Traded my '15 STI for a Tesla Model 3. Dumbest move of my adult life. I really enjoyed my '15 STI and drove her spiritedly for 50,000 amazing miles and with zero issues. I think I'll hold out till next year for the redesign. I sincerely hope the STI will remain true to its roots. Edit: Didn't wait till next year. Proudly sold my Tesla for a '20 STI. Too much uncertainty with what's coming for STI. Edit again: WOW! Am I happy I followed my heart and bought the 2020 STI. The end of STI as we know it has arrived folks... If there is a car you're on the fence of buying, don't delay. EV generation is upon us and the days of ICE vehicles are numbered. Enjoy them while you can! Life is too short to sacrifice your happiness...

For as much shit I used to talk about the STI, after i had traded my STI in for a F80 M3, I still find myself tempted to go back to the STI. Power aside, the refined EJ motor, 6 speed, true AWD, it's simplicity, raw driving experience, driver focused feeling and it's hydraulic steering really brings back my joy and experience with the early 2000s late 90s JDM cars/ driving style; which is nearly impossible to find now in modern cars today, except with the STI. This cars simplicity and raw driving experience are going to be missed now that everything is electronic, robing us of what true driving experience is about. We may not see it right now but give it time, all of us who complained about the STI being "old" and "needs modern updates/ tech" will eventually realize the "old" & "outdated" feeling is what true drivers will crave, not a car that does the driving for us with its 20+ ECUs. We will all realize we were wrong for hating on the current STI and resent what we complained about. Once this old school STI is gone, it will take time for us to realize and wish there was still a driver focused sports car that retained that "old" 90s/ early 2000s JDM driving experience and style.

Just picked up a 2019 STI back in July (ordered it in late April), and I love it. Been wanting one ever since they debuted in North America, and finally went ahead and grabbed one this year. Was debating waiting for the refresh, but since just about everything about is is a big unknown at this point, I went ahead and picked up the current generation. Would feel uncomfortable buying the first few years of a STI with a new engine, and on a new platform, anyway. Better to wait a few years to see what kind of problems pop up, and hopefully give Subaru time to address any issues.

No, the turbo FA24 will be a welcome change. The EJ ran its course. Having torque down low is a wonderful thing. Hopefully they keep the body looking as good as the current STI and keep the Manual. Fingers crossed.

psedog ...Is the new FA going to be DI or Port Injection? If it’s DI then I’m going to look at the old EJ motor, Direct Injection turbo engines have too many carbon buildup issues.

As the owner of an 09 STI hatch I can't imagine buying a 2020 sedan. I mean WHY? For an extra 5 horsepower and green brake calipers? Good God man, we've been waiting forever for a new gen STI. Its at least 5 years overdue!

Still rocking my '14 STI last of the hatchbacks. First and probably final owner since I dont think I'll sell it. It feels like a car from the early 2000s in many good ways. Its like a car from the end of an era. Cars aren't like it anymore. It's rugged and raw compared to most cars these days and Its satisfying to drive.

@baldygrey27795 жыл бұрын
Some cars in that price range you mentioned like the Merc are just a whole different audience though. The driving experience is very numb in those cars, the WRX has always been a more raw experience. And even though these new ones are far more refined than what they used to be, they seem almost deliberately less so than their competition. And that's OK.

It’s a wonderful car, but for as old as some of the components are it is really hard to justify that price new. I picked up a low-miles 2017 lease return and saved over $10k. I highly recommend going that route if you find yourself wanting an STI in 2020.

I completely disagree about the lack of emotional attachment. I just bought my Type RA, specifically for the emotional attachment that it gives me to that original 2004 STi I had when they were first brought over to the USA. I owned a Focus RS, it was sharp but I had zero attachment to it. Golf R? Boring, no character. STi? Old, but in a "ole reliable" kind of way.... I know what she is and what she can do. And the sound she makes will forever get my heart pumping when I toss her about. The new model will lose the Subaru "rumble", and while technically it will be a "better" car, STi has always been about emotional attachment. At least, for most Subaru loyalists...

Hahahaha everyone wants to know. I got 16 mpg on average this week. That was me driving it 60% of the time in stop and go traffic, 40% open road. I’m not launching or doing any crazy stuff, and I’ve kept the RPMs low. I live in Southern California and Premium here is over 4 bucks a gallon. But I also knew that when I bought this car. If you want an STI, the last of the EJ, this is the most refined version of that engine (aside from the S209). You get exactly what you pay for, and this car is a blast. I love it.
