@@tomgogal5379 Hi Tom great to hear, lol i have been think of an exaust cat back also and im still waiting for my car to arrive, but it should land here in OZ by the end of August. I agree with you on the exaust, i just want a nice tone, i happened to go visit a friend that runs a Subaru workshop and there was an STI there with the Invidia Q300 and it sounded perfect, no drone at all, cat back. I think the Cobb and MA exaust you are thinking of is a good choice also 👍
The yellow brake parts are called calipers. Order your brake parts direct from Brembo. If you replace the pads before it's needed, and your rotors haven't experienced any hard stops (Warping and heat spots) - you can just pad slap it. All four pads were only $90 TOTAL direct from Brembo.
When i bought my 2019 Sti BS aside, I didn’t even test drive it. SALES PERSON- “Don’t you want to test drive?? ME- “For what?? I already knew what i wanted when i came in here, i wasn’t just gonna test drive it!” SALES PERSON- “Your crazy”! So when i got the keys and drove off, that was the first time ever driving an Sti or Subaru and i fell in love with it. Two years later i don’t regret it! I’ll Subscribe to your channel bro. I want to see what else you do in the future, maybe i will do a couple of vides of my Sti and my mods!
I didn’t test drive mine either 😂 I had driven my friends once and That was it. Placed a deposit on mine when it was still in transit. Was the only one to ever drive the car
That's funny, I also walked in saw they just dropped a brand new 2021 sti of the truck they had to pdi it so it had 4 miles on it, all I did was make sure there wasn't any damage from transportation, it all checked out perfectly, as I was signing the paperwork another few people came to ask to try and buy it but the salesman had to go tell em it's sold and to quit trying to touch it 😂
I just picked mine up this December as a Christmas gift to myself for all the hard I’ve done. Been a dream car of mine for the past twenty years since my high school days and playing gran tourismo. I remember playing the Wrc rally car all the time. It’s a weekend ride me and I baby the hell out of the car.
I bought my 2017 sti brand new. Didn’t have to test drive it coz I am so excited! 30,000 miles later, With zero issues, I am still inlove with it as the first time I drove it out of the dealership parking lot. You don’t even have to subscribe to satellite radio because the rumble sound itself is music to your ears!
I bought a 2021 Subaru wrx limited , after 2 months i traded it in for a 2021 Subaru Sti limited. Best decision I’ve made. If anyone is reading this just get a STI and don’t settler for a wrx.
I recently got a new 2020 WRX from the dealer not knowing how to drive manual. That same day about an hour before heading to the dealer I drove my friends old manual car just so I can drive off the lot in my new car. That’s how determined I was to get this. Cool vid btw.
I've been looking at STIs lately, there isn't anything in the market for four door sports sedans, and i love the practicality of them. especially because it is one of the few sedan sports cars that come in a manual
I owned 2006 hawkeye... and a 2006 Evo IX MR back when I was in my 20's... Sold it because I couldn't afford the gas mileage and exhaust drone gets tiring on the highway. In my upper 30's now. Your vids make me want to come out of my responsible adult Honda CRV and come back to a manual turbo 4 banger as a weekend toy again...
Owned 2011 wrx 57k miles totaled by 81 yr old lady 2013 wrx 89k stage 1 stimikey pro tuned since 30k no issues ! 2017 sti stock 58k miles. Maintain them and they last don't flog 6th, and run good fuel. 👌
@@outsideboy23I personally only drive mine on the weekends cuz I take mass transit to work, but it’s all preference. I don’t see why not.. it’s a great car all around. Just remember I have a WRX, so it’s not as stiff as the STi.
Just got a 18’ wrx with 27k miles a month ago from Subaru. Traded my 09 wrx in for it and definitely worth it. I love the EJs and the subie rumble but the FA, got to say it’s easy to hate it and to love it as well.
Great review. I agree. Just got mine 2 days ago. 15 miles on the clock. Ironically my last sti was a 2005. That 2.5 engine burble is music to my ears, and my therapy.

Honestly I wanted to be blown away when driving the STI compared to my 2020 WRX and I wasn't. 8k is a lot of money extra and I wanted to leave saying wow this is lightyears above beyond my car and it wasn't. It was very good don't get me wrong but that 8k I wanted to be blown away. I think 100 hp is a good standard. My last car was a Mazda 3 at 155 hp making a jump of over 100 hp was a moment I said yes this is amazing. So I think when the new STI comes out if it's 100 over the WRX it's time to upgrade.

@@moonman_8935 Great comment! I'm considering picking up a 2020 STI and the resale value just sold me on definitely getting it. I dont plan on keeping her more than 3 years max.
Ok just sold my STI at 10K and got the performance Tesla model 3.... No brakes No maintenance No more premium gas 15k back from state Autopilot Fastest thing on the street Get the model 3 performance. I promise you will thank me. All love Serg!
