I'm planning to trade-in the AW 05 for a new 08, I'm just not sure which color to go with... Stay AW or try out the new red!

i think the red with gold BBS would be amazing!

It only had like 9000 miles on it and was in "Excellent" shape per KBB. I didn't really get to start driving it every day until recently.

I saw the 08 at the dealer where I'm getting my wrx it was nice I like the whole hatchback thing I coming from hondas though I drove the wrx and it was beautiful I can't wait to pick it up. not a huge fan of the taillights on the 08 IMO I think they would look better if they were red not clear like that but otherwise the car looks like an animal

Not trying to threadjack rain... I came from an 03 Civic SI hatchback before my 05 STI, and the 08s remind me of it so much, that's partly the reason I fell in love!

You can get red taillight film from Harman Motive and that solves the taillight problem. I plan on doing that.

$20k for a 05 with 9k miles!!! Damn... I guess I am getting a good deal, $19500 for my 05 with 40k miles.

Na, not really a good deal. Pretty much the going price for an '05 STi in any zip. Just means you got to have more fun driving it than me.
