Default Wookiee's New STI

So I'm a die-hard VW/Audi man. I graduate this semester and decided I wanted something new that has 4 doors and has some balls. After weighing my options I broke down and decided to go with the STI. I went to the local dealership when I found out they had one in the showroom. I originally thought I wanted the black...but after seeing the WRB in person I said F it!!! I'm sticking with my blue. I have the windows tinted, Tail light overlays on the way, Mud Flaps, an AP, Bluetooth Mic kit so far with a nice quad-tip TBE soon. I'm gonna track down my friend that has an awesome digital, but in the meantime here's current pics that I took with my phone:

^^^ Yeah, that.

The car is sexy. Just like you, the dealer had a silver/dgm/black, and finally blue w/ gold BBS... I was so tempted to just buy the blue, since I miss my old blue SI hatchback.

Decided to stay strong with the Aspen White though. Your car looks beautiful! Why did you go with the silver BBS?

gold wheels isn't really my thing for some reason. i prefer the subtle contrast of silver wheels with tinted windows and head/tail lights. i'm actually thinking about getting them powdercoated black. my brother did the same with his old OZs that are on his Jetta and it completely changed the look of the car.

I saw the photochop of the black on blue, I think that would look hot too... but for BBS straight from the dealer, I really like the blue w/ gold. The silver doesn't look bad, I'd just prefer gold, that's all, personal preference.

Either way, you've got a beautiful car and if I didn't get white, I'd have gotten blue too. Can't wait to see updates when you get the TBE.

Who are you going with? I'm struggling to find catless downpipes, let alone full TBEs right now.

photoshop black on blue == awesome (it is my wallpaper thanks to digitalfriend)

actual black on blue != awesome IMO

it's a toss up between Cobb and Perrin... basically i want a quad-tip that looks stock. and i'm definitely gonna go with catted pipes. don't want no CELs and i don't want the police following me around town.
