Normal WRX's are quick, but can be handled by lightly modded and geared 5.0's. Sti's on the other hand, as we all know, are waaay faster. 300hp, light as hell.

Wow man, i would be pretty happy with the results. Is your car an auto or stick? regular sti's have like 220hp, and are much lighter than our cars so, for a stock car you did good, now, my next question, how the hell did you find a mustang that has no mods?

Its not bad you just had us all confused. I thought you where a wrx troll coming to brag about beating a couple mustangs. I can understand the confusion.

No there not, they weight more then fox bodies. Its a common misconception that they are light, actaully they are not. And there very flimsy meaning if you lean on the side of the fenders they will dent. Im not kidding Ive heard this from STI owners.

I PWN my friend's 2005 STI.

If you go over to NASIOC, you'll see that in reality most STI's are high 13 second cars. The best time I've seen on that site for a stock STI was 13.5 with a 1.7' 60'.

Aye, they are fairly heavy. I believe my friend said his weighs 3400lbs.

The STI is a GREAT car. Outstanding handling, great feel, great power, AWD, six speed....
