STi spec C or ESX package
I am desperate for a road race car, and im already missing subys.. i want a spec c if they are to come here or the 425 hp esx car WITH a full factory warranty! Does anyone have any info on these cars, i really want one, and plan on buying another turbo suby before 06... I like my supra, but something about the sound and feeling of the subys ill never get over... anyhow, what im saying is that the raw power i can make now isnt the same as controlled fun i had with the suby, i need both, and i want one of these cars, at reasonable price... if it isnt feasible, i will just "Settle" for an STi, not to say thats a bad thing, but i want a full fledged factory racecar, and i dont really want to do a whole lot of mods with another suby, i want a well sorted track/street car, that has the cool quirky look, and sound ive come to like so much... Any info/help is much appreciated

if you buy the new Turbo mgazine, it has a full article about the STi ESX. it is soooo bad ass and you would never have to modify it. all comes done by the factory.
mods are:
- boost and gas temp gauge mounted by steering wheel
- short throw shifter
- a complete touch screen navigation sytem with a d and dvd player
- 425hp
- ESX/STi stage IV peformance package
- bigger turbo
- upgraded intercooler
- high flow exhaust
- fuel systme upgrade
- enhanced fuel delivery
- enhanced cooling system
- sustom ESX/STi Ecutek ECU tuning
- stainless brake lines
- cross drilled rotors
- BFG G force tires.
also the car comes in pretty red with white racing stripes down the middle. in the interior, everything that is blue on the inside of a regular STI on the ESX it is all red.
the car is supposed to be priced is the mid $40s to loe $50s
to sum it all up. this car is a monster and you truly do not have to touch it in anyway

Both cars are equally badass to me but i think you would have better luck getting your hands on a esx/sti better than a spec-c. Also if i remember correctly the spec-c does not come with ac. and driving around in Florida during the summer without ac. in not my idea of a comfortable car. I also think the esx/sti seems more reliable than if you were to buy an sti and create the same amount of power. My vote is for esx/sti.

the fact that the spec c doesnt have ac isnt a factor cuz he has a 05 dodge ram that is his daily driver. this would pretty much be a track/weekend car.

I saw that article as well. Thought the info was a little vague. Does no specify type of blower, dyno plots, boost, etc. I'm a stickler for details and 55g's is alot of money for a car with such limited information.
