Can't Imagine

I just can't imagine driving any other car than what I currently have.

My MX3 and RX8 for you to see.

Thanks Maniac for making this thread more than useless. Which one is faster? I'd put my dollar on the one in the middle.

The MX-3 ran the 1/4 in 13.79 @ 107 MPH. It dyno'ed at just short of 300 HP at the wheels. Big traction problems.

However, the Miata is faster. 13.59 @ 105 MPH.

Poor RX-8 hasn't seen an actual dragstrip, yet.

I'm not sure. I can't tell an STI from a regular WRX most of the time.
Last time I had the Miata at the strip, it must have been "Subaru Day" because there were dozens of them.
I only lined up against 6 or 7 different ones, but the result was pretty much the same for them all in that I couldn't see them anymore by mid track.

For future reference:

regular WRX = beat by the ugly stick (smaller flare spoiler, small hood scoop)

STI WRX = the ugly stick itself (giant box spoiler, huge hood scoop)

Now before Ike flames me .... I love the WRX, awesome car (especially the STI), just a little ugly on the outside.

I agree the Subaru Impreza is ugly. Sort of looks like a blue cinderblock with a body kit.
But the details that separate the the regular WRX from the STI are hard to determine once the car is behind me and off to one side.

Long Thread

Wow,
I did'nt even think that one post from me would start such a long thread discussion.

No wonder I'm called Picasso.

Gandu/Martha -
Love your lineup - I had an '01 stock miata that probably ran in the high 18's!
