The STI is winning, lets keep it that way

Libila · 2006-06-22, 12:18 PM

+1 for the STi

Dean · 2006-06-22, 12:21 PM

What, no Camry?

JC · 2006-06-22, 12:59 PM

I voted for the EVO.

MikeK · 2006-06-22, 01:16 PM

I voted for the evo too. I would be driving one right now if mitsubishi dealers lived on planet earth.

M3n2c3 · 2006-06-22, 05:24 PM

What are your pros and cons when comparing the two?

Aside from the fact that every punk kid these days has a WRX or STi that his parents bought him?

SpecB#127 · 2006-06-26, 12:52 PM

I almost bought and Evo MR instead of my Legacy GT. I just could not justify spending $36K on a car with no cruise control.

SpecB#127 · 2006-06-26, 12:53 PM

Now it is 55% Evo, 45% STi

tysonK · 2006-06-26, 03:09 PM

I voted for the EVO, haha.

My postings on tuners must have paid off

No cruise control, huh? You actually use it?

HomerJay · 2006-06-27, 05:33 AM

I voted for the sti. just to break the trend.

A1337STI · 2006-06-27, 08:43 AM

I use it mainly on long trips or when I do not feel like getting tickets

A1337STI · 2006-06-28, 11:19 AM

I dig my cruise control. too bad it doesn't work when you have a CEL with a flashing cruise light

sp00ln · 2006-07-12, 08:49 PM

I hate using cruse control because I'm always wanting to speed up there, or slow down here...

MattR · 2006-07-12, 08:52 PM

When I used to drive my car to Lovelock for races, I discovered that the cruise on the Sti only goes to 97 Mph. hahaha...Vista Blvd in Sparks to Lovelock in 55 minutes...woooo.

M3n2c3 · 2006-07-12, 09:25 PM

I take it the 80E is no big deal as far as the police go. . .

Actually he was reading the info in the user manual on the way out there

ArthurS · 2006-07-13, 08:23 AM

Looks like the EVO took the lead.

A1337STI · 2006-07-13, 03:53 PM

One cool thing about the STI cruise is you can shift and just hit resume and it takes you back to your previous set speed. maybe it works that way on all cruise enabled manual cars, never tried it before my current ride.

Kevin M · 2006-07-13, 04:32 PM

That's how they all work.

Bob Danger · 2006-07-13, 05:55 PM

Cruise Control! Its nothing more than another electronic mumbo jumbo that comes between driver and machine!
