wrx test drive

[Natty32V]

My first words are wow...that was fun!!!! I drove up to to Belluvue with my buddy, met the salesman. He had the car out in front, we talked about it and the price for a half an hour, it was $17,900 and I was acting like I would go 17,000 just so I showed interest for a test drive!!! It worked and we got out on the interstate, I asked if I could downshift. He said I don't care one bit....at 65 I went into third, floord it and I was pretty impressed I only got it up to maybe 6k or less and at 80 or so in a 60 I thought I better slow it downlol Can't wait to find one for my price range!!!! Oh ya the interior was uber nice....compared to the srt4

[DarkSlide]

Subies pwn. I love my Legacy even tho it's slow as ****.

[dsmdarryl]

i would have driven it off a cliff

lol

wish i could afford one :(

[LastPewterZ]

[Andy]

Glad to hear your pointed in the right direction...all the talke of srt4 this or that got me scared. wrx's are definitely fun cars.

[DarkSlide]

And buying an SRT4 has a 90% chance of turning you into a d-bag...no lies.

[Natty32V]

I almost fell asleep the last time I drove a WRX. :gay:

Must be nice to have the money and garage space to keep a dd and project car....

[Johnny]

^it is nice, and room for a bike too!

[Johnny]

oh and fox bodies ftl

[C.J.]

just buy a wrx, you will be happy.

[roo]

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet but have you test drove a V6 Camaro? I think they are pretty close power wise to the WRX.

Go drive one. You won't even think about that WRX again.

[roo]

lol , yeah brook is loaded. Total value of all 5 of his cars added up, $1,759.43

[BossRoss]

v6 camaro ftw. it was my first car. 1991 rs 5 spd

[Natty32V]

^^^Good to hear you got blessed with a sick v6 camaro for your first car, this if not my first car. Will be my 3rd, and yes Ive driven a sloww ass v6maro and it was extremly unfast.....if you guys are so insistent then I think you should invest in one!!!! ya ya thats a good idea

[BossRoss]

that v6 camaro took down a ford probe gt with the turbo/supercharger. w/e those came with

[Natty32V]

I didn't know any Probes came with and forced induction....the GT's, atleast the last body style was just a 164hp V6...???

Holy ****, you've owned 2 cars in your life :eek2smiley:

So the 24 extra hp and 8 less ft lbs you get with the WRX take it out of the "extremly unfast" category and make it fast?


If I could afford a V6 Camaro you could bet your ass I would be all over it.

Ok again, maybe 3rd or 4th time, I could easily afford an LS1 or a sweet v6 but RWD is in my way.....If I were to get a camaro I could get an LS1...k
And how many of you drive RWD as your DD???

Are you saying that sarcastically or truthfully?

[roo]

I'm asking you what is wrong with RWD as a daily?

[Natty32V]

I guess Ive always had this mental block for RWD as daily but I guess a lot of ppl do it....maybe I should......

[Cobra Commander]

I love driving RWD's in the winter.

[LastPewterZ]

I DD my RWD

[dsmdarryl]

the dsm would be rwd if i had money

all but one of the cars i've owned have been rwd. and that car got hit by a deer so it didnt drive during the winter neways so i was left to drive around winter in my 98 formula firebird

[DarkSlide]

RWD DD's are great.

[Johnny]

^truff

[Lepa]

ls1's work great in snow, jeigh parked his audi for the winter and drove his ls1.

[c0z]

I guess Ive always had this mental block for RWD as daily but I guess a lot of ppl do it....maybe I should......

Haha wow.. you've been listening to your parents bs too much. RWD is just fine for a daily.

[Cobra Commander]

Unless it is a 77 Plymouth Fury. That pos sucked last winter.

[roo]

^lol, yeah when he said that it reminded me exactly of something my dad would say when I was 16. YOU WON'T GO ANYWHERE ONCE THERE IS SNOW ON THE GROUND!!! STAY AWAY FROM RWD!

