I have one. I am 42 and don't drive it the way the younger ones do. And he's right, it is very bad on gas. My 2023 Sierra Denali is far more economical than my STI.
James Burnside imagine being so insecure you have to shit on someone else’s dream which affects you in no way whatsoever. Let him do what makes him happy dude there’s always a better car.
James Burnside how is that for you to say? Are you gonna tell me what MY dream car is? Sorry but i guarantee you dont know fuck all about cars. Have fun driving your auto V6 mustang
I have to agree with some of the initial assessments. That's why modded certain items on my STI. I have a 2020 and drive it daily dirt roads and page roads. It doesn't matter, gas mileage depends on how much you put your foot in it to a point. I love my car. It makes me smile every time I drive it. If you can find one pre this generation that's a good shape, I'd buy it. I'm looking for one now. This is the first car I've had since my crotch rocket. It actually feels like it performs on the same level as a 929. RR
Alexander man if your gonna buy a car for mileage than fucking drive a Yaris or scooter, who gives a fuck about how much I get from a tank as long as u enjoy the ride
I have a complete stock O15 STI...Its an everyday driver. Still as much fun to drive as the first day I bought it. I did the mod thing with my previous car...never again. Still have the stock exhaust sitting in my garage..lol !
That is exactly why I buy them 2 to 3 years old under 30k because you're 100 percent correct 45 to 50k is way too high, but I can buy them all day for 27 to 31k with 30k miles that's the only way to buy one imo, I avoid that 10k drop from new and they stay around 20k
All these people in the comments saying "oh this is why buying a used wrx is scary", acting like they're not gonna do the same thing when they get it, it's a sports car! you rev it when it's legal (and maybe sometimes when it's not) cause you love that sound and the feeling of acceleration!
a boxer motor is like a gyro for the car lowering the center of gravity. and the movement of the engine cancels out opposing internal forces. hence the smoothness
I had a 2015 WRX with a wing and got stalked. Loved it at the light when a cop would see I’m a girl and a mom… It was def the exhaust also. A few blocks away and they’d know. I just traded for a stock 2019 WRX STi and I leave my neighborhood SO calm. Haha
I have a 2016 WRX with the FA-20 and it runs and feels so much more healthier especially with an accessport it PULLS i get full boost at like 3-4k rpms and i get 26 mpg plus even when I hammer that shit, dont get me wrong i love the rumble but I also like gas mileage and reliability. But anyways subies are awesome and they are all boxers !
I sold my 2015 WRX with the FA-20, bought the 2018 STI and I couldn't feel happier for my decision. The rumble, the whole feeling while driving the car. I suggest that you check on the Tesla if you like the FA-20 better. Fuel efficiency, acceleration numbers are amazing, but if what you are looking for is a sporty rewarding driving experience. Just listen to the Subi rumble fand even without considering the three great diffs, the hydraulic steering, the six-piston Brembo brakes, the linearity in the power delivery of the engine and its refinement, etc.
Yeah, I’m a mustang guy as well. I have a 2014 5.0 mustang, with a x piped exhaust and it’s loud asf. But you cant do what you in an sti in a mustang. Also, get an aftermarket exhaust, it’ll make it sound a lot better
Wanna unleash it? Here’s a simple 3 step starter program. 1. EQUAL LENGTH HEADERS. Who cares about the rumble, it’ll run way better and cooler, make more power, spool faster, get better mpg’s. And sound like a REAL WRC Subaru. 2. Aftermarket oil cooler and air/oil separator. That is a must, EJ’s get warm, especially one of the engine sides due to the UEL headers not allowing exhaust gases to expel as fast as the other. Take it from someone who has suffered ringland failure on why those mods are both a must. 3. Quality pro-tune. Obviously a dyno tune is best. Data logging through a Cobb apv3 also works well. A Cobb OTS tune can’t match what a pro tuner can do. Btw I went from 2 subies to a Speed6 and haven’t looked back
Outdoor Layne unless you have owned either you can’t speak on whether ones junk or not. I have owned both, and the Speed6 has no problems, with subarus I got to experience headgaskets on both and ringland failure on one BOTH at under 100k miles. For a daily the Speed6 is a superior car. More comfortable, faster stock, faster on mods, more reliable, etc. Damond Motorsports Speed6 ran a 11.7 on bolt ons stock turbo lol.
