not sure what we'll end up getting, but we can get the tires for cost plus shipping through the dealership here.  |

ya. they are sponsoring SCCA for autocross this year. that means every member gets 15% off OEM parts at all their 7 dealerships, however, since phil's an employee we get cost. the tires are going to be sold for cost plus shipping though, so regardless, it's a great deal! |

Yeah most definetely! A discount is always a good thing. That is whay I miss about Fort McMurray is that I knew a lot of people in different places, so getting a deal was always possible.

I have been hearing more and more that the STi is a gas guzzler of a car. True or false? And if that is the case, would it not be better for Phil to get a WRX and mod it up??

they are all gas guzzlers due to the awd tranny. plus add a turbo, it's hard to keep your revs down. and he doesn't want an wrx. he wants an sti. that's been his "dream" car since they came out so for him it's a life goal. for me.... it's just another toy to play with. and the one he gets, i get a lot of say in cause he knows i'll be driving it too. lol |

Yeah I know.........but there are not bringing it to Canada. I was down at the dealership with my g/f's brother and he test drove a WRX. While he was doing that I was talking to the salesman about the Sti that was in there and I asked about the sunroof option not being available on the Sti. He said that it was, but only on the Limited version, and that it is not coming to Canada.
