4...

[DerekNitroRC]

just got a quote from Allstate for #4 and it came out being a lot cheaper than my '96 BMW
waiting to hear back from my insurance company, Geico is a pain to get a quote once you are with them :\

[e30bmw]

Go with one of the STi's.

[BMRSEB]

+1 on #4

And GEICO is watching!!

[Leeroy]

I would go with 3 or 4.

[dinanm3atl]

Do one of the wagons.

Duh.

[DerekNitroRC]

if I can't get the STI then I'm going for the red wagon

[Philip]

I think you misread what I said...

[Leeroy]

Wagons are pimp....But I like the STI a lot more.

One of the perks a wagon has is that you get more "junk in the trunk".

[DerekNitroRC]

I use to have a wagon :p

I really miss that car :(

[dinanm3atl]

That's just like an outback...

[Mitch]

It looks like you have made you mind up about getting a Subaru. I'd stick with the STi with the fresh engine. Why does a 64k miles car have a new engine? Maybe overmodded? Who knows. All I know is a new engine makes that car more interesting.

[DerekNitroRC]

@Halston, it was my Outback

@Mitch I didn't see that #4 had a new engine, where did you catch that?

[BMRSEB]

I think Mitch meant #3 which has had an engine replacement.

And looking back at the cars, the red wagon (as mentioned by others), seems to be the better choice; it's cheaper, decent miles ~87K, probably less insurance costs and you can always mod it for more power..

[e30bmw]

@Mitch I didn't see that #4 had a new engine, where did you catch that?

He meant #3.

And either way, it is all good. You can easily make a regular WRX as fast as the STi.

I just have a thing for STi's in that blue color.:mf_dribble:

insurance is only different by $3

how hard would it be to make it equivalent to a sti hp wise?

[e30bmw]

I would imagine not that hard. But if the insurance is only $3 I might just get the STi. And if I was getting on of the WRXs, I would get the black wagon, I think it looks a lot better than the red.

[dinanm3atl]

3 dollars? For Geico?

I would call back and confirm. Geico RAPES 'performance cars'. They are anti-radar detector and support laws banning them and stricter speeding laws and a host of other crap.

[Leeroy]

Turbo....Take away a turbo from an STI and u loose all that power.

So u could either turbo or do a full STI swap.

Personally I would pick the STI, just my opinion tho.

[BigBumperNick]

The engine was replaced b/c...their engines only last to like 100k miles sooo i mean, that could be why.

[DerekNitroRC]

the WRX has a turbo as well

Halston, I was getting a quote from Allstate to get a reference point. Full coverage for me would be around $139 a month for either Subaru vs the $240 they quoted me for my 328is (but that was a year and a half ago)

[e30bmw]

Why not another BMW? Just curious.

They will give you a 300hp STI for 139 a month and a lowly 328iS is 240 a month?

Crikey!

[e36boomerm3]

:director: Moding a WRX to the HP of STI is like taking a 325I and making it an M3 clone:cursing:<----------------:nono:

[DerekNitroRC]

I wanted to get an STI before I got my 328is but I couldn't afford one at the time where I was working, now that I can afford one, I really badly want one.

Crikey!

I don't get it either, Geico was the only insurance company to quote me under $200 for my car...and CRIKEY is what I'm going to put on my license plate if I get a STI :p

:director: Moding a WRX to the HP of STI is like taking a 325I and making it an M3 clone:cursing:<----------------:nono:

essentially that is what I have done with my 328is but didn't badge it as a M3, I could really care less what other Subaru owners in Atl would have to say if I converted a WRX into a STI. I would even do the STI badging. I have a different kind of respect for Subaru's than I do for BMW. The M series is more legendary than the STI and has a higher reputation. idk, it is like comparing apples and bananas

[e30bmw]

I love STi's, just wondering why you were switching over. Either way(wagon WRX or STi), you will have fun.

[dinanm3atl]

:director: Moding a WRX to the HP of STI is like taking a 325I and making it an M3 clone:cursing:<----------------:nono:

What?

No it isn't.

[e30bmw]

One more thing, with an STi/a modded WRX, you will probably have the fastest car on this board. Except for maybe Mitch's M5. Anyone else's car that I would be forgetting?

Ummmm Halston's e36 is modded....but still street legal. Im surprised he hasn't been pulled over. He should bring that to Fud meet hehe.

The race car? I don't know the mods exactly, but I am not sure you can make an E36 M3 faster than an STi without going FI. I might be wrong, Halston might want to chime in about his car.

[dinanm3atl]

STi is faster.

[atl530i]

The first one looks like a scam... Unless that car has a salvage title or something really wrong with it...

[e30bmw]

STi is faster.

Yeah, STi's are stupid fast for the money.

[BigBumperNick]

Halston got that new "Make Your M3 AWD and Faster than For Cheap" Mod..

[DerekNitroRC]

why do you say that? it is right at the KBB value

[DerekNitroRC]

found #4 on Craig's List with a crap load of pictures

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/ctd/1014332576.html

[e30bmw]

That STi looks damn nice. All it needs is some gold rims.

[DerekNitroRC]

http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/cto/1034197676.html

they guy said he would be willing to make an even trade for my car

the catch is that his motor is out of the car and needs new heads
good trade?

[e30bmw]

I dunno, that seems a little sketchy.

Hell no.

It means he ****ed his car up and now wants a running car and stick you with the ****box.

[DerekNitroRC]

good point Halston, the #4 STi I'm in talks with the guy now about trading my car for it + some cash. Just waiting for him to respond to my offer....


edit: and Philip, don't hate me, I will get a M3 eventually, just now isn't the time.

[e30bmw]

#4 looks like the good choice, hope it works out for you.

Just make sure you get some gold rims. :sneaky2:

And don't worry about an M3. The only one that is faster than an STi is maybe an E92.

[DerekNitroRC]

trust me, gold rims are a must! idk why anyone would put something different on it. I guess to each their own.

btw, found this one on a forum
http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1702595

already has gold rims :p

I do want a M3 one day in the future, just now isn't the right time. Guess Philip will have to remain mad at me, a car shouldn't affect someone's friendship.

[e30bmw]

Yeah, but Douglasville is less of drive than Long Island. Also, the Atlanta one is stock mechanically, more fun modding it rather than buying an already modded car.

[DerekNitroRC]

indubitly. I just happened to come across that one while looking through forums and you mentioned gold wheels :p

He is mad because the STi is a better car.

I've got two people ready to buy my car, so hopefully if one of them can pick it up within the next few days I'm going off to get this one...
