Not that I don't like EVO's but :-/

Can't say it doesn't remind me of an Evo...
 
I'll chime in and say while it's a good car on paper, it doesn't have certain things I would've like to see (better seats and true LSD). It will be a good car, better than the GR / GV, but it doesn't tickle my fancy. The Fiesta ST does, even if it doesn't have a true front LSD, it doesn't have enough power to really overwhelm the front either, and it has true Recaros in it as well, something that SOA has failed at for the last 12 years.

What I'll really find funny will be the level of butthurt when all the WRX Bros go and put exhausts on the 2015+ and it doesn't have the 'rumble' :oops:
 
I found this picture on Reddit earlier. I like it... I'm thinking about trading my '07 WRX Limited in on one (non-leather/sunroof model)

Do it! Given the choice I'd just get base w/o leather or sunroof.

It almost looks like the 2015s are better left stock for a while, as the suspension was firmed up and aftermarket parts and tunes for the FA20 may not be coming out right away.

This. I have had more than one subaru owner try to tell me it's unique to boxster engine and know nothing about unequal length headers.
 
The 2015 WRXs will sound more like an inline 4 with an exhaust. The BRZ is proof, all the Bros wanna put UEL headers because they want the rumble, but make the car sound like a beat POS afterward.

No I did not love it. I felt the FiestaST seats (unsure what package it had) were better than the FocusST seats which had the Recaro's. It felt like they were too narrow/tight for me and I'm wide.

I came from a 2012 STI and a 2011 limited prior to that. The interior in the SI is ten-fold better. I couldn't believe how much creaking the interior made... sad actually since it is a $30k plus car.

Agree, the FocusST Recaro's are really narrow, even for skinny devils like @bootyluvr. Anybody put Recaro's in an SI?
 
I'm about 5'11" at 170 and I bought a focus st with recaros and anyone bigger than me is gonna have a hard time fitting in those seats. They fit me perfectly, they arnt made for big people. My dad isn't too much bigger than me and it's uncomfortable for him after 20 min or so in the driver seat.

I'm 6'2" 190lbs.

I'm not too much bigger than you. Guess it depends on the person.

At 6'1" 205 lbs our 2012 Si Sedan seats felt tight in the thighs for the first few weeks but have felt great for the last 106! Might depend on what you're coming from - ours was a '98 Civic EX coupe which has very comfortable seats but no bolstering.
