Good luck with the sale. You'll like the STi. You'll miss some of the amenities that the Z has though (at least I do), like push button start, touch button

Good luck with the sale. You'll like the STi. You'll miss some of the amenities that the Z has though (at least I do), like push button start, touch button lock/unlock, true auto on/off headlights, nicer leather and a flippin' back up cam. Not a simple add-on b/c the head unit doesn't have an aux video input jack. The STi is easier to heel-toe shift (smoother) though I find. But, the steering could be a bit firmer.

My mods are slowly trickling in. :-)

Heard the ones in other countries come with the start button and leather recaros... the US always gets screwed over. How do you like the seats, I sat in a '11 sedan and it wasn't supportive at all... The seats in the Evo are much better.

When you get your STi might as well just continue this thread, since it's turning into a STi thread anyways.. hahaha

No kidding! Europe and Asia get push button and leather?

You're right. The Z seats are more supportive. The STi seats could use an adjustable lumbar support as well. That said, I was disappointed with the GT-R seats too, and the STi seats are no worse than those.

I think I will keep the thread open for the sti build and I'll make another one on the subi forum. Wouldnt it be funny if I got another car though haha. All this for the sti and end up with something else

As for the seats, I think they all suck (except the evos recaros). That's why they make aftermarket bride's
