what car do you drive? I've bought groceries in my Z before, any car can be a grocery getter imo. Even motorcycles... actually in a lot of countries where traffic is congested people deliver stuff using motorcycles because they can weave through traffic

Grocery getter definition on urbandictionary.com:


The STI looks like a sports car to me... are you implying it's not a sports car because it has 4 doors? If you look at all the features it has AWD, good brakes & suspension, etc...

It looks sexy, I'd like to get one if I had extra money and could justify having another car lol

Our Z is our grocery getter as it actually holds more than the G does in the trunk.................

Completely different vehicles in every single aspect including driving experience. For modability and straight line performance, the STI is leaps and bounds more user friendly. Looks are subjective so I won't even comment on that. I also cannot comment on track times however the STI is impossibly confident in almost every situation.

I commented on looks, but I said that was my opinion.

And I commented on track times, because stock for stock, the Z's NA power, more aggressive gearing, and RWD powertrain will get it around most tracks faster. That's my assumption, at least. Start modding, and who knows? My wallet's not deep enough for all that noise.

They're both very fast cars. They're both very fun cars. Both are sitting in my driveway.

Op, Your duplicate thread in the other cars section? Was moved here.

I see no reason to have two threads on the same topic.

OP, honestly the most cost effective and reliable way for you to get that much power would be to go domestic.

I actually like the STi Hatch back. I don't really care for the 4 door version. The only thing is that the interior is just ehh!!

It's not super pretty, but the seats are well-upholstered if less supportive. The stereo is better by a lot. And it's quite roomy.
