This is just comedy gold.

"Should I buy an STI..." was the question, the answer "STI is better, WRX is better"...

I never saw him ask anything about a WRX vs an STi, lmfao!

Bottom line, it's your cash, buy what you want.

Then your one lucky mother fukcer wish I had someone to do that for me back at 21, but just a note and this is straight up, make sure your actually LISTED on the policy as a main driver for a given vehicle, as it may say that on the paperwork that anybody with permission malarkey, but if it's not listed or your not listed and your found to be a regular driver on the policy they will void it, don't know your scenario but just cover your own *** and check it buddy

If your all legit then of course go for the Sti! No brainer

Think you also need to factor in the rebuild costs of the chocolate engine

Go for the STi if you're sorted for insurance! WRX wouldn't even pop into my head if I had the opportunity you have!

False economy tbh. If you bin in it or get it nicked you get trade value not market value, plus underwriters want to ser your books prior to a payout. I had a policy before and am now with Admiral on a multicar one for that reason.

Surely is its for personal use, a trade policy will not cover it?

My policy allowed me to nominate one vehicle for personal use but I was still only allowed trade value if there was an issue. Plus you son't get windscreen and stereo cover like a normal personal policy. Hence why it's a false economy.

I loved my JDM STI in many ways, except some panels had tiny dents and paint was flaking off on some sections like spoiler and scoop. The engine can rev!

It's Beats by Dr Dre vs Bang & Olufsen.
