Hey ben,

so I have a question for you, how do you deal with not being able to drive that can on the street all the time? I mean you paid a good deal for a NICE car, doesnt it ever get to you that you cant drive it on the street? I track my car a fair amount and absolutly love it as a track car. However the further and further i get into modding my car, the less and less streetable she becomes. I have a fear in the back of my head, one day I'll need a real daily driver.

you have a wrx wagon and/or the F150 as a daily driver right?

You know something that might tie the front end together would be if you could find white STi stickers for the foglights, and maybe paint the STi in the grill white as well. Either way the car looks really good.

Great thread and nice progression on the car. I gotta say though, your neighbors MUST look at you a little funny with that car out in the street!

This guy might have hit the jackpot here......it would not look that bad at all.

I'm either going to take off the STI stickers or put white ones on. This is a great idea. Thanks!

Yes, I use the F150 as the daily driver now. I sold the wagon to get it .

I definitely miss driving it on the street...sometimes I get a bit naughty and drive it for 10 minutes on the street when I can't take it anymore . If I could afford it, I would buy another STI to daily drive, they are just too much fun. I've kind of gotten used to driving the F150 every day, but it's certainly not "fun" to drive .

I would have done some more extensive "testing" but I generally can't drive for more than 10 minutes before the cops start looking for the car . Today might have been a new record actually; 5 minutes until I saw 2 cops and had to turn around.
hahahahahahahahah

Just out of curiosity do you think I can have your car?
