Angry Couldn't take it anymore.....

So it's done....My love for the Z, went to a Love/Hate, to a Hate. I'm sorry guys just could not take the problems anymore the looks were just not enough, to keep me with her. The car just had to many problems.
So I took a test drive of a 05 STI bottom line WOW. Some parts seem alittle cheaper but the funny factor is diffenitly there. This doesn't mean I'm leaving the site " I love this site ", I'll just be driving a different car. Flame on...lol

Hey look, it's the family grocery getter on steroids.

Just kidding, nice car, my friends got an 05 and it's awesome. That's actually the other car I was considering but I couldn't over the fact it is based on a cheap grocery getter.

Like the power of the STI, but it seems it is getting owned at the track by the lower HP Evo's? Hmmm.

Quick question for you, did your insurance go up or down when you got the STI? If so how much up or down, if you don't mind sharing?

Congrats on your new ride, keep us posted if there are any problems with the STI.

I'm car shopping right now and I called in to get a few insurance quotes and the STi had a much higher insurance rate. Now, I would be able to keep the insurance on our family plan (and just pay my dad) and my mom would be considered the car's primary driver so insurance stayed really low, but for the figures I was quoted, the STi cost about 230 dollars more every 6 months than did the 350Z. I was actually quoted a higher rate for the WRX than the 350Z, but just about 25 bucks more every 6 months. I guess the turbo scares the insurance folk....

My insurance is only $166 a month, I got 35% off for the LOW JACK system.
