Jay762 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 yup awesome looking wagon - hold out for the STI for your missus the difference between that and the wrx is worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quit Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 Yeah but what it would be used for the brakes and Sti seats are the only benefit really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 wider track, bigger wheel bearings to dissipate any heat build up, nice fitted mats with a logo - lots of little touches here and there :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby Pete Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Welcome along, another vote for the Sti hatch. STI also has i drive, better styling and 6 speed box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quit Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 I agree if it was for me but I spend my daysin a Octavia derv !! Only been out in y wagon 3 times since jae early sept She potters around with our little boy . Seen a few low mileage wrx on a 07 plate for about 5-5500 . As a sti hawk is 2k more , if I went sti route I would want to go forged 2.5 lump and serious power , then wagon would be used less so is some sense in both options just depends what's about when I hit that buy button Anyway cheers for welcome guys hope to see some f you at shows etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I've been looking at the Hawks as of late :D I would say STI is a better starting point for any modding car but like you said they don't come cheap :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quit Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 Yeah can buy sti bottom end for naff all so easy upgrade really when time comes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
