i should have never traded the leggy in, but i did, and i was dumb... but it did make me appreciate it a lot more, obviously the sti will not give me as much plush as the legacy ...mianly shopping spec-bizzles with irvine already having the 2010... i guess im contemplating 4 cars 08/09 leggy09 sti2010 leggy and far from every thing would be the EvoX again... i know a few dont like the 2010 leggy but i do...and would have tons of plans for it to be sexy...again planning on driving it soon...

Infamous1 Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 There are still a few brand new 08' SpecB's out there. However if I were you I would go used, the depreciation on Leggys is just far too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniStiGuy Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I'd say get the 2010 and be the first to really mod it out. I'm sure some company's will work with you on making parts and stuff. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naylor Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I test drove that 2010 and it was nice. felt and looked like a higher class of car...there's some serious potential. you bought an A3 right? can you do much to mod it, but not break the bank?

lookslikeanevo Posted July 28, 2009 Author Share Posted July 28, 2009 ^i got the a3...and no the mod potential on this car is there...but it breaks the bank... 3gs to upgrade to a bre minimum gt28 turbo kit? nah...

Knight705 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 any euro cars break bank to mod. they markup products a lot when it comes to modding luxury cars..... things that cost $300 on a typical car would cost like $700 on theirs.... cause they know those people will pay.

MiniStiGuy Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I'm not racist by any means or anything but I find that most asians don't want to spend money and most everyone else will spend it. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-WDC Spec B Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I dont know what kinda of asians you know. Although i lived in SD for a few months and im pretty saddened by how most of the filipinos i see out there live. And also not use to it comen from jersey. and its not really racist as it is to sterotyping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniStiGuy Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 yeah that is weird and that's basically what I mean. My friend growing up had both parents working at a hospital. Dad was an Anesthesiologist and Mom was a neurosurgeon. They had like NOTHING in the house and drove these old beat up lexus that was never clean or anything. I always thought it was odd that they choose to live that way when the didn't have to. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought it was odd that they choose to live that way when the didn't have to. old world mentality. always save money for the future. only spend what you need to survive/live. besides the super rich asians... most will tend to save.... like me, i'm cheap as hell, but a few times out of year, i spend like no tomorrow.... then regret it, and don't spend anything for a year until i do it again... haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeaux Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I went the other way. I went from '05 STi->'08 STi->'08 spec.B. I don't really miss the STi's that much but then I'm over that type of car for now. It is nice having the added HP but the thing that made both STi's so nice is the handling. It's awesome off the lot. They're like cats with glue on their paws. Stick like hell to the tarmac. Not that they're slow either. My '05 would do 0-60 in 4.5 and about 13 in the quarter mile. Not bad for a stock machine. The '08 is a lot more plush than the '05 on the inside. You'll read all kinds of crap about how the '08+ STi's are less of a car than the previous gens, that's crap. Mine was just as hot as my '05 (they were both stock). But I kinda out grew them. Decided I wanted a little more of refined car with a nice ride. But still wanted a "proper" transmission. The spec did it for me. I don't know if this helps you at all, but it's my take on the three of them. -joe- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookslikeanevo Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 ^ya actually does spec is still number one on the list... if i have to settle then evo or sti ...i just really want a sunroof...but i cant get what with the STI...but i can with the wrx premium which really sucks because i dont really want cloth...lol if i cant find to meet my budget now then i guess i will wait until the time is right ...
