i love this quote about the STi hood scoop.

The height and shape of the scoop is effective as an industrial-strength bug killer, with hapless insects sucked in by the swarm and severed on the intercooler's fins. Also, the shape makes it perfect for use as a skateboard ramp. It could be used as temporary shelter for a diminutive immigrant family. (Every morning we'd awake to find several people pacing impatiently under the scoop's cover, waiting for a bus.)

well, STi's not a bad car. It's more aimed at luxury and less hassle/less raw for us consumers (they're fat, lazy and always wanting something comfy) who doesn't like the pure edgy performance and body punishing rides as evo.

I think if they had the 2.0liter engine in JDM model in STI, it'll be a whole different story all together.
