I haven't had my 2004 9-5 Aero long enough to have any major run-ins. But a newer Toyota Celica (don't know the exact model, didn't get a good look) tried to jump me off of a double left hand turn onto a highway.
Once he figured out I wasn't backing down, all I could hear was his massive exhaust as he downshifted. I pulled about 1 car length on him before I hit my turnoff, and that was from a stop up to 120km/h.
I think once I got into 3rd gear, the gap would have widened significantly.
An STI would have wasted me, especially from a stop.
