AWD sports cars

The STI is a head turner, but in AWD sports car. Id say go German, Audi specifically. expensive to repair, but its a more comfortable ride, and stealth wealth is a virtue

Going to post AWD sports cars until I get responses.

I'd say go for an Evo ix or whatever if you've ever wanted one l, they're gonna appreciate sooner rather than later now.

I looked into the Audi options. They are expensive for new but seem just affordable for preowned. The problem I comever across with Audi though is that most of their quattro are automatic and I need stick shift since I drive with two feet and need that clutch pedal for that reason. They are hot though.

You know what's funny? I can't even find an evolution 9 where I live. They must not have made many of them.

>>13997318
lol no need to defend your need for a stick. Every car needs to be driven stick. But yeah new are very expensive, but also a new STI runs like what 35-36? you can get so much for that amount of money

>>13997352
Yeah they are in the same price range as the A4 Quattro. I wonder how hard it would be to get it in stick? I hear car makers, German ones specifically, are going away from manual transmissions in their sports cars.

Also the BMW 435i is a great car. AWD, straight 6 making the same horsepower as the STI, obviously more comfortable than the STI. also you have a stick option, or a 8speed auto

They hold value pretty well, if you can get a brand new one do it bro.

Otherwise you can find a decent used one for 20—25k. Overpriced for a used car but hey its an sti

yeah dual clutch autos are replacing sticks, and its a sad defeat. but to convert to a stick will also run you like 10K in and of itself if you bite the bullet and go auto

>>13997376
thats pretty much what an STI is. Its an over priced car, but hey, it has a wing and famous people rallied in them

Pick one. If it's not RWD, it's not a sports car. Deal with it faggot. You will always be using training wheels

He's an idiot but it really isn't a sports car

New mustang better than all these shit

>pick one

I'm more of a Ford fanboy but I would seriously be debating the R (you can probably get one for equal or less than an RS with VW's tarnished rep at the moment).

You guys are both idiots. STi definitely is a sports car.

Please tell me again why it isn't.

It's a grocery getter with AWD. Please keep wearing those rose colored glasses

>>13998990
A grocery getter that is probably faster than anything you have ever driven.

"Sports Car" is a very broad definition.

I know it won't change your mind or prevent future shitposting, but there are "Luxury Sports Sedans", "Sports Coupes", all sorts of shit.

The STI also has 4 doors, so no way it is a sports car. Right? Are you the same anon that says the Toyobaru isn't a sports car because it is a 2+2 and sports cars don't have back seats?

>>13997279
STI would be a blast. But if you are going to buy used, you will get ripped off. Golf R's are cool cars. I'm sure the Focus RS will be great too with all the praise the ST has gotten.

But if you are going to buy used and spend $25k on an overpriced STI, you should just buy a used 335xi instead. Lots of people say that 300HP in those BMWs feels like much more. And there is a lot of potential in those turbocharged engines.

>so much bench racing ITT
You have obviously never driven an sti, so much fun blasting around turns at 50 mph without having to worry about snap oversteer killing you like it would if you tried it in your precious bmw.

Anon, the choice in the end is yours to make, but take this into consideration. I searched for a semi-nice car with AWD, a manual gearbox, and the ability to seat 4. I needed AWD for the weather we get, I needed to seat 4 for my family, and I personally wanted the manual box.

I looked at a 328xi, a 2014 wrx, and an infiniti g37x. I picked the Subaru because of how it handles in snow and its safety ratings. Otherwise I would've picked the BMW.

Subaru has the best AWD bar none. Quattro can stand neck and neck, but other types of AWD just doesn't stand up.
