No car comes with a "V4" engine..................it has a "flat 4" aka "horizontally opposed" engine. The STi is a decent car that can be modded to make great power at great expense and with crappy reliability(I have many friends with those cars from highly modded to stock). The AWD does make for some very fun cornering and is easier to recover from if you lose control. I was never a fan of the looks of the car and in most people's minds it is looked at as a high school/college kid ricer car.

With the SRT-6 you will beat all stock STi's in a straight line. Also as mentioned you will have the exclusivity of owning a unique car that most know nothing about..............but will learn to fear.


My two cents............spend them wisely.