Teslas are super cool, don't get me wrong. And they are fast as hell. I was told by a Tesla owner that the warranty is void if he changes so much as a tire by himself. Is that true?
Nah, I had both too. I think the stock STI is more friendly to drive than the stock WRX because of shifting IMO. They ride almost the same. I don't feel a difference. The transmission and the steering is superior to the WRX.
This is a really great video and a really beautiful car I have a 2018 sti, all black, however to do my brakes is very cheap since I get them done myself
My 2019 sti limited is at 15.3k miles now and well....gas mileage freaking sucks, factory Subaru sti map sucks Rev hang 😑 but with a good custom pro/dyno tune, it'll be a solid clean runner.
@@will3362 rev hang just a bit then drops, factory down pipe, header only an AEM intake and a Tomei Expreme Ti catback installed, although I do have the Tomei ELH, Invidia Catless Down Pipe, IAG AOS v3, GDT mod and a GrimmSpeed FMIC with the support bar not installed yet.

I’m 24, I’ve been into bikes my whole life never owned and a fast car only had 2020 R1, just picked up a 2018 wrx sti with 58000miles, i absolutely love it and it’s sporty enough for me, I was wondering if you think that’s a lot of miles or do I have a lot more room for more miles?
Wheel/tire specs? Rear control arms? Alignment specs? I lowered mine .75” on 9.5 + 38. 265 tires rubbed on bumper clip, went down to 245, but wonder if I could have gotten away with 255’s
Hi! I’ve seen that you have got an Advan Sport’s tires on your Subaru. You said that you love drive your STI and I would suggest you to try the Advan Fleva V107 that are to much better than the sport! I always drive my 17’ STI on mountain roads and these tires (245/40/18 97y) are feeling amazing! Have a nice day mate! Cheers Alex 🥂
Hey fellas I need some advice here. For someone who has no mechanical knowledge on cars. Is it a dumb move wanting an sti? Are these cars high high maintenance and should I stick to FA platform for reliability... please let me know as im still very young, don't have much money to support things if a motor blows on me.
Just picked up an 18 two weeks ago with 19k miles. Love the wheel setup, what suspension are you on im assuming your wheels are 18x9.5 38 offset right? Im in VA to!
20 mpg and $90 an oil change is awesome lmao... never own a BMW I get 12 mpg running 93 and my oil changes are $200 every 5k miles! Sick car though 🤜💥🤛
Do you feel like you can do long road trips in your STI with no problems? Like comfortably? My wrx has been good and I like to do long road trips. I just want to make sure the STI is okay with doing long trips too
Amen thank you so much I love u and God loves u more than you could ever imagine Give your life to God not forcing you to just tryna help repent, live for him, read your Bible, and pray everyday, and live faithfully by him🙏🏾❤️‼️God bless everyone and protect your family🤍
Does your STI have a engine heater function or something similar to get the car started when the temperature get really low? Where I live it can get really cold so it would be cool to know small stuff like that.

Autopilot
Fastest thing on the street
Get the model 3 performance. I promise you will thank me.
All love Serg!
Buy it for me
@@SergiRodas sell your sti and get it. It’s cheap man.
Jesus man 15k back at the end of year really? thought it was sum 7k.. sheesh
@@bz7670 yup. $7500 from state, 2k from Tesla, and $4500 from your electric company.
⚡️ 🚗 💨
Teslas are super cool, don't get me wrong. And they are fast as hell. I was told by a Tesla owner that the warranty is void if he changes so much as a tire by himself. Is that true?
Nah, I had both too. I think the stock STI is more friendly to drive than the stock WRX because of shifting IMO. They ride almost the same. I don't feel a difference. The transmission and the steering is superior to the WRX.
Best sounding Subie IMO
This is a really great video and a really beautiful car I have a 2018 sti, all black, however to do my brakes is very cheap since I get them done myself
I'm glad the video wasn't just someone's face the whole time talking.
Im tryna cruise with you I have a all black like yours and you go everywhere I go 😂
Heard
Thank you so much for making this video. I am now gonna get one of these 100% :D
Between the STI and the Lexus IS350 I choose the Lexus, I want both 😬
I can’t wait till I can get my sti
20MPG for a full AWD manual isn’t bad. from the vids i’ve seen i think it’s mainly dependant on how you drive it lol
I've been out of the subie scene for two years and I miss the rumble. Nice car bro
Nice bro 😎, I’ve got 2019 sti , 25000 miles and agree with your take.
Damn that exhaust is musical!!!
My 2019 sti limited is at 15.3k miles now and well....gas mileage freaking sucks, factory Subaru sti map sucks Rev hang 😑 but with a good custom pro/dyno tune, it'll be a solid clean runner.
Rev hang? You sure you didn’t buy a wrx with a sti badge?
