Go with the 05. Best body style and the performance from 04-07 has pretty much been the same with only very minor changes. 07 supposedly have better flowing heads though so Idk.

07 sti's have a VF43, opposed to the earlier VF39's. They say you can get slightly more out of it then the VF39, I think because their is not an issue with boost creep and its not known for the wastegate crack. correct me if im wrong tho. Also I believe the 07 has longer gear ratios... BUTT all that is only if you can afford an 07 STi

It really depends on if your going with a WRX or an STI.
STI - 05 WRX - 06, 07 for the 2.5L The 07 STI tranny has better gearing, but there have been reports of 07 sti's with motor problems.

if this discussion is specifically about STis, hen the differences are really the 04 - 05+06 - and the 07.
The 04 is the 1st year of the US STi. it uses the same suspension as the WRX, but with different geometry for the rear. The bolt pattern for the wheels is 5x100. The interior is the traditional 02+ WRX dashoard which is a split style. The door cards are also the same as the 02-04 WRX but adds a blue suede insert over the regular seat upholstery. In 05, the STi got a minor facelift inside, outside, and suspension wise. The headlights while still having amber inserts, have a darker chrome inside of them. the rear fenders add a trim piece to give a bit of extra dimension, the suspension is completly revamped, and the hub pattern is now 5x114 (better fitment for baller wheels). The interior is an updated design with a new one piece center console which has more of a flow to it & people seem to like it more than previous years. The door cards are also a new design with more fabric used to trim the door card then previous models. The engine is slightly updated from what I understand, but the big difference is the gearing in the 6 speed tranny. the 05 has newer gearing which most people agree is nicer than the 04 gearing. The 06 is the same as the 05 STi with the exception of the front end - and the tailights. The 06 has the "pig nose" front end which is the 3 piece style. The tailights are also now the "euro" style which is clear with red & amber inserts. The 07 is the same as the 06, but the engine & tranny have been tweaked a bit more. Supposedly the 07 has better flowing heads & a few other goodies - but also a more complicated ECU which can make for more difficult tuning. The 07 also has newer gearing in the 6 speed tranny which is said to be the best gearing yet. I know there are a few things I am missing, and some things I could have elaborated on more - but I will let others pick up where I left off. Last edited by WKderF; 02-04-2008 at 02:48 PM. |
