Well, I took my STi in last night and traded it in on a 08 MS3 w/navi. I got it for 25,700.00 OTD I take delivery Thursday night, I cant wait (upbum)

 

[SwampAss]

What year STI and why? ROFL, no offense I love the MS3 and think its a beast but I would take an STI over it.

It was an 05, I had 42k on it. I need a hatch (got a dog and a kid now), and I needed to cut back to one car instead of having 2 (had a Chev blazer as well.) I wasnt about to pay 40k for a new STi, and 30k for a WRX what just lol - able. The MS3 is the best bang for the buck on the market (cool) Cant wait to start modding!!!! (drive)

Oh I agree the MS3 is the best bang for your buck I was just wondering. It makes sense since you need more room and what not. Best of luck and enjoy the cars! I would have gone for the new sti if i could have but thats just me bwahahahahaha.

 

[jbiird317]

congrats on the new car, let us know how much more you like it than your sti

 

[Sierra117]

I wouldn't take an STI/i over the Speed3. An EvoIX MR, yeah, but STI/i, no. Good trade. It won't be as fast, but I'm sure you'll love it.

 

[laloosh]

s*** we should have traded cars.....

 

[goose8651]

Did you get the MS3 for 25 with the cars trade in value? For some reason I am thinking not.

 

[Dream]

I got 21k for trade in and I kicked down 4700.00.

 

[goose8651]

now that sounds like a deal right there. great job.

 

[///M Compact]

Yeah, I would have traded you too...

 

[Dream]

Well they had the car since November (sticker on it was 26,600.00), the 2008.5's are coming in and they need all the 08's gone. I think what I paid is about right. I never pay msrp for a car

 

[ZooMIN3]

nice price, with Navi too? congrats on your new ride by the by!

 

[Powerslave]

you made the write choice!! i pull stis all the time and i have a navigation leather interior and i didn't spen 40k, by far thr ms3 is a better car for less money. more room, more refinment etc..

 

[Dream]

Thanks guys, cant wait to pick her up tonight! (friday)

 

[Dream]

Well, picked her up tonight! w00t! Love it so far. I must get some snow tires ASAP. Ill do a full write of it maybe tomorrow comparing it to my 05 STi. Cheers

 

[Young Roids]

Were you getting wheel hop like crazy in second and third? I took mine out today to try it out with the stock tires and they would spin and hop like crazy with the road conditions today.


P.S. what setup are you thinking of for snow tires?

 

[Dream]

I have been taking it easy so far, no WOT pulls or anything. I think im going to get some Blizzaks on the stock wheels.

 

[Powerslave]

yeah i took it easy on mine till that funny break in burn smell goes away
