    My wife traded my truck in for this...

    Well my wife wanted a new car, she wanted a awd cause she is a Texas gal. So I gave her the choice of sho, evo, sti, so I could also enjoy it when I have to use it. I was pulling hard for the sho, but she had to have this...

    I'm sure it will be fun, but I really like the interior of the sho. Matter of fact I would of got the evo or sho before the sti. But what can you do.

    I would of got the evo over the wrx, but I figured the sho would be more family friendly and it would look good in the garage murdered out next to my stang.

    I believe the sho(s) are in the mid-high $40k range new.

    Nice ride, but I'd take the SHO. Really nice interior, more power, more room, nicer on the highway.

    All depends on what trim you want. Sho's I was looking at we're around 42 grand
    The other two are under 40.

    The interior on the sho = sex!

    I'm thinking the sti will be a blast come winter.

    I'm a 2x SHO graduate, but I bought a used Lincoln MKS Ecoboost from Woltz & Wind Ford.

    My loaded year-old MKS had 12,000 miles on it and it was over 5-figures cheaper than a new SHO. Granted, the MKS isn't as tossable as an EVO or STi, but it's basically an SHO in a tailored suit. And it seems like a tune and a cool evening will put a SHO or an MKS into the high 12s. Not bad for a car with rear heated seats!

    W&W seems to always have a strong inventory of MKS's... they're cherry picking Ford dealer auctions & lease returns.

    If I wasn't carrying 3 kids around, I'd problably pick one of the little Asian rockets with 3 pedals... but don't be too quick to write off the big American.

    They are really nice rides, I love the wheels.

    I'm still just amazed at how much a new loaded STi is though.

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump
