I find this new Forester STI really cool. It's a very suitable vehicle for the bad climate and the bad road of Canada.

Somebody knows if this vehicule will be on sale in North America?

The porsche brakes are Carbon Ceramic and actually weigh less than regular brakes. I doubt youd understand this since you tend to suck at life.
I am fully aware of the weight savings on ceramic brakes, but the 6 piston calipers are not ceramic and they are heavy so no need to put them on if you only need 4 pistons...
It goes the same for the discs, cuz when you dont need more than 10 inch ceramic brakes to have the stopping power you need, 15 inches weighs more and are a waste......

I doubt you understand this as you belive that bigger is better in every aspect of life......

Oh and not every porsche brakes are ceramic either, mine are not.....
I hate to admit, but Brembo is right. Although he is very mean