Outdoor Layne again, you haven’t owned either, YOU CANT TALK. Mazda’s have NEVER suffered from headgasket failure, your making that up, I’ve been on the forums, both Mazda speed and NASIOC for years, and the speeds have never been brought up with headgasket issues, where subarus have. My 08 Impreza had more rust then my 07 Speed6, I live in New England/northern New York my entire life where salt is spread all over the roads. Japanese cars in general don’t hold up like Germans in the rough weather areas. Tranny’s are glass in both cars lol, subarus eat shifter bearings constantly. The Speed6 is a superior daily to ANY EJ powered Subaru simply due to the fact that the engine is a maintenance hog that require lots of attention. The WRX with the fa20 is a far better car, it makes more power on bolt ons then a STi will, and it won’t eat oil like a EJ lol.
Outdoor Layne yeah, I’m sure you own a s4 and a golf r. The way you talk shows you know very little about cars since you have no experience with either. EJ’s are NOTORIOUS for burning oil. I’ve owned 2, my ej255 swapped gf8 I had years ago burned loads of oil, normally around 2 quarts every 3k miles, ringland failure, and was leaking headgaskets at under 100k miles on the motor, that’s reliable alright. And before I got my 2016 Tiguan, my 08 that also ate about 2 quarts every 3k miles, which the dealer told me was “normal” lol. Before my Tiguan I looked at a 2014 WRX, 17k miles and already been rebuild, ringland failure lol. They eat oil, it is a known fact. EJ’s have always been notorious for burning oil. The insults your throwing simply proves your defensive and find my points valid and cannot come up with a truthful logical defense because you have not owned one and cannot testify to the fact that they are a vehicle that requires a lot of maintenance and constant monitoring.
James Ortiz how did I lose that argument? I brought up valid points from personal experience, and I’m not the only one who’s had those struggles. And your comment towards mine is completely baseless and lacks any logic, your just a butthurt fanboy who dreams of owning one someday. Read my original comment. Don’t think those are valid points either? Go ask ANY reputable Subaru tuner, they will mention the exact mods to be done. EJ powered Subarus are maintenance hogs, plain and simple. They require lots of attention and monitoring. And FYI, I can afford a STi, my wife’s optioned out Tiguan cost more then a STi lol, but due to having a family a CUV was more practical and the VW’s solid feeling beats out any Subaru IMO..... my Speed6 I got for a very good deal with only 74k miles, I drive it to work and back every day. It’s a daily, not a project or a race car. WRX’s and STi’s are a dime a dozen, I was looking at some again but I can’t pass up a good deal on a comparable car that has a better interior and more room...
@@Grimblee- fuel isnt the reason you need to let it warm up. Chance of turbo oil starvation, increased internal wear, and tranny fluid is still thick as hell as well.
I have a new FA24 2023 WRX 6speed Sport Tec and have absolutely no plans to modify my weekend toy other than a light tint. The factory "tunning" is good, bordering on perfect with flat linear power, completely lacking the peaks and valleys of the older 2.0T DIT last generation model. It's just flat, tossable and very linear all through the power band. Personally speaking, I truly believe the key to owning a reliable and long-term ownership WRX is good maintenance and keeping the mechanical modifications to a minimum on top of this vehicle not being my "commuter" car. That title goes to a much loved 2020 Accord 2.0T Sport.
Love how you’re developing this channel man, literally had the exact same car ideas as you - wanted a wrx but couldn’t afford it so I picked up a 08 speed3 till the day I can get one. Love your channel keep it up 👌👍
if you want to save gas, drive to save gas. If you want to save gas get a Type R, if you want superior awd system get an STi. Two different cars though. I can get about 24-28mpg (us mpg) driving an STi, but that's super conservatively .i.e. (down hill neutral and cruise often). When you start flooring it everywhere, thats the biggest difference.
