That Evolve hatch has how many pistons in the front brakes? Ten?! It would look even better without the stupid-ass spoiler up top.

nah, each volvo was made by a different company. cant remember the names, but the middle one (silver C30) was done by a German company. I think the Blue and Yellow was IPDs.

I talked to the Cobb rep and he said they lost over 1000lbs off the car from the carbon fiber parts. Would be nice to be driving around in a 300 hp 2000lb car, not to mention that car surely has more then 300 hp but im talking for your average STI owner.

Personality?

The tires are 245/45-18. Not sure of the rim size but I'd guess either 18x8 or 18x8.5

anyway the WRB Fozzy in the pics is a XT Cross Sport Model with the STi catalog thrown at it, JDM Headlight/Taillights and a 6MT. Not necessarily what is/will be available. Subaru did the mock up to gauge interest in such a model.

Does it take a STi badge to make people realize the potential of the Fozzy? I guess its OK, since we pay $150 less a year for Insurance for the FXT than we do for the LGT.

Anyway, can I get some XT Love?

you would have to add at least a another zero on to that 5. That volvo was about as nicely done as I have seen inside and out. I would not doubt that 70-100k would have to be spent to do that
