jarrod Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Thinking about ordering one when order banks open back up. Any of you guys have a 2011+ hatch? How are they with car seats etc? I got to test drive a used 2010 sti hatch but am under the impression that the suspension was changed on the 2011 and up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbone Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 This is the Legacy GT boards. If you want to test the waters may I suggest you go see either iwsti or nasioc boards? Chances are significantly higher you will get feedback instead of crickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ihackperl Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 i dont think i would buy a new STi again.. in fact, i recently struggled with a similar dilemma to pick up another STi or Evo, or just go with the legacy. ultimately, the lessons learned from my first STi have pushed my into the legacy.. i picked up a 2012 LGT limited and am now looking for a used STi that can scratch the mod-bug weekend fun car. if you think youre going to buy an STi and have a great DD, youre wrong.. spend any time on iwsti or nasioc and youll see how hard the modbug bites those cars.. youll start with stage2 and within 2 years you will have a car that is no longer a suitable daily driver - that youll likely end up selling it to someone like me so you can buy a family-friendly daily driver. .02$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