I have no doubt the wrx gets better mpg, if I drove a WRX conservatively, I'll bet I can get 30+ with ease. There's just something you can't compete when it comes to technology, like trying to compete a rotary phone with an android phone. There's so much you can do lol.
I just drove a bone stock 2016 STI compared to my 2018 550whp STI and its night and day. My "I" drive is way way faster then the stock (#) sport sharp. 17 psi vs 30 psi explains it all. To be fair my engine has upgraded everything except the block
Recently got a 2020 sti magnetic grey back in December last year, and I love driving it, was too quiet from factory so I went with a remark non resonated catback and it sounds perfect 🤟🤙
new subscriber here, see so much potential in u bro, keep the STI vids coming, im trying to grind for a STI as well. currently have a FR-S but looking for a bit more power and a car more practical
Lifeless HD how so? More spacious to bring more people, all wheel drive, I live in NY, and every winter i gotta garage queen the FRS cause it really isn’t smart or safe to drive with more than a foot of snow outside haha
How does four doors and AWD translate to practically when one is a driver’s car and one is a rally car? Clearly you’ve never driven an STi. A WRX would be infinitely more practical.
No, because he's on the other side of the road around a corner...Meaning he is driving into oncoming traffic, with very minimal reaction time if a car appeared in front of him.
Typical Subie douchebag. "It was.. so much fun going around the corners" Yeah, all that understeer as he cuts the blind corner and then ends the clip before showing how bad of a driver he is lmao. He'd get spanked in the canyons by a stock miata.
Not going through apex can easily understeer over a cliff, it is happening everyday. Better to go apex if you can clearly see both sides of traffic and slow down a lot if the corner is blind.
I was trying to decide whether to buy a 2017 sti or not but all the videos weren’t helpful! I ended up buying it anyways ! Finally a video where you launch it and actually let me hear it and you talk about the important basics and how it’ll be better with a cat back and good useful information not just yapping and yapping it all away talking about well the seats are this the steering wheel looks nice.. the blah blah nah. You got to it thank you!! Even though I already bought it lol 💕😂
Oh my god yes. I live in New England where it’s below freezing in the winter and snows, and prior to my 04 sti, I had a 02 and 04 wrx, and every winter cold start they just smelled like raw fuel, not even just exhaust fumes. I have yet to own my 04 sti through winter yet, so we’ll see if it smells like gas too
You have to keep it over 3k rpm to get any power out of it. Everything has 300 hp these days, even a V6 Camry. Insurance is absolutely ridiculous considering its relatively low numbers. But it's one of the most ticketed vehicles in the US.
It better be. Because if it has mods and it breaks some of these dealerships won't honor the warranty. I just put a cat back on and left it at that. Still blew an exhaust pressure valve and my computer. But the dealership repaired it.
Lol I own a 2015 sti. Just got it recently. Have to say after watching a few vids of yours, I think you're a really good driver and shift really clean and I think you're funny as he'll to watch haha. Keep it up brother. Hope nothing but the best for you and have fun and be safe on the roads 😁😁✌
I just purchased one in Phoenix. Was only able to drive for one day and had to go out of town for a week. Can't wait to get back to Phoenix to drive it more. Soooo fun!! Thanks for the vid. I am Zonie myself.
wanted to ask how do u downshift , it looks so smooth lol, do yu press clutch , rev, then go into lower gear then let clutch go OR do yu press clutch , go into lower gear then REV b4 slowly letting clutch go? if my question makes sense lol
Emilio Martinez haha you think a wrx has lots of rev hang? Try driving a stock Impreza. Literally Have to wait a whole second or two before releasing the clutch or it will lurch
Nice car but they need to seriously soundproof the cabin. Listening to that noise would be highly annoying especially if you're cruising the high way and talking on your phone
on your back road drives, stay ready on the brakes. Had a stupid deer in the middle of a blind turn like one of yours, and we shot off the side of the road dukes of hazard style. I had practiced the road about 200 times and knew it well. But didn't know the deer. So make the call early to plow through it if you see one.