@@will3362 positive - 😄 bought it at the dealer
@@will3362 rev hang just a bit then drops, factory down pipe, header only an AEM intake and a Tomei Expreme Ti catback installed, although I do have the Tomei ELH, Invidia Catless Down Pipe, IAG AOS v3, GDT mod and a GrimmSpeed FMIC with the support bar not installed yet.
@@veasnayem598 that’s crazy, I have a 2020 and don’t feel any rev hang. I thought it was only a problem with 2015+ wrxs😅 my bad
@@will3362 it's all good bro, your car is looking real clean and sounds amazing as well.
Looks good in black.
I think the reason the steering feels so great is because it’s still using hydraulic power steering. Last of a dying breed.
I like this review... From a regular guy talking to the guy, who's maybe on a budget, looking for a sporty AWD daily driver with some power.
That’s exactly my goal with my videos. I’m no car expert. I’m an enthusiast but not a mechanic. At the end of the day just a person who likes cars and want to share my honest thoughts
Beautiful car. What lip is that ? Mod list ??
the fa motor is a NON interference motor. it has a timing chain. not a belt. that is a huge plus.
I'm here to and just got my 21 STi, breaking her in was difficult, but after the nuance of understanding how she was telling me it's like violent silk on the road 😍
Love your video bro!! Your STI is a BEAST!! I love my 2010 STI Hatchback also!!
We all miss those hatches!
I wish that Subaru would bring back the STI in a hatchback, but that is not going to happen, unfortunately.
What part of VA? We should meet up! I would absolutely love to see this car in person, I just got the 22.
I’m 24, I’ve been into bikes my whole life never owned and a fast car only had 2020 R1, just picked up a 2018 wrx sti with 58000miles, i absolutely love it and it’s sporty enough for me, I was wondering if you think that’s a lot of miles or do I have a lot more room for more miles?
I’m thinking of buying one as my first car as a 20 year old is it a good choice
No duh, but I’m sure you got a Turno Bmw
Wrx , look up more research but it’s an amazing car
Wheel/tire specs? Rear control arms? Alignment specs?
I lowered mine .75” on 9.5 + 38. 265 tires rubbed on bumper clip, went down to 245, but wonder if I could have gotten away with 255’s
Love my 2020 STi.
It’s considered an intermediate sedan not full size. Dodge Charger is considered full size or Toyota Camry. WRX is the same size as a Toyota Corolla.
Love the video-- but no matter how low I turned my volume on my pc and youtube's, your voice remained a constant scream in my ear (lmao)!
im a simple man, i see that opening shot and press like
brothers nice car just want to ask specs of your wheels and offset and tire size too any answer will be appreciated
What is the tint percentage you got there I’m looking to get my wrx done and I think yours looks perfect! Thanks in advance!
Sounds & looks great. What headers are you running?
What was the exhaust you put on it ? Does that exhaust void the warranty? Or no?
Great video will subscribe!
Hi! I’ve seen that you have got an Advan Sport’s tires on your Subaru. You said that you love drive your STI and I would suggest you to try the Advan Fleva V107 that are to much better than the sport! I always drive my 17’ STI on mountain roads and these tires (245/40/18 97y) are feeling amazing!
Have a nice day mate!
Cheers Alex 🥂
Hey fellas I need some advice here. For someone who has no mechanical knowledge on cars. Is it a dumb move wanting an sti? Are these cars high high maintenance and should I stick to FA platform for reliability... please let me know as im still very young, don't have much money to support things if a motor blows on me.
What wheels and tires are those? And what suspension are you running ? Love the stance, I have a wrx but it looks identical to yours
Just picked up an 18 two weeks ago with 19k miles. Love the wheel setup, what suspension are you on im assuming your wheels are 18x9.5 38 offset right? Im in VA to!
Love the STI! Thanks for posting!!!
This is a compact sedan. Why do you keep saying it’s a full size sedan?
What are those rims! They are gorgeous!
20 mpg and $90 an oil change is awesome lmao... never own a BMW I get 12 mpg running 93 and my oil changes are $200 every 5k miles! Sick car though 🤜💥🤛
What mods you have on the car ?
Looks lowered, front bumper lip ..
Love the STI but i got the WRX for practically and since i daily drive it. I though it was the best fit for me.
Needed this. Thanks bro
Do you feel like you can do long road trips in your STI with no problems? Like comfortably? My wrx has been good and I like to do long road trips. I just want to make sure the STI is okay with doing long trips too
Amen thank you so much I love u and God loves u more than you could ever imagine Give your life to God not forcing you to just tryna help repent, live for him, read your Bible, and pray everyday, and live faithfully by him🙏🏾❤️‼️God bless everyone and protect your family🤍
What dealer did you get your car at? I live in the Gainesville area. hope I see you some time 👌.
What car fitment do you have and did you lower it or roll the fenders???
Does your STI have a engine heater function or something similar to get the car started when the temperature get really low? Where I live it can get really cold so it would be cool to know small stuff like that.
