If they are gonna sponsor drivers they'll have to be more careful with their sneaker treads! I've got a few pairs of Puma kicks and my newest ones slip off the metal pedals in my Si really easily. My first time driving with them I had a near-stall incident when it happened and felt like a tool, lol.

They don't seem slippery when I walk in them... just on the pedals for some reason. Mine are the ones in the pic, sort of shows what the sole looks like.

cause the si gets better gas mileage
yeah those don't look like they'd have good grip... the shoes in the vid look much different. Who knows though

Haha, one trial one and they'd know there was a problem... I'm guessing the treads are better on the race sneaks. I've got 2 other pairs of Puma sneakers and no issues with those, just the one pair.
Because a Honda is more your speed?

LOL if subaru would get their *** with their designs it would help and it looks like they are taking the first step by separating the WRX/STI from the Impreza line only time will tell.

Would have been if subaru could have come up with it themselvesBRZ FTW
Yes the Si should be separate it would optimize the chassis for it's intended purpose. I was a longtime WRX owner but when '08 rolled around multiple friends and i were like WTF happened to our cars subaru has lost it No more wagon and we now have a mazda 3 and then the sedans came with the same reaction. (actually came up the other night and everyone still felt the same but with one saying it was growing on him 5yrs later mind you)
That is why i am glad that subaru is parting from the impreza line which could mean better bodies,chassis and if god really loves me and wants me to buy another subie a coupe (cause i doubt they will do another wagon) JMHO
