my c32 beats sti's on top end easily, e55's kick the **** outta me, and the 996 turbo beats e55's. consistently, not just from logic derived from one race and one condition. usually i don't like that type of "and therefore" logic, but you can't deny the superiority of the 996 turbo. it's an honor for the sti at like 35k to be even compared to e55 or 996 turbo, for that it is truly a great car value. the sti is impressive off the line launch, but look at the trap speeds, they don't stand a chance anything otherwise in the straightline versus e55's or 996 turbos. no disrespect to sti's at all, they are great cars for what they are, and a super bargain for their high level of performance. but, you cannot compare it to a porsche 996 turbo, especially with the logic that sti > e55 > 996 turbo. this is a porsche board and you would think there is bias in responses, but, the facts don't lie. sti is great from launch but can't beat e55 or for that matter a 996 turbo

Cobras are Nasty red neck cars
Great, I'm glad your adding value to this forum.

I'd rather have an EVOMR as a "winter beater" anyday.

My buddy had a fully built show winning subie and he said it was the biggest piece of **** in the world - he's now an EVO owner. LOL.

First of all your "Gay" comment is out of line.

Second, I had a



and a couple of these:






and though I thought the subaru was a great car, it started to attract too many kids (16 to 18 year olds wanting to drag me at every other light)....

Still a fun car to drive, though not in the same class nor performance level of a 996turbo and E55.

and btw, whats wrong with Yellow? It brings out the lines.

That's just wrong. I'd be offended if that wasn't so f*ing funny.

Ummm, I've raced both Sti's and the Kompressor E55's. Neither stood a chance. The E55 is one damn fast saloon tho.
