Everybody keeps saying that the car is ugly- its a concept! lol I bet it drives like hell though- that 250hp upgrade is what this car needs-
As several of the reviewers said, a turbo would not only throw-off the amazing balance, but also steal from the direct response they felt from the pedal- I AM hyped- hopefully this means Subaru is serious about what they said months ago about delivering a more powerful version- this is the car I'm waiting for- I'll be first in line next year to get one Only thing they could have put on the concept is those golden rims |

A bilstein kit for an Audi Bilstein pss10 48-147231 2336.82 from shox.com not including springs was about this much, I have seen them in the five digit range for the Koni, Eibach set up. I like my arms where they are, I prefer not to give them up for my suspension. They probably spare no expense for test bed cars.
It was sweet to see Bilstein on the STi though

Wheels don't suit.
Kit is underwhelming. Needs to be much more aggressive. Rear spoiler is -- hang on, THAT'S A SPOILER?? Bonnet needs to be colour-coded. Only nice thing is the roof really, and maybe the exhaust. |

Now to teach you and everyone else reading the difference. Dry carbon fiber can have a glossy "wet" or matte "dry" look to it. Wet carbon fiber can have a glossy "wet" or matte "dry" look to it. How can you determine which one is which from looking at it? You can't. The terms "Wet" and "Dry" carbon fiber refer to the manufacturing process used to make the pieces. Wet carbon fiber needs to have the "wet" epoxy poured on. Dry Carbon comes pre-impregnanted with the resin thus, "dry". Dry carbon is exorbitantly more expensive, but usually has fewer air bubbles/pinholes and is much lighter. P.S. You can paint wet or dry carbon, even if it has a matte or glossy finish. |
