    I honestly think when they changed the public health acronym STD into STI, it hurt the STI.
    Yeah, great tinder pickup line want a ride in my STI before I put one inside you? Irreparable damage to the brand when the STD became the STI.

    True, but no one forced Subaru to do nothing in response to this. Nimble car companies have already started airing commercials about how fuel efficient their cars are within days of the fuel price spiking. Subaru can't even re-brand a car when the earth labels it "Butt AIDS"??!
    and that happened years ago.

    Sad news to me. Was thinking if they released the STi it would be the last of the pure turbo car. Something similar to the concept would've been cool to see.Attachment 105208

    What other options are practical, trackable, stick shift, AWD sedan? oh and affordable
    Fuck sedan, get a Corolla GR hatch.

    It does have closed front and rear diffs that the WRX lacks. Brake torque vectoring doesn’t hold a candle to it.

    But there are good things that the STI lacks such as rev-hang and squealing throw-out bearing.

    Subaru couldn’t be bothered to refresh the drive train that’s been around since 2002 beyond some minor tweaks lol

    It’s as if most Japanese cars are massively overrated or something.

    I have money down on a GR Corolla. I joined a Toyota forum and it's like stepping back to the 90's the way they talk about JDM superiority. Reading a bunch of millennials talk up Toyota's appliance level products is hard to handle. I'm thinking of not getting the car because I don't know if I can handle being part of that community lol.

    The sti has gotten objectively and subjectively much worse than the original GD iteration. Even the best thing about the car, the 6MT/DCCD, they dumbed down, and made "fully electronic" and much worse.

    That's how I feel when VW bros wave at me when I'm driving our Golf R....
    I like neat cars.

    Every other automaker manages to make electronic differentials that perform better than mechanical differentials except Subaru. They can't build a decent engine either. I still don't understand why Americans love the brand so much as it's pretty well Subaru's only big market left.

    I doubt it's still this way, but many years ago, there were more Subarus on Salt Spring Island than all other brands combined.
    Try to unravel that equation.

    Not cars i'd personally buy, but I do give toyota some half ass points for the GR corolla, Supra, IS500, GT86, RC-F. Heads and shoulders above Nissan, Honda, and Subaru.

    How is a GT86 head & shoulders above a Subaru?

    Try Tesla forums or facebook groups... ugh. Full of mentally challenged people that seem to never have owned a car before.
