You took a picture of your speedo while driving @ 160mph. Wow. You got bigger nuts than me....

Note how the STi has the same gauge colors as the FC, 20 years later... +1 for Mazda!

Anywho, Subbie says the top speed is as I posted, but meh, given the speedo is probably inaccurate at top speeds...you were probably right at it?

Nice work. It's nice seeing people that back up their claims.

Um ok thats your loss if you let your manager kill a car you liked. I don't see how that changes what the car is but thanks for your opinion.

Thanks!

My choices were Viper, RX7 and NSX. I had 4 RX7's in the past so I thought I would try the NSX. Now that I'm spoiled I will never consider the Viper again.

STi 's are road going rally cars they don't top anywhere near 180 LMAO... a modena does around 183 topend! Try 145-155. Regaurdless if the 2.5's are the actually rally cars the sti's sti are meant for accel an banging through gears quick. The awd would most likely crap out at 150 or so anyways. I wonder if the diff is switchable while driving?

255 Awhp - 3000lbs - 6 speed doesn't equal 180 LOL

Once an STI hits 5th gear it's in overdrive, which would mean acceleration takes a crap. No doubt you started pulling at 120. Nice kill...?
