i really like it, im still getting used to all the space inside, and of course the hatchback part too.

the power is really nice im hopefully getting stage 2 within the next couple months so it should be fun. i still have my 06 wrx that i would like to turn into a dedicated track car.

so we will have to see how this one comes along. ill keep you guys posted.

Yeah, I sat in a white on gold one and hated the interior. The seats are even worse now support wise.
Nice looking car though, OP. What exhaust are you going to get, and why did you get the BBS's if you are going to buy Advans?

I believe with an aftermarket exhaust, you could gain a lot. I mean with all the weight of the stock exhaust (the y pipe, the extra muffler) I believe you could shed a lot of unused weight. This is all based on my speculation of course.

Looking good! I think the interior is very slick.

Advan RG2s don't come an 18x9.5.

you could do the 9" with zero issue. 18x9 +45mm and a 255/35/18 would be nice on an 08.

from the looks of it so far 18x9.5 +40 to +45mm seems to be ideal with a 265/35/18.

Beautiful car, good luck with it.

Maybe he wanted navi? I think you have to buy the bbs to be able to get the navi. I could have it the wrong way around, though. I pretty sure one depends on the other though.

Love the dash, hate the seats, love the headlights, hate the tails, love the fenders, hate the hatch

Enjoy man. For the exhaust are you having to go with LGT stuff or are there 08 parts already out?

I would go with 19X9" ET38 Advan RS's in silver. The new STi's fenders engulf 18" wheels.
