    Default Sold my STi and got two new rides! ^o^

    First I got a sr20 240sx. Needs paints...but looks ok for now. I plan on painting it black. Car has super clean interior and drives perfect.










    Next, I bought a 04 Yamaha r1. It's super clean and rides perfect. Only
    has 8k miles. I will be changing the exhaust out. It's so ugly. lol. It
    came with alot of extras also.










    My old STi with 110,xxx miles. It has a UGLY body kit that needed alot of
    work and has alot of miles.










    Let me know what you think. Would you have kept the STi or have both of
    these AND have some extra cash to pocket.

    That's exactly how I bought the sti... I would of kept it but it has too many miles and I couldn't find OEM bumpers anywhere. If I did, they wanted wayyy to much.

    Kept STI, that kit actually looks good fixed, but i am sure u made a quick buck flipin it. Makin money is always better. That motor in Subaru is reliable at 106k it still had plenty left if u took care of it.

    Jesus, I hope your 240 never looks like that. This is assuming you're the one that fucked up the sti.

    Edit: Saw the post above mine. Glad you got rid of it lolol.

    I think I would have kept the STi and fix it up a little. But the ride and bikes nice, stay safe.

    Fenders has dents and a little rust. Front bumper was fucked... Sideskirts was cracked/rashed. Idk. I didn't want to spent too much fixing it up and later down the road, it breaks down.

    04 R1 is a great bike!! I had an 06. Please change out that cheap Shinko rear tire while you're changing out exhaust canisters.

    Good deal w/ the 2 for 1.

    He's saying he has the stock Yamaha R1 mufflers punched out w/ race baffles. Sounds and performs almost like a slip on. It's a common mod among R1 owners. Actually pretty easy and cheap b/c R1 exhaust parts are very expensive compared to other Jap. bikes. I had full stainless steel Termignoni then swapped out to a full race spec titanium Akrapovic. The bike was an absolute beast!!

    I would have kept the STi, changed the body kit some, new suspension and nice rims. If you take care of a car they can last up to 300k miles easily. Then when you get a family it has 4 doors so putting the kids in the back seat is easy. Then use it as a dd when it gets high mileage. 100k miles on a car isnt much, this is when it shows how you took care of the car and what need servicing. .
