New(er) cars have fewer problems due to improvements in engineering (hopefully) and also the age factor. All cars will have their issues, but as a car ages it will of course have more and more.

AllState. I compared Evo/STi/03+Cobra. The Cobra was $187, the Sti was $175 and the Evo was $164/month. I wanted the Evo anyways so it turned out good for me.

I've had a real hard time finding any EVO's. The last one I bid on and lost, the dealer that bought it ended up selling it at a loss. I was the high bidder on a mint used STi last week, I didn't get it though. The STi's come through about one or two a week, I haven't seen an EVO for months.

If you're planning on leaving your next car all stock I'd go with the STi, since they're more comfy like some people have said. IMO

Put an insanely long and very unequal length header on any turbo 4 cylinder is it will sound like that. When you put an equal length header on a Subie then you lose that sound. The header setups they have to run on those cars also make them laggy, so they run tiny turbos. You also can't rev those motors without putting a shit load of money into the heads, so don't plan on just bumping the revlimiter up to 8000+RPMs to make up for the lag.

There is an interesting thread on another board about Subie people all of a sudden starting to jump ship over to the Evo side.

Re: DSM Farewell

I say MKIV Supra's are harder to find then a SC300. Besides the 300 is one hell of a sleeper if you get the turbo kit for it. 03-04 Cobra's are alright in my book. i hate that body style. I like the 5.0's alot better..and the new Stangs are sweet. Go find a FD RX ... Rotory FTW....

I hope so on that. My 92 Talon at Full Coverage is about 260 ever six months. And Liabilty its 150 every six months. Cheaper then the Festiva at 180 or so. I love Allstate.

I would say so. I have plenty of violations and mine was still only $180 or so for my 90 AWD.
