2011 STI Video.. I searched

Not sure if any of you have seen this but I have to say it looks good in white... and this looks like a base model without the BBS wheels. Enjoy

Wow a pass through trunk!

But the car still looks kinda fat, much better but still heavy looking. That front grill plastic.... hmm so you have a brake cooling duct and then you vent it 4 inches later ?

But it does look like the STI is starting to get back on track and less like a toyota matrix.

Now all we need is an evo 11 thats 300lbs lighter and 360HP to come to the party

I like how the rear fenders were done. I wish they could have worked on the rear bumper some more to try to make the back end look a little smaller.

Untill they make a better motor Im not gonna even look at another STi....They keep putting the same crappy hypereutectic pistons that fail at stock power levels, why I have no clue.

Some forged pistons sure would help put the durability questions to bed. I think there can be some emissions certification challenges with them, but there are factory-built cars out there with forged pistons.

Definitely looks like they just chopped it up from the hatch. Body lines in the rear do not flow well at all. The front is ok, but they seem to be using cheaper materials for a lot of parts. I'll take a 05/06 still anyday over the newer STi's...

I'll probably make some people mad, but I think the Evo X and GR STi kind of both went in the same direction around the same time - both got a little less focused and tried to appeal to a wider audience.

i still prefer the previous models before this and the hatchback. it doesn't even look aggressive at all.

This is a car that in a event that I win it in a raffle I will sell it right of way for a fraction of it. In other words I don't like it at all, in fact I dislike it soo much that I would be willing to not drive it and perhaps Pawn it or put it for a consignment or donation.

That is an ugly a$$ car and I don't drive ugly a$$ cars, period. This car does not delivers a total package, it delivers performance with uglyness and embarassing looks.
