opinions on 2011 Subaru STI

to hear so many people say the Sti sedan is ugly... and the wing is horrendous? are you people smoking crack before you get out of bed in the morning?

urvokbm is an unknown quantity at this point
Default I'm absolutely shocked

to hear so many people say the Sti sedan is ugly... and the wing is horrendous? are you people smoking crack before you get out of bed in the morning? no disrespect intended but I'm willing to bet that every person who feels this way is over 40yrs old, and is clearly not an enthusiast. my dad is 51, and I'm 21. we both agree that the 2011 Sti is one of the best looking cars on the road. I know we are all entitled to our own opinion but if you beg to differ you must have terrible taste in cars. the ONLY thing the Z has on the Sti is elegance, or "class" as some like to put it. remember we drive a sports car!!!

All the benefits of a WRX without the performance...

The wing is pure "boy racer". The car looks sporty, but not classy in the least. I'm not yet 40. The car looks nice, but its styling is over-aggressive with a huge wing.

Also, "I know we are all entitled to our own opinion but if you beg to differ you must have terrible taste in cars"... That's a troll statement if I've ever read one.

I'm sorry but taking a $15k car and adding a spoiler or what not doesn't make it look much better. People don't buy the sti purely for looks, just like people don't buy a civic si just for looks. The sti looks ok but it will never turn heads, people will never stop you to ask what it is. No offense to sti owners. It's not a bad looking sedan.

That probably depends on where you are. The wrx actually gets a ton of attention, even in silver. A lot more than I'd like to be honest.

Of course, part of that just comes from the fact that you can't buy one.

I guess this state has a lot of wrx so the sti blends in. But take off the spoiler and only an enthusiast would know it's a sti.