“These are BAD on gas” *floors it through first and second constantly* 😂 Hell yeah Cam 🤘

Right this shit got me thinking if these ones with 50k miles were driven like this the whole time lmao

When car guys drive, they always keep looking at the rear view mirror: "Yep, just making sure there's no cops behind me."
laughed at the squeal/cut and 4:27. cut lanes on blind turns and you're gonna have a BAD TIME
"give it the thumbs up" *throws up a peace* i dig it lmao
" 220 miles on 13 gallons of gas, good grief!" - Dumps the clutch in first gear and mats it into second. I'm dead

@@Juiceboxer0 but they dont have the same hp. Wrx gets 30mpg if you drive it like a puss.
They're not but they realize how crappy the mpg is and sell it right away which is why there are so many for sale on autotrader with very low miles
"gas mileage is horrible!" *Drives car WOT every gear and cruises at 5k rpm*
I'm sure he didn't buy for the gas mileage.
couldn't be more perfect of a car period
For a STI, the gas mileage is very good. My Evo X only got about 180 full tank.

the 2.4 in this car is going to be amazing!
It out sells competition in Australia , so it's still marketable with 305hp
love that subaru sound. Mazdaspeed 6 owner here.
Zoom zoom
Who cares loll
Gotta love the subi sound track.
New dad here, you better keep it down in my beautiful Mormon neighborhood.
really, the car sounds plenty loud...do you really think a Subaru is going to straight pipe an sti from the factory? honestly?
Can’t wait getting this in 5 days🙏🏽✊🏽♥️
Don't be apexing corners on the canyon roads. Seriously not cool.
It's more than himself. He's endangering other drivers safety as well...I'm totally fine with people getting arrested for driving recklessly.
Why not Because of understeer?
No, because he's on the other side of the road around a corner...Meaning he is driving into oncoming traffic, with very minimal reaction time if a car appeared in front of him.
Typical Subie douchebag.
"It was.. so much fun going around the corners" Yeah, all that understeer as he cuts the blind corner and then ends the clip before showing how bad of a driver he is lmao. He'd get spanked in the canyons by a stock miata.
Not going through apex can easily understeer over a cliff, it is happening everyday. Better to go apex if you can clearly see both sides of traffic and slow down a lot if the corner is blind.
I was trying to decide whether to buy a 2017 sti or not but all the videos weren’t helpful! I ended up buying it anyways !
Finally a video where you launch it and actually let me hear it and you talk about the important basics and how it’ll be better with a cat back and good useful information not just yapping and yapping it all away talking about well the seats are this the steering wheel looks nice.. the blah blah nah. You got to it thank you!! Even though I already bought it lol 💕😂
Damn I love the exhaust 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😎
The sound of this beauty!
Working 2 jobs just so I can get this car
Yes they are but a straight pipe cat back exhaust will multiply that experience ten fold lol
i could listen to that sound all day !!!
love the low rpm sound
2004 STI, Bone stock, always fun to drive. Could do without the smell of fuel on cold mornings though when starting.
Oh my god yes. I live in New England where it’s below freezing in the winter and snows, and prior to my 04 sti, I had a 02 and 04 wrx, and every winter cold start they just smelled like raw fuel, not even just exhaust fumes. I have yet to own my 04 sti through winter yet, so we’ll see if it smells like gas too
I’d say it is haha it’s my first turbo - 2015 Sti owner. Bone stock
You have to keep it over 3k rpm to get any power out of it. Everything has 300 hp these days, even a V6 Camry. Insurance is absolutely ridiculous considering its relatively low numbers. But it's one of the most ticketed vehicles in the US.
It better be. Because if it has mods and it breaks some of these dealerships won't honor the warranty. I just put a cat back on and left it at that. Still blew an exhaust pressure valve and my computer. But the dealership repaired it.
I own a 17 sti and I love it, good gas mileage option, yet loads of fun. It's a wonderful car
What's your insurance on it? because it is a sport. I just test drove one and I'm probably gonna get it next week
@@maddhatter8485 how's ur sti,what are your thoughts
@@maddhatter8485 How is it?
@@followerofgod6558 Assuming they didn't get it. Last video they uploaded was 2 years ago and it was of a game.
