    Subaru WRX for me. More fun to Auto-X.

    I am torn....

    I like the looks of the Stang....

    But I vote WRX for the fun potential.

    The results are in, and we have a Winner!

    With an 8 to 4 score the Subaru WRX brings home the bacon!

    I honestly expected the Mustang to take the game, but, no dice this time!

    Congratulations Subaru, you took a once great car, turned it into an AWD turbo Toyota, and still won... Even though you dropped your WRC team, your dignity, and any interest I had in your cars, but for people on a $35K budget... You can still sell 8 cars to us!

    Now for my promised Sunday bonus round...


    You get a call from your friend who deals in the car game, and he has an offer for you!

    He says he has a "slightly" totaled Ferrari 458 Italia he has to move fast!

    This is a package deal... For $35K, you get the remnants of the 458, full access to the Ferrari parts bin (Free) the Ferrari tool room (also free) and non hands on technical assistance to rebuild the Ferrari... Down side, it comes as pictured below, and you must do 100% of the rebuild by yourself with no help or shops involved, and you have to take a Scion IQ as your only source of transportation!

    So, would you rather:

    Keep your WRX to modify to your liking...

    Or do you accept your friends offer, get your hands dirty and take:

    This
    [​IMG]

    Plus this, to rebuild as a project car...

    All for $35,000? :)

    I'm guessing the free access to the Ferrari parts bin would evaporate once the car was reassembled. Once the 458 is back to showroom glory and warp capable, it's still a money pit and a maintenance hog.

    It also has the dubious distinction of being the first mainstream Ferrari not to be offered with a manual transmission. No thanks.

    I'd rather have the WRX.

    I would still take the FERRARI and the pos Scion IQ over the STANCE WRX.

    I would hang myself from a door like Robin Williams before I ever drive a STANCE car.

    WRX for me. The Ferrari is just too big of a project.

    Thank you for the coordinating the challenge. It was fun. I looked forward to seeing what cars were competing each day.
