STI what a machine ...

So, After getting everything fixed on the 06 STI I truly am amazed by the car ... it's more of a driving machine than you can imagine ... It takes a little getting used to but once you figure out how to drive an AWD car it's like nothing else, especially when it's an AWD with 300hp and 300 ft-lbs of torque ... The car is lively and responsive to any condition you can set before it ... the potenza re 070 tires are great for dry weather and not the worst in wet but if I lived where there was more rain I would want a different tire on it ... If you haven't driven one, find a friend that has one and beg him/her to drive it for a while ... good luck getting the keys ... The keys to my wifes 04 STI while mine was in the shop proved impossible to obtain ... She didn't want to give it up anymore than I wanted mine to still be in the shop.