9:00 that’s what you call power sliding mah dude 👌
Aros it’s not called anything, it’s just loosing traction, call it what you want
Lol I own a 2015 sti. Just got it recently. Have to say after watching a few vids of yours, I think you're a really good driver and shift really clean and I think you're funny as he'll to watch haha. Keep it up brother. Hope nothing but the best for you and have fun and be safe on the roads 😁😁✌
Look at an anti lift anti dip kit and an oil separator to protect your engine from oil starvation in the twists
your shifts are so clean! wish i could shift like that..
I like how this guy gets more ‘n more exited the more he drives it the more excited he gets ahhh
Can we just think about the fact that he said boxer motors are sideways for a moment.
No I think he was talking about the turbo set up being sideways.
I saw a used sti that has like 15,000 miles, and the brake rotors look all grooved and shit. I couldn't imagine how the clutch and transmission looks
Thanks for share your thoughts bro, I'm gonna buy one soon .
Good vid man ! Love the car
This video makes me want to get myself another subie... sold my rex hatch and 06 sti hawkeye
Really chill video and review I like it
1:25 that's a nice thumbs up lmao
I just bought a STI from a WRX. I'm loving too. I can't wait to see what you do with your STI.
I just purchased one in Phoenix. Was only able to drive for one day and had to go out of town for a week. Can't wait to get back to Phoenix to drive it more. Soooo fun!! Thanks for the vid. I am Zonie myself.
The sound bro sick
i noticed if u floored it car doesnt like it but if u play on that gas pedal and get the hang of it….it rev high and u can feel every push of it.
I bought a 2013 sti but regret it a bit because the interior in the 2015+ is so much better
But yours looks better
Act Nasty from the interior or exterior?
Almost bought a 2017 wrx sti but I passed on it. Going to keep editing until I find a great deal.
wanted to ask how do u downshift , it looks so smooth lol, do yu press clutch , rev, then go into lower gear then let clutch go OR do yu press clutch , go into lower gear then REV b4 slowly letting clutch go? if my question makes sense lol
The first one.
I’m averaging 250 miles of 93 in the tank lol. Still ain’t mad 👍🏼
With just the COBB accessport stage 2 and a downpipe this car comes alive.
Of course this guy would have friends called 'Trevor and Jeremy' lmaooo
This is the best STI “review” video
ima buy a 2012 Subaru wrx Sti soon 👌🏽
love you're car bro 🔥
#Subiegang
Did u end up getting the 2012? Picked up my 12 STi and loving it!!!
It not fun but will last you longer if it stock
Dope video man
New subscriber! Subie owner as well! Looking forward for more vids on the car. 😁
Am in love with this car..
That exhaust was NOT stock...
yes it was
Ur both dumb it's open downpipe he literally says it braindeads
I’m not joking, I think this is my neighbor he’s got the same car, same color, same mods, he even looks the same, and he lives in the same city lol
Get deletes,ap and a burble tune...really fun lol.
Mod is fun, but stock is well well well balanced dude
Dude your first to second shift is money, I can’t do it for the life of me in a WRX. Maybe it’s easier in the STI
Brett McMillen That's because the WRX has a ton of rev-hang. The STI does not.
*Double clutch.*
Emilio Martinez haha you think a wrx has lots of rev hang? Try driving a stock Impreza. Literally Have to wait a whole second or two before releasing the clutch or it will lurch
Lol! I completely agree.
with tones of harness tonnes and lots of harness ( vice versa ).
Wow dude beautiful car
Bro my guy! You from az?! Lmao I recognized the street you where going down. Val vista in Gilbert shoot ima have to look out for you.
Nice car but they need to seriously soundproof the cabin. Listening to that noise would be highly annoying especially if you're cruising the high way and talking on your phone
on your back road drives, stay ready on the brakes. Had a stupid deer in the middle of a blind turn like one of yours, and we shot off the side of the road dukes of hazard style. I had practiced the road about 200 times and knew it well. But didn't know the deer. So make the call early to plow through it if you see one.
You have your own channel ? Never thought I would see you in a car video
Buying an 05 forester XT tomorrow. Wish me and my wallet luck 😂👍🏻
This will be my first car!
Rc Fun with what money
My dream car that I will hopefully have some day
