i was between wrx and tt when i was looking for a car. I decided on a tt because less people have them/mod them and the tt has better styling

i dunno??? im already getting sick of the smallness of the tt... plus with the tt i have to have 2 cars with the winters up here...

i've seen a couple of these b4, yes, awesome driver. Awesome car.
Not trying to hate, but issue with these is that they attempt to make it appear as if he did all those things in one take!
Yeah right!
This my friends is product of good editing. Great stuff none the less. I'd rock an Sti
Thing that sucks about TT's now is that nobody is making NEW products for it anymore

have any of you watch "the build " video!..? i did not know that the boxster engine looked like that?!
thats another reason why im kinda leery about a subi? i dont know anything about em...
the TT i knew a lil because back in the day i wanted a jetta.. so knew some with the vws. not much tho!!
yeah supposedly thats whats so great about them, they're flat which does a lot for the center of gravity and, as a result, handling. My buddy had an Legacy with the same motor, pretty cool set up.

I wouldn't bother with a WRX unless you get the STI...stock WRX transmissions are made of glass. STI can actaully take abuse. Several of my friends destroyed theirs as have countless others....

That "can" be a sign of a worn / wearing out clutch. A brand new one is prolly a lot lower

the one i test drove.. i wouldnt buy it was kinda beat up inside and out
the only kinda i would get is a white sti. they just look more bad ass...
how reliable are sti's?

If you pick up the new DC Sport magazine there is a video of him in there on the DVD, with his second run, and some other info, talking about how he wanted to drift backwards on the cone in second but the car wanted to die, so he had to do it in first, but either way he is sick, pretty similar slides as to what you would see outa a rally racer, however he does it on the pavement, so its kinda a cross between drift and rally....nutz!
