The STi and Accord have one thing in common, 4 wheels. The Accord would better compare with the Legacy, not an STi. Looks are always a subjective thing, I had a person tell me my 911 was an ugly car. Who cares ? People buy Chevrolet Monte Carlos, they are ugly cars, Who cares ? A lot of money compared to what ? What other car offers STi performance and technology for anywhere near the STi's price (with 4 doors to boot) ???

 

Even though I'm not an STi fan, I feel that the price is not that far off. There are no other cars in that price range that compete anywhere close to it for performance.

There is the MazdaSpeed Mazda6, it's similar in terms of features (AWD, turbo 4 cylinder, 4 doors, etc).... but it's not nearly as performance oriented.

 

Honda has the ability to put quality materials into inexpensive cars. For some reason Subaru cannot. $50,000 is alot of money surely they can make the car look a little more upscale.

 

Sorry, I wasn't that cryptic. The number of ? was just a random thing.
- no "e".

Nada.

 

I'll say his first car was a 69-70 mustang fastback with a 390
I once saw a 69 boss 302 wind it out and it gave me goose bumps. Still does thinking about it. The first model year that i could purchase new was 73. Really wanted a 73 transam. Phoned allover edmonton to see if they had or could get me one. nothing. The shaker hood scoop on the transam reminded me off the boss mustang. The way it would move with the motor and the air induction open when you revved the motor was awesome. The swirled aluminum dash was unique.

 

Those trans-am's were sweet cars back in the day. My dad had 2-3 trans-ams between the mid 70's and mid 80's... I remember being about 3 years old sitting on my dads lap and "driving" his red '86 trans am

 

Ok Lemme get in on this... Can I buy an "a"?

Or should we start a new "What was Xviper's first car ever" thread... With fabulous prizes!!! Like a grin and a handshake from "the man" himself next time we see him in person!!!
