you are right that sometimes you car may not fit the purpose you want it to serve

but you need to remember that the man is more important than the car(no matter what car he drives). even if you can rock up at some fancy ball or pick up a pretty girl for a date in a ferrari, its all gonna go downhill from there if you dont have the confidence and character to back it up once you step out of that door.

BUT. Scenario one: You've got a girl whom you've met up with recently, staying in Kenny Hill, with a grand piano in the living room, with glass walls that span from floor to ceiling, loves ballet, learning violin and had parents who frequent charity dinners, listens to classical music, and this girl perhaps taking courses as interior design in UK. YOU'RE asked to come over for dinner. THE PROBLEM IS, you only had a Subaru Impreza WRX which goes from 0-100km/h in 4.7sec. Scenario Two: Your MNC company where you worked in, had throw up a ballroom, cocktail party for the celebration of a grandious project you've just finished, the CEO from US is coming and will personally greet you in front of the Palace of Golden Horses to welcome you, everyone, the press, the Datuks, Datins are there, your boss too. Whispering silently, with champagne in their hands, they're eagerly awaiting for your arival, and you're coming with your wife, who was dressed splendidly in her Giorgio Armani evening dress.THE PROBLEM IS, you only had a Subaru Impreza WRX. Got it? There are times you'd wish you have a 0-100km/h in 6.8secs, and something that'll serve your dinner party as well. :) Subaru is undeniably faster. BUT.

They have to trash the competitor somehow, end of the day its all money. We do have approaches like this in Malaysia, for instance the Hotlink & DiGi war about two years back i think.

Subaru better worry more about the Evo X Paul, you got any info on the Mazda 3 MPS. thats gonna be the next FWD sportscar benchmark after the gti. 190kw and 380Nm of torque at just 3000rpm. the sti doesnt compete in the same class as the GTi. they should used the WRX to compare with the GTi. or at least R32 vs sti.

Check out the MAS and AirAsia ads. MAS says something like 25 reasons why you should fly with MAS --> a, b, c etc etc... Then AirAsia puts up its own ad -> You don't need 25 reasons to fly with us, just one reason to upgrade to AirAsia, sumthing like that.. Nice one guys! malaysia has its own version too.
