I'm 34. I just bought my second STi in less than a year ('05 CGM) after doing something stupid like trading my '04 Black back in November. Now I know the errors of my way and hope to keep the car long enough to have mods.

I’m 18 and I bust my ass 6 days a week working two jobs to own what I have and I'm still in school. Nothing was handed to me but my insurance payment which I feel is fair since my parents bought my sister 3 cars in the past 5 years. I take pride in the feeling that I have the nicest car in school and I worked and paid for it. Maybe I can afford all this with the lack of bills since I still live with my parents.

You know not all 20 year olds are handed everything in life...some of us worked very hard for what we have. So try not to judge a book by its cover
well said. I will admit, my parents helped me pay for the car but I paid for most of it myself. I worked 50-60 hours a week for a long time to make enough money to get this car, and I also work hard to pay for my mods. Luckily, I have held off for a little while so I have enough money saved for coilovers and a TBE. I think it helps that other than day to day spending money I don't have too many other expenses since when I'm not in school I live at home.

You have one of the sickest STis I've ever seen. You make me regret not going with black! Too bad my area is too dusty.

Nah, it looks great the way it is. It matches your dog - Black body, bronze feet!
