Nice ride, now you can blend in

I have had a couple of Subies, good cars, but other than being fast there isn't much else.

I'm looking at doing a similar trade soon. I'm looking into the older audi S4's with the bi-turbo engines... those are a lot of fun as well.

yeah it's a downgrade in terms of looks/interior i guess... haha

HAHA it's definitely not as unique as the 8.. but i had a good run with the 8. 2 years is long enough

Depending how this year turns out, I may end up with a 2009 or 2010 WRX. The upgraded turbo makes a big difference and it would make a great fun family car. I'd still keep the 8 of course

be careful with that recirc bov it can cause after fire in the turbo. well thats what i heard. idk if its the same about the models before 08 but i want one but im afraid lol. i got mine for real cheap with 2,000 miles on it. it was a subaru demo car. that fmic is super expensive lol. i wanna get the spt exhaust it sounds beautiful

eh.. that's news to me. the guy that sold me the car said that the recirc is the best BOV for my model.. some of the other ones will damage the engine.
