Sti Kill

had a fun couple runs on the hwy the other day. 2 young guys in a blue wrx (aren't they all blue?) sti wizzzzed by me as i was cruis'in at about 85, (i can't let that go ), so my passenger and i look at each other and grin ear to ear.-- i catch up to them and then "rice by" them -- they had the biggest smiles we've ever seen, were really digg'in it. any way, they tried to keep up, so i backed off and let them get about 1 car off my bumper we both then floored it up to about 130 or so. i was real suprised at the outcome -- i know i'll kill a regular wrx from 70+, but i thought an STI would have a little more for me. no dice. his car on both runs didn't even seem to stay close for a second. we both hit our flashers later as we exited the hwy. pretty fun

STI's are rally cars, not autobahn cruisers.
They will roast you off the line (all wheel drive), but high speed chase, they have no breath. And, no, they don't only come in blue. They come in black, white, etc..as well.

Hasn't happened yet, although off the line it is close. the closest 1 got was their nose was at my passenger mirror, then i walked away as soon as we got over 60 or so
