The most interesting thing to come out of this year's grand prix is a video I just watched from Jay leno's garage where he goes behind the scenes at McLaren at COTA. Check it out if you haven't, interesting stuff.

Someone convince me not to get a used Sti. I spent a good amount of time yesterday reading reviews and looking at car listings. I need to be set straight.

Just know the STI seats suck. Like they really suck. And your radiator will blow at 100k mi. Plus, they go through oil. About a quart a change until you find the right one. I used german castrol and loved it. Try other stuff, but dear go avoid mobile 1. An sti drinks it non stop. Haha Overall they are solid cars. Cheap HP from a Cobb AP and turboback exhaust. But they understeer and are not as much fun as the FRS (at least for my skill level). I dont regret selling mine. Only looking at a wagon as a 2nd car and i need awd for the snow. Otherwise i was looking at mr2 spyders for crystal or an ae86 for me. Lol
