      Alexandre Lessa it is a very beautiful model of the STI ;however, I've gotta say that my favourite model is the 2007 Impreza WRX STI. :p

    Hi Matt, (Subaruwrxfan)
    When I first saw this video in December 2016, an STI was just a dream. 2017 I bought a WRX, it was the only thing I could afford at the time.
    In 2022 I had the opportunity to purchase a 2006 Hawk STI that had everything I wanted.
    I still come back to this video every so often to remind myself why I love Hawkeye. Thank you!

    2006 or 2007. They're the most exciting to drive in my opinion, have a nicer interior than the 2004, great looks, and are smaller, less heavy and more raw than the 2008-2013 generation. Stay tuned for my 2012 STI review this week to hear more of my thoughts and comparisons between the two models.

    The 06-07 STi's are so hard to find unmodified, I don't mind after market exhausts and intakes, but every time I check out who's selling they're always slammed and with stance. I just wish they still looked similar to this, right now the newer Imprezas and WRX's look like Speed3's and Scions TC's. They don't even look like rally cars anymore.

    It would be really nice to be able to see a comparison with the 2006 with the 2007 STI. The 2007 had many changes such as new turbo, longer gearing on 2nd - 4th, limited slip diff, etc. As well as a review on the GC8 STI which is like the god of STI in my opinion.
    If you did a review on every STI year, you can end the "Which year is best STI?" battle. lol

    That was my car. Man I miss my STI. I was working for Subaru in 05 when I 1st saw the new 06. I ordered my 1st and only so far new car in late 05. A black 06 STI . IT WAS A GREAT CAR . I HATED THE INT ! The blue is so cheese . The stock hp of 300hp is not enough. But its easy to tune and make good power. But trying to pay for the car the insurance, Super plus gas,mods and tuning, dyno time is not easy. I WAS CAR POOR AFTER OWNING THIS CAR. This led to me not driving it in winter or bad weather . Just to keep it mint.. In 2010 I sold it . I wish I kept it . But I needed the money for investments for my future . Which worked out GREAT money wise but not fun wise.

    Dude, if you think an Evo clutch is heavy, do not ever even try to drive any older Mustang with an upgraded clutch. The clutch in mine my gf wasn't able to push it in, and my clutch isn't even that extreme of an example. Most people are shocked at how stiff cable operated clutches can be, but I liked them because you can feel the clutch very well and they tend to be easier to maintain and repair if you have problems with the clutch compared to hydraulic systems.

    The 2006-07 STi, is going to be the most iconic version, and probably one of the next best investments Japanese cars to own. Love the black obsidian pearl color the best to, the blue and green metal fleck look awesome in the sun, but gotta have the silver BBS rims with the stupid expensive factory spec re070 tires with the black paint. Kinda funny that year (2006) they dropped the full WRXSTi badge on the trunk, and went with just Impreza one one side and the STi on the other. So many little things were added that year you really gotta look, besides the obvious air plane style wing front grill, headlights, and extra rear mini wing. Starting price of over 32k in 2006 was expensive, funny how little the newer cars haven't really raised the price bar much, hats off to Subie. I miss the fact the older STi models were stripped of most options to save weight. I remember a friend bought a 2004 new, and I was amazed that it didn't have a radio or speakers installed factory standard or as a option. The 2005 fixed that with the 6 disc in dash changer, but I don't think they added anything else until 2008. The newer cars have everything, and probably the weight to go with it, love the styling though.

      I really can't tell you about subaru but if you wanna avoid expensive repairs don't buy a bmw.

      Squirles G The wing and interior are why I'd rather have a standard WRX with STi drivetrain swap. Just totally not my style at all.

    I had always love the evo ix (still saving up for one at the moment), but after seeing my cousin owned a 06 sti. I'm starting to have a change of heart of switching over to a Subaru. I know both cars are great, but the notion of one being better than the other is starting to seem silly now. It just really dawned on me how really great the 06 sti (or any other previous or newer models) really was. If you had never been inside a sti before, test drive one.

    Nice review on this 2006 STI model! I was worried you weren't going to get to review a newer model of the STI or WRX. But still, could it be possible for you to review a 2008 Honda Civic Si sedan please? I love the Si very much and would love to see you review one applying your knowledge to it.

    Depends on the mileage; average price is about 22k. And the blue seats are the only color they come with unless you go for the 07 limited model, which comes with black leather.

  • @MattMaranMotoring
    @MattMaranMotoring  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yeah definitely. I drove it off and on over about 8 hours time, many times driving for well over an hour and never felt uncomfortable once.
