I still think it's ugly as sin - just not as bad as I had originally thought. Maybe it's growing on me?

I wasn't the biggest fan of the bug-eyes either, until I threw my JDM's on...

NO ONE can argue re: the performance potential of these beasties though!

Yeah, whether you love or hate the looks, there's no denying the power of the sti just bone stock. That alone is worth the price of admission. And like you said, the potential in upgrading too...

I remember some people bashing on it left and right. Sure enough though, a few of those same people are trading in their wrxs for an sti. As Doc Holliday said in Tombstone, "My hypocrisy knows no bounds."
I've always liked the wing, right mitch. The hoodscoop is the killer.

3-days ago Rebecca didn't like the look of the STi, now she loves it!

Sorta funny how before I had an STi I thought they were 110% perfect and I could care less about the little things, but how quickly we (I atleast) forget. Now I find myself looking at things and wanting to replace or change them. Maybe its the never being satisfied thing.

It's the same thing with girls, except that you can't change that much about them so you just live with it.
