Pinoy boy,
Sounds like you already made up your mind. Sounds like 04/05 STI. Face it Rocky, this is your fate. You've been sayin it through this whole thread. You like the look/ styling of the STi, as well as it fits your budget better + you haven't said a lot about the Evo VIII. And. . If Huck lets you back into the club, then you're money!
Or you can buy back your old Rex from Kev, and mod the heck out of it!
STI, STI, STI, STI,STI, STI,STI, STI,STI, STI,STI, STI it's in your head.

You're retarded, save your money. You are a student so you have no money. Your car is nice and it gets you to school and back, deal with it. I know it must be ruff to drive a modded M3 everyday, but get over it.
We love ya Rocky, but come on. Just worry about school for now

Buy an evo.
It like the fact that my STI is a bit more rare on the street than all the Evos.
Keeping the number of STI on the street lower will also help to keep my resale value higher.. just in case.
After all, the better car should keep its value better than the run of the mill street machine.

so wrong?
1 + 1 = 3 is so wrong.
opinions can never be wrong.

It's all fun to live dreams through others (STI's Evos, and the like), but. . . . Adam's right (and Max too)! I should not be promoting you getting things your don't need right now! In fact, maybe you sell your beemer for the great price you are gonna get, buy a beater or buy your old WRX back to get you through school, save your money in the meantime, and when you graduate bust out the ride of your dreams as a gift to yourself for finishing college!

thats true guys but i have been working my *** off working down here. i do not spend any money i drink on very rare occasions ( one of my best friends was just killed in a drunk driving incident) and do not go out to any great eaterys. Therefore i am in a decent financial position for this by myself. so i look at it as a great way to build credit and drive a great car i do not have to do anything to to be happy to. not saying i am going to keep it stock, but i am not going to go crazy with it. I know if i keep the M3 its destined to have a blower on it, but it does have 150k miles, which is not exactly high, but for a high enough to sell for the most i can get for it. If i do decide to keep it, it is none the less expensive to maintain. either way Adam, Max, Gus thank you for the advice of course you guys are always ones i always trust as family. But i am thinking this is what i want to do. i have a job locked for next year, and however long i want to keep it that is more than sufficient for car payment and 150 bucks for myself during the week. so i am going to be looking around for a used STi, or a 06 evo GSR maybe MR. but we will see......................
