New WRX

[PClark99]

Picked it up last night and I am 1 happy camper, first new car in over a decade.

Dark Grey Metallic. Base Model with Popular Package #1.

Nice!

I would have loved to get something like that but I drive too many miles for a car like that to be practical.

Congrats!

Thanks.

Right now I currently have a work truck that my company gives me so I don't accrue alot of miles on the personal vehicle.

My Mustang GT I just sold was a 2000 I got it new and it only had a hair over 75k miles.

Though I think I will find a way to drive this a bit more.

Time to join the other various forums. I-club, nasioc, iwsti, etc. If only for the classified sections.

I know, my brother has already been sending me the links and picking out mods for me.



He has an 08 STI.

Gratuitous :awe:

Could have waited what Subaru has to offer in their next model.

 

[Aharami]

congrats! I almost bought the exact same car!
i think the current WRX and STI look absolutely fantastic!! Only if it wasn't at the end of its lifecycle and the interior wasn't so blah. Been holding out for the next WRX for a while now...c'mon Subaru!!

BTW, the first pic makes it seem like the paint has a hint of blue in it. A Grey/blue pearl paint would look nice on this car!

Nice ride! I've wanted to get my hands on an AWD turbo-buggy for a while now. I think once the Stang is completely paid off (only a year left to go) I'll look into something similar.

Enjoy!

Great color choice! (Although I am a little biased).

My 2008 outback xt is DGM, too. DGM is a strange color, it seems to change a lot depending on your environment.

call me fruity but I like that STI in the purplish blue

Great looking ride! Oh I so miss my 2006 Legacy GT wagon...

Yeah. In direct sunlight it is very grey, but then looks almost black at night. I really like the color, and there is just enough metallic to add a little something as well.

Congrats OP.

 

[exar333]

OP - did you get the short-throw shifter? The stock shifter was a POS and it was night and day after getting the STi shifter (Kartboy is also supposed to be really good). My dealership installed it at cost when I got the car. Made a huge difference.

Nice choice. I traded in an 05 sti for the same car as yours (albeit a couple years older), and I love it. The hatchback is great for hauling miscellaneous items, and it is a blast in the snow. Be sure to look into some winter tires if it came with the stock summer dunlops. Hopefully there will be some good deals over the summer.

Nice! Spitting image of my wife's car.

I'm still waiting on mine to come in from ordering it.

 

[PClark99]

To respond to everyones comments and questions.

1. I couldn't wait for the new model, I sold my Mustang on Sunday and needed a car.

2. Stock shifter, coming from my mustang it isn't so bad. I might get the short throw shifter eventually.

3. Thanks for all the kind words.

That paint looks blue! Guess it's the lighting
