i know that their thread was started a long a$$ time ago but they all say WE DONT CARE ABOUT 0-60 TIMES..... well then why is the entire first page bashing the 0-60 in 5.4. my VW blah blah blah, then when someone chimes in and is like my wrx does 0-60 in 5.4... then they get all "your a ****"... um wow, first off 25k.... try 23.5 brand new with title and tags.... thats 21.5k for my rex before all that BS. so they are comparing a car that essentially cost 8.5k dollars more. ok ok turbo lag sucks yea yea yea.... but like it was mentioned.... no cats = peak boost around 2800 rpm's... port and polish that TD04 and its even quicker. i like the R32, i think it looks clean, probably is a kick a$$ car to drive but i guarentee my rex will stomp a r32 with one of them driving it. they bash everything about the WRX handling... tires (which is valid)... interior... um the STI interior especially 05 doesnt look cheap IMO. what else... o the drivetrain, even launching at 3k will beat most VW's out. ok what else.... um the sound????? WTF, it sounds like a turbo boxer engine.... i dont know what the heck that guy was talking about cause it doesnt make sense. they all say that they drove a wrx yada yada yada... i bet that is BS too.
now to sum up my rant, these guys dont know what they are talking about, and then when someone defends the WRX for what it is, "your a ****" comes flying out. these people need to grow up, and im only 19 and i know that. I love VW's interiors and looks but i have never even thought about dissing their performance because its not comparable, to think that they would compare performance and stylin.... and then renig and say they dont care about perofrmance is BS.... if they didnt care they wouldnt be enthusiasts. wow im just amazed at some of the stuff in the thread.
