Can someone tell me how to make multiple quotes in one post? I feel like a frosted flake replying to each one.

The 04-06 had variations on the same tune, whereas the 07 has a much more complicated system with a bunch of extra tables and factors to deal with. When I first started driving my STi I knew that it felt very different from the 04 I test drove. (If it was an 05 I would have bought that. I was just not down with the narrower wheels, steel lateral links, no radio, funktastic steering wheel, no climate control, ect) Anyway, coming from a 99 Si, I was used to having nothing down low and a big rush up top. But man, was my car embarrassing in parking lots, hump a bumpa humpa bumu bump. Yeesh. A cobb accessport, then the protune From Mike at GST that I won at last years BAM = more better!
But yeah, the stock tune sucked, even after the reflashes from the dealer.

That 17K mile '07 SWP STI on Craig's List is overpriced at $27K and it appears as if the owner's either stubborn or he really doesn't want to sell it, otherwise it would have sold by now if priced correctly or he was willing to negotiate.
It's worth about $24K based on the Autoniq Black Book National wholesale prices if it's truly Xclean. Will he get that in this market, I dunno, I probably would have gone 23 and change, but just reading his ad you can tell he's in love with the car and doesn't want to let it go.

I just traded an 05 STi in at Fremont Ford for $15k. It had 71400mi on it and was in great condition (no accidents or issues). They may still have it for close to that price. Good car, silver (PSM).

Yeah, I'm not down with rotas either. Well, the 07 has the best transmission, torsen rear diff, aux in, better frame braces, Pearl White (Which is why I bought mine), ect.
Downsides are the spec a front control arms, 19mm rear sway, horrible factory tune, and Paul Walker head and tail lights.
I have rectified all of the above
