The STI vs M2 seems to have been compared ad nauseam. I specifically created a new thread because of the cost similarity between these two specific cars. Personally, I think this particular STI iteration costs $20k more than what it's probably worth, even accounting for its very limited production of 500 units. I'm a previous WRX owner and hold no ill will towards Subaru but this model has been in desperate need of an overhaul for years now. Charging $50k for an STI with a few tweaks makes little sense to me.
I had an '09 STI. Loved it all the way up until the ringland fried. That's 9 years ago and I was still thinking back then that the motor needed a refresh. After the motor had to be rebuilt I moved on to a 335i and have never looked back. Fun car, but as everyone has already said, super outdated through and through.
