I was a responsible kid so I tried do everything in the right order; education, job, bought a house, now the car. It finally happened and I'm loving it.

Here's a pic (looks like all the others, but this one is mine )

I did the same thing...almost. I had an '02 WRX to hold me over through college/marriage/home buying/awesome job....

World Rally Blue Mica - a good color. I'm glad they brought it back.

I'm coming from a Geo Prizm (), and then a Scion TC. I'm not used to this much power. It's going to take quite a while for me to even consider adding power, although I do like the added bonus of Valet Mode and Immobilizer with the AP, so I may end up doing that.

My main concern is reliability. Since I'm no good working under the hood, I'd hate for something to break and then have to cry about it while some mechanic charges me an arm and a leg for my ignorance.

I am interested in getting new rims (in order to wrap in winter tires), and some kind of solution for the ugly (IMO) tail lights.


And thanks to everyone for the kind words. Its greatly appreciated. A warm welcome indeed. I love the subaru fanbase. My kind of people.

Lol, really. I'm 23, did the young/dumb thing and bought my car before the house... oh well, it should be payed off within 3 years, plus I'll probably end up moving soon.
