Thats a sweet vid. My two favorite cars (but i'm biased as I have both of them). But I must add that sure the fd's handle as good as the sti because they have a modded suspension vs a stock one on the sti. If you were to mod the sti to the same level of performance as your fd then I would have to say that the sti would be untouchable on the turns. But thats just my opinion. (Flame suit on!!)

. but then again my opinion may be a little biased also

Sweet Video!

Sweet Video!
I am also a huge fan of the STI. Great perfomance and you can still take the family out in the snow.
I like when you picked up the pace in the end.
This Video is just what I needed to hold me over while KDR finishes my car.
