Always my favorite body style STi... Love it. How does it feel compared to the Celica? And if you don't mind me being nosy, how do you plan on seeing the Celica again?

It is one heck of an animal to drive. It feels much more planted and stable and faster than the Celica (obviously) but i feel like the Celica was more centered around the driver. The Celica feels nicer in the way of texture and driver comfort (more soothing) but the STi talks to the driver in the way of handling and performance feedback increasing driver confidence. As if it were taunting the driver to push harder. But I go to a track every time I feel the need to eat corners biggrin.gif Putnam Park being my favorite.
(my attempt at a Top Gear style review smile.gif)


But I made a deal with my best friend (whom I sold it to). Whenever he feels the need to sell it, he'll let me know first so that I can buy it back from him. I sold it because I do not have anywhere to keep it..