Pissed me off. He wouldn't let me buy a 91 RX7 TII because it was RWD. ****er only had like 35k on it and was mint.

I think it really effected me later in life. I would leave my truck in 2wd most of the time when it snowed driving around Denver just because it made me feel like I was rebelling! :headbang:

[Natty32V]

Is there any RWD cars in my price range that still get like over 20mpg??? I really don't NEED 4 doors...when I was 16 I used to think that I would never get a sedan...lol

[Natty32V]

Don't even mention a v6maro you ****ers...lol

[MadmaX]

3800 V6 5sp Camaro, EPA rated at 17city, 28 highway.

[MadmaX]

*ahem*

My friend has one thats an 04 auto and it runs damn strong for what it is

[C.J.]

my LS1 got 14mpg ripping around. My STi gets 20-22 mpg beating the snot out of it. I can floor it 20 times a day everyday and somehow still manage 20 mph.

Well GM has a supercharger kit for like 2400 and that and exhaust equals mid 14s so...idk im ready for a manual

[Js04sILVerBullet]

^ yeah manuals are always a lot funner to drive!

and do you have a link to that supercharger kit so i can give it to my friend? thanks

[C.J.]

did you seriously suggest modifying his automatic cavalier?

[Js04sILVerBullet]

did you seriously suggest modifying his automatic cavalier?he swears by his cavalier. I have tried to convince him to get a V8 sports car but he sais he rather stick with his car

[C.J.]

well granted that a BUILT turbo/blower ecotec motor can make some decent power

not a ****ing chance N/A

[Thunder]

I can floor it 20 times a day everyday and somehow still manage 20 mph.

damn you must have like 50 hp.

[C.J.]

[Natty32V]

that blower was somethin I drooled over for like a year....It would be fun. BTW that kit fits autos and manuals.....the HAHN 20g Turbo kit for like 4500 (watch some youtube videos :)) is for manuals only:pissed:

[roo]

That wasn't a joke

ohhhh....tough guy

ok :confused:

Get a V6 Camaro, OR ELSE......

[95gsx]

Yea! Get a car everyone and their mother drives. IE Camaro, Mustang, and Firebird. You really want a nice RWD car get yourself a Buick grand national or a jeep wrangler and turbo it. Why drive something everybody drives? You could save your money and buy a new 09 camaro. Get a VR4 or something unique.

[C.J.]

vr4.....worst idea ever.

[Natty32V]

That wasn't a joke

ohhhh....tough guy

ok :confused:

Get a V6 Camaro, OR ELSE......

I don't like you stop posting after me....

[roo]

I don't like you

woot

[Cobra Commander]

Get a VR4 or something that is a complete piece of ****.


I couldn't have said it better myself....

[MadmaX]

If he's never had a fast car before he might think that's how much a car's supposed to break.

I don't know why else someone would keep one.

[Boostedbuford]

ize get 12mpg in my ls1:(

[Cobra Commander]

I got about 16 mpg beating around Lincoln with 4.56s in my Cobra. lol

Gas mileage doesn't get along well with me. I like to floor everything.

[C.J.]

me too

[Boostedbuford]

C.J do you by chance go to UNL?

[C.J.]

sure do, there everyday.

[LastPewterZ]

Get a VR4 or something that is a complete piece of ****.


I couldn't have said it better myself....

Ya, you might as well buy a keg for you and yourself get REALLY hammered, sit by a bond fire while throwing stack after stack of twenty dollar bills into the flames.

I'm pretty sure this is what's like to own a VR4, any insight from actual owners would be great.

[Natty32V]

UNL is for smart people....SCC is for people who have ADD like me

[C.J.]

what?

you bought a wrx yet?

[Natty32V]

nope, sucks that I won't be gettin one till march/april. The cavi will have to be driven in the winter:pissed: Oh well something to look forward to, I guess.

[Natty32V]

Although this Saturday Im meetin this guy from Omaha to test drive a skittle....just wanna make sure Im makin the right decision

[C.J.]
