I'd like to paint white for blue.....

 

Battle wounds

 

pinks are the sti lowering springs. do you have subs or anything in the trunk? i asked if you modified your suspension because i've seen some lowered sti's with their rears a little lower than their fronts. or is it because of the mammoth wing?

so... howd you paint em? i'm getting the grey/silver combo and i think gunmetal would look pretty damn good on the car.

 

Thinking about getting an STI because the S2k just isn't practical enough.

How would you compare the two?

 

I think those wheels look awesome...nice

 

your collection of vehicles is my dream!

 

Yes, I have a sub/amp enclosure (in the spare tire well) that weighs right at 25 lbs....and about 80 lbs. of coolers/Inca Kola back there...so that could be why.

You remove the clear coat (find sand paper or finishing pads) and then clean with alcohol solution (avoid Parrot Bay ) and voila...not a whole lot to it.

Silver w/gunmetal

 

You basically nailed it and I think you pretty much answered your own question. If I were to only have one car the STi would be the way to go.

STi: 6 months = 9,000 miles

S2000: 1 year 7 months = 9,200 miles....

R1: 2 months = 1,200 miles

 

something tells me the R1 will gain quite a few more miles over the summer (it would if I owned it....my fav bike )

 

Your car matches your house!!
