What you can't see is me in my Protege in the rear view mirror flashing my lights trying to get him to let me by!

Psshhhh... only 638bhp.. weak sauce.... :lol:

If it was optional, instead of having a flat-4 turbo, I would have opted for an LS-variant V8... although I love watching car companies battle to win the "Horsepower Wars" that are going on right now, it depresses me to see yet another car on the road that could smoke my STI with ease :(

300bhp is no longer impressive, even with gas prices skyrocketing, OEM's are still making big power :)

I think I'm aroused. No, I definitely am.

Dang.

Unfortunately, with the new EPA rules, cars like this will become things of the past very quickly.
