Mitsubishi isn't satisfied with that, which is why the Lancer EVO MR is coming.

And that's why Subaru has the Type Ra and the Spec C :)

It will never end. Look at it this way, the rivalry will probably create technology that will save mankind from space aliens and cure cancer or something....

Have either of those even been announced for release or actually shown in the US ?

And isn't it one car, as in the: Subaru Impreza WRX STi Type RA Spec C.

Nope, not yet. Hopefully if the MR does well, Subaru of America will step up and release a track prep Sti here. And then maybe they'll bring over the Legacy Sti, the Forester Sti, etc..

I wonder what the future of Mitsubishi cars are now that Daimler-Chrysler left.

What really sucks for me is that I put Infinity Kappas (I love 'em) in the Sunfire with a sub and it sounds about 1000X better than the WRX.

By the end of this summer, I'll have either Alpine, Polk, or Infinity in the Subaru. I wish I was made of money. Good thing I have lots of games and toys to sell. :)

Here's a pic of the 2005 STi interior, notice the standard CD player now :) It has an overall nicer interior to follow the lines of the new SAABaru 9-2X

And new color of '05, Crystal Gray

How about some of those rims I showed you in a gunmetal color?

I like almost eveything Rota makes. What a great company they are. Thanks for showing me those. I am reading everything I can about wheel offset, wheel size, and tire types.

I'm starting to lean towards the SDRs, or maybe one of the new ones they are coming out with.

Check out this:

There is so much I want to do with this car, I may need to take another job, or sell all my games.

The SDR are probably Rota's most popular rims on Subarus; good choice. Their new Torque rims look hot as well.

SDR's are affordable and hold up well on the road. Which set of tires are you thinking of getting? I can't recommend Bridgestone Potenza S-03's enough! They have the most grip out of any tire I have ever used.

I have no idea on the tires yet. I'm not sure if I want all weather year round tires, or keep the stock rims for winter tires. The weather in CT is fairly shitty in the winter months.
