The new 2015 WRX is awesome... the 2015 WRX STi is not that awesome as it is using the old engine and drivetrain from the old Subaru WRX STi.

If buy from grey mkt or second hand car dealer e.g. a used Legacy/WRX Sti ... MI will service or not? If not, go where for servicing?

You can always sell me your scooby if you don't want it and I promise I won't take it back to MI for servicing.

My friends recent encounter with a Honda SA reflects your sentiment of a good SA. She's trying to trade in her old Myvi (9 years) for the new City. Honda SA said their own ' Honda secondhand dealers' has no market for old Myvi but outstation might have. So they put in the extra effort to try to sell the car in Melaka, anywhere as long as it is outside of Kelang Valley to get a better trade-in price. At least they did not stuck up their noses and said that Myvi has no value go sell it yourself. Even H and T SAs are working extra hard to push their cars.

I always thought that trading up will always give better price when you bring the car back and trade it for a newer or better model. I guess that does not apply to Subaru. I guess my business is also going to grey importers too.

MI will service yes but maybe extra price because you does not buy a car from them
Typically people who own car like STI/EVO are performance junkie & have their own contact or they will learn to DIY
For weekend car why don't you consider something that really give you sense of occasion like a Lotus Exige S or something along the line of that
Those are what i call weekend car

Lotus is nice. You should also consider Cayman S as a weekend car too! 

I'm thinking exactly the same thing but what the heck do you mean by 'dual transmission'? 

v10 does not have "dual transmission". I believe you meant DSG type but still not available on v10 or even v11. v11s are now using CVTs. Anyway, the v10s are using 5 speed autos.

Oooo I look. I thought is a 'shiftronic' type/ala dsg sowri...

ya, fc is a serious concern if for daily ride Especially for those do sale one unless deep pocket.

Frens said scooby wrx /evo about to a little over 200km/fulltank on light weight foot?

How did a topic that started with Camry, Accord, Teana and Legacy ended up with Cayman S? 

Hahahhahaha....

TS want a weekend car leh
Weekend car=Something terrible impractical in my book

The new 2015 WRX is awesome... the 2015 WRX STi is not that awesome as it is using the old engine and drivetrain from the old Subaru WRX STi.

TS wanted D-Segment.. then got        by everybody here until Porsche Cayman S came out. 

is there specific reason why the new STI is using back old engine/drive train? not enough confidence for the new DIT/drivetrain systems?

Good question.. only Subaru can answer that. As for the drivetrain, there's always been a big difference between the WRX and WRX STi in the form of 2 LSDs and the DCCD. So you can almost say that the entire drivetrain is different from the standard WRX even in previous generations.

The 2015 WRX gets a new FA engine and gearbox but I guess they haven't have the chance to incorporate that into the STi.

Just like how they went from the GC8 to the New Age scooby. The DCCD wasn't incorporated in the V7 Bugeye STi except for the special types like S202, RA and Spec-C I think. However from V8 onwards all STi have the DCCD as standard.

So I guess we'd just have to wait and see. Maybe the S207 will have it..

P/S I F3cking want the red one!

 

it'll come down to my advice previously: go test drive yourself and you'll get your answer

Arggggggghhhhhh! I warn you my dear good sir, I would have reported you to the admin for propagating automotive p0rn. But then, I am off weak and feeble mind and cannot resist looking at such wonderful p0rn. Hence, let's indulge in this automotive p0rn together.

And it will be on the high end of 200K.. numbers are being thrown around at 276k to 296k... we'd just have to wait and see. Anything less than that will be a bonus.
